Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lectures on Ancient Ethnography and Geography, Vol. 2 of 2: Comprising Greece and Her Colonies, Epirus, Macedonia, Illyricum, Italy, Gaul, Spain, Britain, the North of Africa, Etc This View entertained by the Greeks, though one-sided, is so attractive and seductive, that one easily allows one's self to be captivated by it, especially as we have no detailed account of the natives of Italy to Oppose to it. But amid a countless number of particular subjects requiring critical treatment in ancient history, people have forgotten to ask, How did the natives come to use this name? And this question changes our point of view. We have, indeed, no, ancient Roman monuments on this subject, but we know for certain, that after the beginning of the seventh century, the name Italy was applied by the Romans to the whole peninsula, as far as Cisalpine Gaul; nay, Polybius extends it even to the foot of the Alps. The name Italy is very ancient, and occurs in the earliest fragments known to us; it is manifestly of native origin, and was habitually used by the Romans in their official language. What then were the limits set to it by the Romans? Did they consider themselves to be living beyond the boundaries of Italy about the middle of the fifth century when the Greeks drew their line of demarcation? If the Samnites and Etruscans were beyond that line, What was the name they applied to the Whole of the peninsula? Almost all the coins discovered.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lectures on Ancient Ethnography and Geography, Comprising Greece and Her Colonies, Vol. 1 of 2 The Lectures here offered to the English public were delivered by Niebuhr in the university of Bonn during the winter of 1827 - 28, and were published by Dr. Isler at Berlin in 1851. The German editor, in a short preface, remarks, that for a time he hesitated as to the propriety of publishing the present course of Lectures unabridged, because from its very nature the historian had been obliged here to treat of many topics which are discussed in the Lectures already published. But a regard for those readers who may not be possessed of the volumes containing the other courses of Lectures, and at the same time a desire to keep each course complete in itself, induced him to give the lectures uncurtailed and as complete as he found them in the ms. Notes. It must also be borne in mind that Niebuhr, delivering his discourses extempore, cannot be said exactly to have repeated what he had said on previous occasions; but that, generally, the statements made in one course of Lectures rather supplement and complete those put forth at another time. The relation in which the present English version stands to the German original is precisely the same as that described in my Preface to the Lectures on Ancient History but the present volumes differ from the previous ones in so far as they do not appear in the form of Lectures. This is owing to the fact that the division into Lectures is not marked either in the German edition or in any of the sets of notes which I had opportunities of collating. The want of such a division, in this instance, is perhaps scarcely to be regretted, because the subject itself renders division and subdivision absolutely necessary; and if the merely accidental division into Lectures had been added, it would frequently disturb rather than assist the reader. Many of the localities and countries here described have been more fully explored since the delivery of these Lec tures, and much information might accordingly have been added in notes; but I have thought it right to adhere to the principle which I have followed ln the publication of the Lectures on Ancient and on Roman History, as it is not my object to furnish complete treatises on these subjects, but to preserve and bring before the public the views and Opinions of a man who still stands unrivalled as an historical inquirer.
