Of the scope' and aim of the book I have written in the Introduction; but I have a few further remarks to make, which seem to belong rather to a preface.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Outlines of Ancient History: From the Earliest Times to the Fall of the Western Roman Empire, A. D. 476 It is a very general complaint that the Manuals of History put into the hands of students are dry and uninteresting. The complaint is not unfounded. Such introductory works are too often mere crowded inventories of events, and so not only fail awakening an intelligent interest in what should be the most engaging of studies, but repel and dishearten the student. If this fault has been avoided, and the narrative is connected and interesting, still the perspective is almost sure to be false id misleading, and the picture of early times foreshortened and distorted. Usually all that lies back of Grecian annals is compressed into a few pages, where everything is lost - or rather brought into being - in a sort of creative nimbus. Indeed, in several works in extensive use in our schools, that vast background is treated as a kind of Hyperborean region, being filled indiscriminately with all manner of myths and legends, until there is no more rational connection between the story thus told of the men and agencies of those early times and the history of later periods than exists between the double writings of the palimpsest. One of our objects, then, in preparing the present volume is to join hands with those who are laboring to turn that period to use in education, and give it that character and prominence in the manual which it has assumed in the larger works of all our best historical scholars. Moreover, we conceive History to be a worthier thing than a trivial record of court intrigues and genealogies.

This little book is written to meet a need that I believe exists in many college mediaeval history classes. Experience in my own teaching work con vinces me that to understand the Middle Ages it is necessary to know something of the progress and fall of that great Empire whence feudal Europe issued, and no compact and practical sketch, suitable for the study of the average student, has come to hand. Hence the present outline history. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Ancient Rome from the Earliest Times to 476 A D written by Robert Pennell and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2015-12-05 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pennell was a 19th century classics scholar and schoolmaster, and this is his comprehensive look at Ancient Rome from its founding to the collapse of the Western Roman Empire in the late 5th century. From the preface: "This compilation is designed to be a companion to the author's History of Greece. It is hoped that it may fill a want, now felt in many high schools and academies, of a short and clear statement of the rise and fall of Rome, with a biography of her chief men, and an outline of her institutions, manners, and religion. For this new edition the book has been entirely rewritten, additional matter having been introduced whenever it has been found necessary to meet recent requirements. The penults of proper names have been marked when long, both in the text and Index. The Examination Papers given are introduced to indicate the present range of requirement in leading colleges. The maps and plans have been specially drawn and engraved for this book. The design has been to make them as clear and open as possible; consequently, names and places not mentioned in the text have, as a rule, been omitted."
Download or read book Ancient Rome written by Robert F. Pennell and published by . This book was released on 2020-06-13 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Rome has grown since its humble beginnings that it is now overwhelmed by its own greatness." -Titus Livius (59 BC - 17 AD) The term Ancient Rome refers to the city of Rome, which was located in central Italy; and also to the empire it came to rule, which covered the entire Mediterranean basin and much of Western Europe. This book is a detailed treatise on Roman history from the earliest times down to 476 AD. Highly detailed, this book constitutes a veritable small encyclopaedia and it includes a chronology. Whether a child with a voracious appetite for "all things Roman", or an adult interested in binge-boning up on Roman history, this book is a perfect start. The ancient Romans left a treasure trove of ideas to the modern world. This legacy included many concepts that are still very important even today. Systems of laws and government, architecture, literature, and language are just a few key concepts brought to us by none other than the Ancient Romans. Large print edition.
