Download or read book The Romance of History England Vol 1 of 3 Classic Reprint written by Henry Neele and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-04 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Romance of History England, Vol. 1 of 3 The following Tales are all founded upon facts in English history. The aid of fiction has, indeed, been made use of, but no important historical event has been falsified; and where the Author has wandered farthest from strict fact, he has yet endeavoured to be true to the spirit and manners of the age in which the scene is laid. It will also be found, that the most marvellous and improbable of the events narrated in these volumes, are by no means the least authentic. "Le vrai," says a French author, "n'est pas toujours le vraisemblable." A few of the Tales refer rather to the history of foreign nations than of England, as "The Rings" does to that of France, and "The Starry Tower" to that of Spain; all, however, have some degree of reference to English history, and if in one or two instances the reader should find this link of conexion a somewhat slight one, it is hoped that the historiette will not, on that account, be condemned, if in other respects it should merit approbation.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of Normandy and of England, Vol. 3 My Dear Sir, You have honoured me with your kind permission that I should explain, in a few words addressed to yourself, the circumstances in which the Third and Fourth Volumes of this History are now published. The Fourth Volume was printed throughout (with exception of the "Summary") several years since. Some corrections in it were afterwards planned by my father; but it represents, on the whole, his maturest judgment on the events narrated. The completion of the Third Volume (postponed for personal reasons to the composition of the Fourth), had formed the author's occupation during the leisure hours of the last four years of his life. Great part had been written previously; and it was his wish to revise the whole, incorporating in it the fruits of additional study and of visits to the scenes of the principal events described. Death, however, in July 1861, stayed his hand when this revision had been completed only to the end of Chapter III. From this point onwards (Chapters IV to XV), the book has been edited by me.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of Normandy and of England, Vol. 4 § 1. We have seen how William the Conqueror has been gathered to his fathers. Usual pageantries ensued: loud praises bestowed upon the departed monarch by those who enjoyed his bounty or profited by his patronage. Poets abounded in court and cloister, expatiating upon his merits, vying with one another in composing the epitaph, worthy to be inscribed upon the rich tomb at Caen, raised between presbytery and choir, concealing William's last conquest, his contested grave. A splendid work was this memorial, studded with gems, and covered with the plates of precious metal hammered and embossed by Ottone, the Goldsmith - Otto Aurifaber in the pages of Domesday.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Church History, Vol. 2 of 3 The Norwegians had, at a Very early period, by means of the adventurous raids of their seafaring youth, by means of Christian prisoners, and also by means of intercourse with the Norse colonies in England and Normandy, gained some knowledge of Christianity. The first Christian king of Norway was Haco the Good (a.d. 934 who had received a Christian education at the English court. Only after he had won the fervent love of his people by his able government, did he venture to ask for the legal establishment of the Christian religion. The people, however, compelled him to take part in heathen sacrifices. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book The Loss of Normandy 1189 1204 written by F. M. Powicke and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-16 with total page 672 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Loss of Normandy (1189-1204): Studies in the History of the Angevin Empire From one point of view, all that I have written is a commentary upon Thomas Stapleton's Observations on the Great Rolls of the Exchequer of Normandy. I join with Mr. Round in admiration for that great antiquary. His work was taken up and carried on by the young Leopold Delisle more than fifty years ago; and the frequent references to their work in the following pages testify both to the value of their labours and to the later neglect of Norman history.2 I owe most to Professor Haskins of Harvard, amongst modern scholars. He has kindly read several of the early chapters and given me much valuable criticism. Moreover, his essays upon the history of Normandy in the eleventh and early twelfth centuries are a sure foundation for any work upon a later period. The knowledge that he was continuing his elaborate labours upon Norman charters has justified me in limiting the scope of the chapter upon Norman administration. My friends and teachers, Professor Tout, Professor Tait and Mr. H. W. C. Davis have added to a long series of kindnesses by reading and advising me upon various parts of the book. To Mr. Tout's unwearying encouragement I feel especially that I could never do justice in a preface My friend Professor Weaver, of Trinity College, Dublin, has also been good enough to read one or two chapters.
