Book The History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire  Vol  4 of 12  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire Vol 4 of 12 Classic Reprint written by Edward Gibbon and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-30 with total page 450 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire Vol. 4 of 12 is one volume of a larger series crafted by the famous historian Edward Gibbon. In this volume, Gibbon continues his exploration of the Roman Empire, and re-establishes the importance of this civilization in terms of world history. Gibbon's career in history is culminated in these volumes, and his expansive expertise in this area of history makes these books an invaluable resource for any student and scholar of history. Gibbon's ultimate goal is to determine the specific factors behind the collapse of the Roman Empire, and to illuminate those clues throughout the text. His main argument rests on the importance of the Catholic Church in both Roman history and in the myriad of ways Christianity affected the Roman Empire. To Gibbon, a combined effort between barbarian invasions and the new religious belief system (based on a better life after this one rather than on the wrath of vengeful gods) caused Romans to allow their civilization to die through war and apathy. According to Gibbon, by bowing to outside forces, and by rejecting the traditional martial spirit of Roman life for a more religious lifestyle, Romans stood idly by as outsiders decimated their civilization. The History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire Vol. 4 of 12 is a complex and complete evaluation of the Roman Empire by Edward Gibbon. Before beginning work on the text, Gibbon knew what evidence for the fall of the Empire he wanted to illuminate and he does so artfully throughout the text. By the end of the volume it's clear what his argument is and that the rest of the series will continue to promote Gibbons thoughts on the Empire. The books still stand out as wonderful references for individuals interested in Roman history and world powers.

This book was released on 2017-10-21 with total page 700 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire, Vol. 2 of 5 The unfortunate Licinius was the last rival who opposed the greatness, and the last captive who adorned the triumph, of Constantine. After atranquil and prosperous reign, the conqueror bequeathed to his family the inheritance of the Roman empire; a new capital, a new policy, and a new religion; and the innovations which he established have been embraced and consecrated by succeeding generations. The age of the great Constantine and his sons is filled with impor tant events; but the historian must be Oppressed by their number and variety, unless he diligently separates from each other the scenes which are connected only by the order of time. He will describe the political institutions that gave strength and stability to the empire, before he proceeds to relate the wars and revolutions which hastened its decline. He will adopt the division unknown to the ancients of civil and ecclesiastical affairs the victory of the Christians, and theirmtestine discord, will supply copious and distinct mate rials bo'th for edification and for scandal.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire, Vol. 1 of 12 His residence at Lausanne was very useful to him. He had access to books in abundance, and his tutor, who was a man of great good sense and amiability but of no remarkable capacity, very judiciously left his industrious pupil to pursue his studies in his own way. Hiving wisdom with each studious year, as Byron so truly says, he speedily amassed a store of learning which has seldom been equalled. His in satiable love of knowledge, his rare capacity for concentrated, accurate, and fruitful study, guided by a singularly sure and masculine judgment, soon made him, in the true sense of the word, one of the best scholars of his time.
