Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Study of Roman History The aim of this little book is different. As a tutor in Roman History, I have at times been accused by worried pupils of delighting over much in the heuristic method. This simply means that I like asking them questions and dislike impart ing information in tabloid shape. This is really the main object of this book also - to ask questions, to suggest to any student who may read it subjects for his own consideration and research. It has certainly not been my primary object to tell once more the often-repeated tale of Rome's history. To be in charge of a working-party in a trench has some advantages as well as responsibilities. To direct, to encourage, at times to take a hand this is similarly my desire in this book. Above all, it is meant to provoke enquiry, if not dissent, by the workers (a proceeding viewed with less favour in a trench). I hope that its main feature may turn out to be as it were a menu to the banquet. If taken as the banquet itself it will be Barmecide fare.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Studies in Roman History Finally I wish to express my great obligations to my friend Mr. Rolfe, without whose assistance this volume could never have been prepared.

Download or read book The Private Life of the Romans Classic Reprint written by Harold Whetstone Johnston and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-24 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Private Life of the Romans On the other hand it is equally true that a knowledges of political history is necessary for the study of Private Antiquities. We shall find the Romans giving up certain ways of living and habits of thinking that seemed to have become fixed and characteristic. These changes we could not explain at all, if political history did not inform us that just before they took place the Romans had come into contact with the widely different ideas and opposing civilizations of other nations. The most important event of this sort was the introduction of Greek culture after the Punic wars, and to this we shall have to refer again and again. It follows from all this that students who have had even the most elementary course in Roman history have already some knowledge of Private Antiquities, and that those who have not studied the history of Rome at all will find very helpful the reading of even the briefest of our school histories.

Download or read book Outlines of Roman History written by William C. Morey and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-21 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Outlines of Roman History: For the Use of High Schools and Academies In tracing the growth of the Roman people, the effort has been made to keep clearly and prominently in view that which has given to this people their distinctive place in history, the genius for organization. The kingdom, the republic, and the empire are seen to be successive stages in the growth of a policy to bring together and organize the various elements of the ancient world. Attention is paid to the life and cus toms of the Roman people - their houses, meals, dress, mar riage and funeral customs, education, etc. But these have not been made so prominent as to lead the pupil to believe that the study of antiquities can take the place of the study of history in the proper sense of the word. Special attention is called to the maps, which are intended to show the location of every place mentioned in the text. The series of progressive maps shows in a clear way the gradual expansion of the Roman dominion. For the purpose of encouraging the reading of other books, each chapter is supplemented by two short lists of reading references, the one applying to the general subject-matter of the chapter, under the name of Selections for Reading; and the other consti tuting a Special Study upon some especially important or interesting topic. A classified list of the most valuable and available books in the English language upon Roman history will be found in the appendix to this volume. Every experi enced teacher knows that history cannot be adequately taught by means of any single book, and that too much importance cannot be attached to the use of suitable bibliographical aids.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a historical novel by the American classical scholar, Frank Frost Abbot. It deals with the lives of the Roman common people, their language and literature, their occupations and amusements, and with their social, political and economic conditions. We are interested in the common people of Rome because they made the Roman Empire what it was. They carried the Roman standards to the Euphrates and the Atlantic: they lived abroad as traders, farmer and soldiers to Romanize the provinces. Or they stayed at home, working in different professions to supply the needs of the capital.

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.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Greek and Roman Civilization: With an Introduction to the Source Study Method The pedagogy of the last half of the nineteenth century differs both in matter and in method from that of the first half. Our age is scientific above all things, and this spirit has permeated, one by one, all branches of instruction. The change in matter has consisted in a revolt against the claims of the classics to a monopoly of all knowledge and all discipline. The revolt was successful and the classics were relegated to their proper place in the new curriculum. Henceforth they are to form a part and not the whole of education. Through the breach thus made new studies entered demanding their share of attention. In truth, some of them demanded more than their share, and for a time, under the influence of the reactionary spirit, the movement threatened to go too far in the opposite direction and to abandon the classics entirely. Rut the new matter was not more important than the new method. With the sciences came the scientific spirit and the laboratory method. The old method, or lack of method, presided at the birth of the new studies, but the textbook recitation was at first supplemented by experiments performed before the class, and at last by experiments performed by the class, and the change was complete.

Hence I have quoted freely the most picturesque stories of Virgil, Livy, Suetonius, and have sought to illustrate notable events by the vivid words of the Roman orators. In a succession of stories and historical explanations, I have hoped to lead the young student on to his academic and collegiate studies in such a way as to make his higher education an agreeable prospect and a classical course of study a delight. And to such as cannot secure a higher education in the usual way, I have sought to give a popular introduction to the best classical reading and to awaken in the minds of all young readers a love for the best.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Roman Mosaics: Or Studies in Rome and Its Neighbourhood Many of the points touched upon have pro voked endless disputations which are not likely soon to be settled. Indeed there is hardly any line of study one can take up in connection with Rome which does not bristle with controversies; and a feeling of perplexity and uncertainty con tinually haunts one in regard to most of the subjects. It is not only in the vague field of the early traditions of the city, and of the medieval traditions of the Church, that this feeling op presses one; it exists everywhere, even in the more solid and assured world of Roman art, literature, and history. Where it is so difficult to arrive at settled convictions, I may be par doned if I have expressed views that are open to reconsideration.
