Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Outlines of Medieval History In writing an outline of European history, much of the labour of the writer must be employed in brevity of statement and in rigorous selection of matter, in omissions of what is interesting in itself and valuable for the science of humanity. In the choice of events to narrate I have been guided by their far-off results, rather than by their immediate eclat in their own time, and have tried to indicate how in the Middle Ages were accomplished the growth of modern man and the life and attitude to life of modern times. A sketch, too, must of necessity be sketchy, on the one side positive and over-clear where discreet shadows should be infused in a larger picture, on the other summary where the complexities of character or institution deserve a minuter etching. I trust, however, that the story has not wholly lost the interest of its theme, of the human strivings and the wild but purposeful convulsions by which modern Europe was made. The maps have been designed to illustrate, first, as in 2, 3, 4 and 7, the main political features of the period, and secondly, as in i, 2, 4 and 6, the factors in civilization and nationality which had so great a share in forming its history. By kind permission of the Syndics of the University Press and of Archdeacon Cunningham, Map 6, Trade-routes in the XIV Century, is taken from Western Civilisation in its economic aspects (Mediaeval and Modern Times).

Download or read book Outlines of Studies in the History of the Middle Ages written by George Lincoln Burr and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-10 with total page 62 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Outlines of Studies, in the History of the Middle Ages: With Suggestions as to the Sources of Knowledge The general histories of the Renaissance, the Reformation, the Reaction (more often called the Counter - Reformation), together with the more useful of the special works dealing singly with the phases, characters, or events of these epochs, will find mention, and sometimes description, at the head of the several outlines. Only such books will be named, however, as are in the university library, and therefore accessible to the members of the class. Works of import ance may be omitted because lacking to the library but, on the other hand, only a small part of the library's actual wealth in the field of each topic can be enumerated on the outline. To this further literature, however, as to the original sources, the works named will prove an adequate key, and the university catalogue a door. Of the rich collection on the Reformation which forms a part of the President White Library a Special catalogue has been printed and one of our noble Dante collection, the gift of Professor Fiske, which includes many works dealing with the Whole history of the Renaissance, is now under way. These as well as the general slip catalogue of the library must therefore be consulted. Much too of value to our study may be found in the printed catalogue of the Miscellanea of the White Library.

Download or read book The History of the Middle Ages Classic Reprint written by Victor Duruy and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-02 with total page 654 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of the Middle Ages This translation is published in the confident belief that it will prove as valuable a book for school use and general reading among us as it has proved itself in France. Care has been taken to distinguish the editor's work from the author's, in both text and notes. Some few omissions have been made from the author's text without notice, chiefly for the purpose of simplifying the narrative, and corrections of dates and of manifest typographical errors have not been marked, but in every case where the author's meaning has been changed the fact is indicated by the use of brackets, and the editor's notes are signed, while theauthor's are left unsigned. In general, the intention has been to confine changes and notes to points of sufficient importance to justify notice, but in a book of this kind it is hardly possible that every statement in need of revision has been detected, and I am conscious to myself of unequal knowledge of the different subjects dealt with.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Supplemental Notes to the View of the State of Europe During the Middle Ages In the mean time, however, the long period of the Middle Ages had been investigated by many of my distinguished contemporaries with signal success, and I have been anxious to bring my own volumes nearer to the boundaries of the historic domain, as it has been enlarged within our own age. My object has been, accordingly, to reconsider those portions of the Work which relate to subjects discussed by eminent writers since its publication, to illustrate and enlarge some passages which had been imperfectly or ob' scurely treated, and to acknowledge with freedom my own errors. It appeared most convenient to adopt a form of publication by which the possessors of any edition may have the advantage of these Supplemental Notes, which will not much affect the value of their copy.

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.

Download or read book When Knights Were Bold Classic Reprint written by Eva March Tappan and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-13 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from When Knights Were Bold This book is in no degree an attempt to relate the involved and intricate history of the Middle Ages. Its plan is, rather, to pre sent pictures of the manner of life and habits of thought of the people who lived between the eighth and fifteenth centuries. Our writings and our everyday conversation are full of their phrases and of allusions to their ideas. Many of our thoughts and feelings and instincts, of our very follies and superstitions, have descended to us from them. To become better acquainted with them is to explain ourselves. In selecting from the enormous amount of material, I have sought to choose those customs which were most characteristic of the times and which have made the strongest impression upon the life of to-day, describing each custom when at its height, rather than tracing its development and history. I hope that the volume will be found sufficiently full to serve as a work of reference, and sufficiently interesting to win its way.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Historical Pictures of the Middle Ages, in Black and White, Vol. 1 of 2: Made on the Spot, From Records in the Archives of Switzerland A preface is usually so seldom read, and generally so little wanted, that the author of this work long hesitated as to the propriety of appending one. The reflection, however, that it was ushered into the world under the title of History, at length decided her to point out explicitly the abundant sources whence the materials were drawn, lest it might be supposed th at these pictures were, in reality, nothing more than a few leading facts laid down to form a superstructure for a fabric of fiction. All the prin cipal details of the Huns' War, more especially liable to suspicion from the dramatic character of its incidents, will be found in Wiirstisen's Great Ger man Chronicle of Basle, published scarcely one hun dred years afterwards, when the events narrated were yet in the memory of many aged persons, by whom they were transmitted to posterity, both orally and by writing A.
