Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of Greece From the Earliest Times to the Present, Vol. 1 of 2 There remains for me the pleasant duty of tendering my warmest thanks to my friend and associate in the New York School of Languages, Professor Henry C. Miller, to whom I am indebted for many valuable suggestions and criticisms. The difficulties which beset the historian in treating a subject so vast as the fortunes of the Hellenic nation, coupled with the obstacles which a foreigner, however much he may admire the beauty and manliness of English expres sion, must unavoidably meet in conveying his thoughts in a language not his own, may to a certain extent explain the reasons on account of which the author, after years of earnest labor, has fallen short of the lofty ideal he has aimed at the graphic representation of Hellenism from its earliest stage to the present.

This book was released on 2015-06-16 with total page 478 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of Greece From the Earliest Times to the Present, Vol. 1 of 2 My purpose in this work, undertaken at the request of my esteemed friend Dr. J. H. Vincent, has been to write a history of Greece based as far as possible on the testimony of authorities contemporary with the events narrated. While I cheerfully acknowledge my obligations to Gibbon and Grote - the most eminent of modern historians - a careful study of the Greek writers has led me to differ from them on many important matters. The peculiar feature of the present work, therefore, is that it is founded on Hellenic sources. I have not hesitated to follow the Father of History in portraying the heroism and the sacrifices of the Hellenes in their first war for independence, nor, in delineating the character of that epoch, to form my judgment largely from the records he has left us. Nor have I scrupled, in narrating the great civil strife of the nation, to base my assumptions and conclusions on the testimony of the inimitable historian of the Peloponnesian war. If I have misinterpreted the facts or failed to draw legitimate conclusions, it is because I must have misconstrued the meaning sought to be conveyed by my illustrious ancestors.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Greece, From the Earliest Times to the End of the Persian War, Vol. 1 Considerations of this kind, which must assert themselves at every stage of all historical work, and with pretty nearly equal force, I have finally decided to disregard. Sufficient care is taken that enquiry and criticism shall proceed from one conclusion to another without cessation of their labour: yet. For the basis of science, each of the two factors is equally indispensable if we need to sift the materials in order to establish the facts, we need also to under stand and think of them in combination. It is the interaction of these two factors which discloses the hidden secret; for not only does the whole exist in and through the parts, but from the whole the parts receive their life and light.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of Greece, Vol. 2 of 2: From the Earliest Times to the Present Thus may be explained to some extent the sudden promi nence of the city of Thebes. The life and government of the Athenians recall to our mind the countries which Nature has made fertile by many and great rivers. The life and constitution of Sparta recall the lands in which art and indus try, by an economical use of the few streams running through them, and by the construction of various canals, have suc ceeded in making fertile even the most arid plains. But the life and constitution of the Thebans were for a long time almost unproductive; until, from a powerful sentiment of liberty and ambition stirring the lowest and apparently in sensible depths, there suddenly burst forth a living spring which changed the desert into a garden.

This book was released on 2016-06-25 with total page 454 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of Greece From the Earliest Times to the Roman Conquest It has been thought advisable frequently to omit details and events of minor importance altogether, in order that room might be given for bringing forward more prominently those which have exercised an in uence upon the world at large, and have taught grave political lessons to all generations. Some few of the political and social phases which the Hellenic communities went through, the author has ventured to illustrate by a reference to events of more modern times, and ideas familiar to modern readers. A few biographical anecdotes have been here and there interspersed in order to render the drier details of history more interesting to the young, for whose use more especially this little work is intended, but a selection has been made of those which are the best authenticated. The literary history necessarily occupies but a brief portion of the volume, but sufficient, it is hoped, to make the reader in some degree acquainted with the progress and development of Greek intellect, and to induce him to pursue the subject further in larger works. The View of Greek philosophy is of course still Shorter and more incomplete, but a longer notice would have involved the necessity of entering upon difficulties too great for such a work as this, and it is hoped that enough has been said on this subject to Show how the wisest of men had to feel after God.

There are no castes. The nobles are those who are the strongest and most active, the bravest, the most eloquent. It is because they possess these qualities that they are regarded as sons of the gods and receive respect and obedience. But any man may claim this origin if he can prove it by his valor. Between the people and the nobles there is no insurmountable barrier; no man may live slothfully upon any ancestral fame.
