Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Source Book of Roman History Easily accessible translations have been used wherever it was possible. In the appendix I have indicated after the name of each author the translation used. Here no name is given, the extracts were translated either by Mr. R. F. Scholz or by myself. In using the translations I have made a few slight changes in wording and punctuation. I have usually retained any important notes given in the translations. The illustrations are intended merely to suggest that pictures form a very important class of sources. In the appendix brief statements are given as to the provenance and description of these pictures. Most of our text-books are well illustrated, and their pictures should be utilized as far as possible for class room exercises. No fancy-pictures should be so used; only representations of actual remains, of statuary, or of Roman drawings. The students should describe what the picture represents and its historic importance.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Story of Rome as Greeks and Romans Tell It: An Elementary Source-Book The object of this volume is to supply pupils in Roman history with interesting and instructive reading from the sources. This purpose has determined not only the selec tion of the material, but also the method of presentation. Although the book contains some descriptions of institu tions, it is largely narrative and biographical; preference has been given to those passages which illustrate life and character, ori which help the reader to an appreciation of general literature. To make the subject-matter intelligible as well as attractive to young readers, the quotations have been so connected and interwoven as to form a continuous story, and the difficulties have been explained in notes and references. These features will doubtless commend the book to many who, having passed the age of the pupil, are still interested in the literature and the life of ancient Rome. As a basis for the text, English translations, so far as they are available, have been used with the consent of the publishers. These translations, however, have been freely altered, with a view chieﬂy to the simplification of the style; at the same time care has been taken to reproduce faithfully the meaning of the authors represented.

C. 133-70 We have divided the events of each year into those of its internal and external history. The sections which deal with domestic events will probably be found to be more complete, and therefore more valuable, than those which deal with foreign issues. The sacrifice of the details of domestic policy to personal anecdote and military history is a characteristic of most of the authors on whom we have had to rely. In particular, the legislation of any portion of this period has usually to be pieced together from a number of scattered fragments. We have, therefore, tried to make the portion of our work which deals with internal history, as complete as possible, while we were unable to present the details of campaigns and battles without making the book exceed the limits which we thought necessary to its utility. References, however, have always been given to passages which could not be cited in full. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Revised to include new selections and updated bibliographical material, the second edition of this popular sourcebook offers a rich, revealing look at everyday Roman life. It provides clear, lively translations of a fascinating array of documents drawn from Latin and Greek source material--from personal letters, farming manuals, medical texts, and recipes to poetry, graffiti, and tombstone inscriptions. Each selection has been translated into readable, contemporary English. This edition includes more than 50 additional selections that introduce new topics and expand coverage of existing topics. In addition, the commentary on all the selections has been revised to reflect the recent scholarship of social and cultural historians. Extensive annotations, abundant biographical notes, maps, appendices, cross-references to related topics, and a newly-updated bibliography provide readers with the historical and cultural background material necessary to appreciate the selections. Arranged thematically into chapters on family life, housing, education, entertainment, religion, and other important topics, the translations reveal the ambitions and aspirations not only of the upper class, but of the average Roman citizen as well. They tell of the success and failure of Rome's grandiose imperialist policies and also of the pleasures and hardships of everyday life. Wide-ranging and lively, the second edition of As the Romans Did offers the most lucid account available of Roman life in all its diversity. Ideal for courses in Ancient Roman History, Social History of Rome, Roman Civilization, and Classics, it will also appeal to readers interested in ancient history.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Reference Handbook of Roman History: From the Earliest Times to the Death of Commodus, 753 B. C. 192 A. D.; By the Library Method, for Schools and Colleges The accompanying work is the outcome of several years of experience and experiment in the teaching of History. The frequent complaint, I don't like History, led to discard ing the old method of assigning a uniform lesson from a single text-book, with its brief outline of important events. Mommsen's four-volume History of Rome, Philip Smith's three-volume History of the World, and two or three brief school text-books by different authors, were placed upon the teacher's desk. Several topics were written on the blackboard, and the class told to look them up in any of the aforesaid books. The inability of the young pupil to use a library became at once appar ent. He could not find his way among the multitude of minor details and side issues in the more elaborate works. Thus, learning to use books became a practical part of the advantage in this method. To avoid unnecessary discouragement attendant on this experience, the teacher added to the topics the volume, and later, the pages, on which the essentials of the subject were to be found. The topics are arranged, so far as possible, in a chronological order; but when unity of subject has occasionally demanded it, chronology has. Been sacrificed to logic.

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.
