Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Alexander's Empire The story of the conquests of Alexander has been told many times, and his name is familiar in our mouths as household words; but the history of the different portions of the great Empire that he founded, how they rapidly gained and lost their independence, and finally were absorbed into the dominions of Rome, is by no means equally well known. It was not to be expected that such a conqueror as the great Macedonian should leave behind him any single successor equal to the task of holding his vast Empire together, and it is therefore no matter of surprise that it was speedily broken up; but there is, nevertheless, a deep interest in tracing the progress of disintegration, in the course of which one ruler after another was obliged to resign his power, and the inner life of the world was completely transformed.

This book was released on 2017-11-24 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Progress of Hellenism in Alexander's Empire The following Lectures, delivered in the Univer sity of Chicago, represent the compendium of a long and brilliant development of human culture. To obtain a brief and yet accurate survey of it is certainly a desideratum to various classes of readers, and will, I trust, satisfy a real want. The general reader, who desires to learn something of the ex pansion of Greek ideas toward the East, will here find enough for a working knowledge of a very com plicated epoch. The specialist, who has devoted himself to some department of this field, will find here those general views of the whole which are necessary to every intelligent research into the parts. More especially, the student or teacher of Christi anity will find here the human side of its origin treated in a strictly historical spirit. To all such this little volume may be as welcome as were the lectures which compose it to the large and very sym pathetic class who heard them in the summer of 1904.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life and Actions of Alexander the Great The con uered and the conquerors were united by Cyrus to 's new empire, and 'became Persian sub: jects under Cambyses and Darius. The Ionians revolted from the latter, but were subdued after an unavailing struggle. At the Commencement of the revolt, the Athenians sent a fleet to aid their colo nists. The combined Athenian and Ionian forces marched to Sardes, and burned the Lydian capital. This rash act drew on Athens and 'on Greece the whole vengeance of the Persian monarchs. After a long and deadly contest, the Greeks lled the invaders, pursued them into Asia, and or a liberated their Asiatic fellow-countrymen. But their own civil 'contests diverted their attention from foreign objects, and their splendid victories had no farther result.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Histories of Cyrus the Great and Alexander the Great For any comprehensive knowledge of history some acquaintance with the lives of Cyrus and Alexander is essential; since the conquest of Cyrus has been well characterized as the starting-point of European life, and the conquest of Alexander prepared the way for that spread of Grecian literature and philosophy which were themselves preparations for the spread of Christianity. Moreover, as individuals, Cyrus stands out clearly as the representative of the East, Alexander of the West. In preparing this edition of my father's volumes, at the request of Dr. Vincent, regard has been had to making a cheap edition for popular use: it is, therefore, printed from the original plates; such errors as were discoverable in them have been corrected, but these were very few in number.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Greek Life and Thought: From the Age of Alexander to the Roman Conquest In'the second place, as this book was not in tended exclusively for scholars, it became necessary to introduce some account of the history and litera ture of the age as the background for the estimate of life and manners, which is my main Object. I might possibly have assumed a knowledge of this history and literature in the scholar, though, even for scholars, the epoch is one of great complication and obscurity, lying outside the bounds of ordinary classical reading; but, from the general reader, this special knowledge could not possibly be expected. Hence there is more actual history in the present volume than in its predecessor, and its limits are marked, not by great authors, but by great political events.
