Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Anglo-Saxon Britain This little book is an attempt to give a brief sketch of Britain under the early English conquerors, rather from the social than from the political point of View. For that purpose not much has been said about the doings of kings and statesmen; but attention has been mainly directed towards the less obvious evi dence afforded us by existing monuments as to the life and mode of thought of the people themselves. The principal object throughout has been to estimate the importance of those elements in modern British life which are chieﬂy due to purely English or Low Dutch inﬂuences.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of England Under the Anglo-Saxon Kings, Vol. 1 of 2 An epoch of great convulsions would scarcely seem to be consistent with the developement of the higher forms of life. Perhaps my estimate of the Middle Ages, which is rather more favourable than that commonly taken, has been coloured by the same tendency to believe in growth rather than in sudden and violent revolutions. It is difficult to study a literature and laws that are as English as our own in spirit and purpose without feeling that we have inherited good as well as evil from the past.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Arts in Early England From the first the series of volumes of which this is one has been addressed as much to the general public as to those whose interests are scholarly, and to a public moreover wider than that constituted by the incident of British birth, for to our kinsfolk from the Dominions and to independent offshoots from the common Anglo - Saxon stock there is a perennial attractiveness in the English country villages where, or near which, the subject matter of these volumes for the most part exists or has come to light. There is indeed no possession of the British race endowed with a charm more intimate, more essentially our own, than the English country village, and there are numberless rural hamlets where nature and man have worked in concert to fill the place with a mellowed beauty, that, after all, win their chief claim to praise from the perfect setting they provide for the country church.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of the Anglo-Saxons: From the Earliest Period to the Norman Conquest In the present attempt at a popular History of the Anglo-Saxons, I have endeavoured to avoid the dry, hard, matter-of-fact style of previous historians - to describe its important truths in a more picturesque and familiar manner - to bring out the actors and scenery more boldly before the eye of the reader - to throw more of a poetical spirit into the - narrative and to give it all the fascination of fiction, without altering a single recorded fact. Such a task scarcely presents an obstacle; history itself furnishes the romance-writer with the most dramatic incidents of his work, and they only require to be cast in a somewhat imaginative mould to make them more interesting than fiction. The hard, naked outline is not all that is necessary to represent truth; and it is this very want of a finer finish and a richer style of colouring that has driven so many readers to the Romance School of history, in which they have found only distorted facts and historical caricatures instead of truth. There are many who argue that the paths which lead to knowledge must of necessity be difficult and rugged. I believe that it is in the power of any author to make them much pleasanter than they are; and that to accomplish this he has only to amuse as well as to instruct, even as an agreeable companion will, by cheerful conversation, seem to shorten and lighten the way, however long and wearisome it may be in itself. Such a companion I have endeavoured to make this volume, and to bring the very scenery before the "mind's eye" of the reader, whether the events transpired on sea or land, in castle or cathedral, whenever such word-painting adds to the beauty, richness, and interest of our historical descriptions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Historical View of the English Government: From the Settlement of the Saxons in Britain to the Accession, of the House of Stewart The great series of events in the history of England may be divided into three parts: the first, extending from the settlement of the Saxons in Britain to the Norman conquest; the second, from the reign of William the Conqueror to the accession of the house of Stewart; the third, from the reign of James the First to the present time. The important changes exhibited in the state of the country, and in the situation of its inhabitants, appear, like a fort of natural boundaries, to mark out these different periods, and to recommend them as objects of distinct and separate examination. The first period contains the conquest of England by the northern barbarians, the division of the country under the different chiefs by whom that people were conducted, the subsequent union of those principalities under one sovereign, and the course of public transactions under the Saxon and Danish monarchs. The reign of William the Conqueror, while it put an end to the ancient line of kings, introduced into England a multitude of foreigners, who obtained extensive landed possessions, and spread with great rapidity the manners and customs of a nation more civilized and improved than the English. The inhabitants were thus excited to a quicker advancement in the common arts of life, at the fame time that the nation, by acquiring continental connections, was involved in more extensive military operations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Daily Life in Anglo-Saxon England examines and recreates many of the details of ordinary lives in early medieval England between the 5th and 11th centuries, exploring what we know as well as the surprising gaps in our knowledge. Daily Life in Anglo-Saxon England covers daily life in England from the 5th through the 11th centuries. These six centuries saw significant social, cultural, religious, and ethnic upheavals, including the introduction of Christianity, the creation of towns, the Viking invasions, the invention of "Englishness," and the Norman Conquest. In the last 10 years, there have been significant new archaeological discoveries, major advances in scientific archaeology, and new ways of thinking about the past, meaning it is now possible to say much more about everyday life during this time period than ever before. Drawing on a combination of archaeological and textual evidence, including the latest scientific findings from DNA and stable isotope analysis, this book looks at the life course of the early medieval English from the cradle to the grave, as well as how daily lives changed over these centuries. Topics covered include maintenance activities, education, play, commerce, trade, manufacturing, fashion, travel, migration, warfare, health, and medicine.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Handbook of the History of the English Language for the Use of Teacher and Student Since the first appearance of this work the field of English philology has been sedulously cultivated by many able writers both at home and abroad. It may be sufficient here to mention Koch's 'Historische Grammatik, ' 1869; Matzner's 'Englische Grammatik, ' 1865;Marsh's 'English Language, ' 1862;Helfenstein's 'Comparative Grammar of the Teutonic Languages, ' 1870; Dr. Abbott's 'Shakspearian Grammar, ' 1870; Dr. Morris's 'Historical Outlines, ' 1873;A. J.Ellis's great work on 'Early English Pronunciation, ' 1868-75; and the important Transactions of the Chaucer and Early English d104 Societies. These and several other recent works have been consulted in the preparation of the present edition, which thus embodies much fresh matter in further illustration of the successive steps by which the English tongue has arrived at its present state. Some may possibly affect surprise that no change has been made in the nomenclature, and that the terms Saxon and Anglo-Saxon are still retained.

Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1869 edition. Excerpt: ... the frisians the fatheestock of the saxonenglish people. In the reading of what some of the Latin writers have told us of the tribes of North Western Germany, it is not always easy to understand which of them were Teutonic, or which were Celtic. The word Germania does not help our wavering thought, for we have no good grounds for believing that the Teutonic tribes ever called themselves Germani, or that Germania is a Teutonic word. The people whom we, with some of the Roman writers, call Germans, have always called themselves by a name of such clippings as T T, T D, or D T, as Teutons, Deutsch, Duitsch, from which even the Italians have taken the name of Tudesco, instead of Germanus, while the French call the Germans Allemands. Now German and All-man are Celtic words, German meaning neighbour or inlander. and Allman foreigner or outlander; and even now yr Allman, in Welsh, would mean either a stranger in general, or a German as such. It seems likely, therefore, that the Gauls called some tribes near them, or, it may be, on their own side of the Rhine, German, or neighbour tribes, and others farther off, as on the other side of the Rhine, Allman, or strange or foreign tribes: as the French still call the Deutsch. Tacitus says that the name Germania was of late use, and that the Teutons who first came over the Rhine, and outdrove the Gauls, were at one time called Tungri, and at another Germani, and we can understand clearly enough that they might have been called Tungri, as they were in their former land, and Germani, as neighbour or inland tribes, to the Gauls. Tacitus hints that the over-Rhiners were at last called by the Gauls Germani, as of the same race as the Tungrian Germans, or, in a looser way, as being of the neighbour land....
