Book excerpt: Books VI-X of Livy's monumental work trace Rome's fortunes from its near collapse after defeat by the Gauls in 386 bc to its emergence, in a matter of decades, as the premier power in Italy, having conquered the city-state of Samnium in 293 bc. In this fascinating history, events are described not simply in terms of partisan politics, but through colourful portraits that bring the strengths, weaknesses and motives of leading figures such as the noble statesman Camillus and the corrupt Manlius vividly to life. While Rome's greatest chronicler intended his history to be a memorial to former glory, he also had more didactic aims - hoping that readers of his account could learn from the past ills and virtues of the city.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of Rome Roman history is the history of a state, rather than of a people or a country. It advances somewhat in the manner of a widening series of concentric circles; first a single city among a group of kindred communities in the Latin plain bounded by the Tiber, the Sabine and Volscian hills, and the Tuscan sea; then a united Latin power, with the city of Rome as its head then a power embracing the whole of Italy, and extending its control over the Mediterranean coast-lands; and, finally, a world-empire, including within its citizenship a great variety of races, united in a common allegiance to the Roman Emperor, and enjoying a common civilisation. In the achievement of this result, which was fully attained by the middle of the third century after Christ, the native Romans took other peoples into partnership with them - their near kindred of the Latin stock first of all; then the other races of Italy, Umbrians, Samnites, Etruscans, and Greeks; and then, by a continuous process of enfranchisement, the inhabitants Of their conquered territories beyond Italy, in Spain, Gaul, the Danubian lands, Greece and the Graecised eastern countries, and northern Africa. All these peoples, in the end, called themselves Romans, and shared in the benefits and the burdens of the Roman civilisa tion: thus about the middle of the first century AD we find S. Paul, by descent a Jew, by nativity a Cilician of Tarsus, claiming the liberties and privileges of a Roman citizen as his birthright. Many of the greatest names in the latter parts of the history are those of men who were not Roman by birth.

But the writer has also selected them with a view to illustrate the two senti ments most characteristic of Roman manners - duty to parents and duty to country. She has, moreover, tried to indicate that the latter of these sentiments took precedence of the former. A healthy moral lesson is thus conveyed, while at the same time the most essential feature of the Roman civilization is impressed on the memory.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Story of the Roman People an Elementary History of Rome There is little that is of more practical value to the young folk of to-day than the history of Rome. How a village king dom became a mighty republic, how the republic became a world-embracing empire, how that empire, the dread and pride of its millions of subjects, fell so low as to become the sport Of its own soldiers all this is, indeed, a tale of mar vel. But the history of Rome is more than a mere story. Many of the difficulties and many of the advantages Of the Roman Republic are akin to those of the American Repub lic. The solution of such problems as have already presented themselves in the United States is even now demanding the highest Wisdom Of the land. Other problems will arise in the near future. Roman history is a mighty object lesson, of value. To every citizen of our Republic, of especial value to the children into Whose hands the government will so speed ily pass. What is learned in years of maturity is an addi tion to one's mental equipment; what is learned in child hood becomes a part of the mind itself. That those Who read this book may find it of interest to-day, of service to morrow, is the Wish Of the author. Eva march tappan. March 1, 1910.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of Rome, Vol. 4 When Sulla died in the year 676, the oligarchy which he had restored ruled with absolute sway over the Roman state; but, as it had been established by force, it still needed force to maintain its ground against its numerous secret and open foes. It was opposed not by any single party with objects clearly expressed and under leaders distinctly acknowledged, but by a mass of multifarious elements, ranging themselves doubtless under the general name of the popular party, but in reality opposing the Sulla organization of the commonwealth on very various grounds and with very different designs. There were the men of positive law, who neither mingled in nor understood politics, but who detested the arbitrary procedure of Sulla in dealing with the lives and property of the burgesses. Even during the regent's lifetime, when all other opposition was silent, the strict jurists were refractory; the Cornelian laws, for example, which deprived various Italian communities of the Roman franchise, were treated in judicial decisions as null and void; and in like manner the courts held that, where a burgess had been made a prisoner of war and sold into slavery during the revolution, his franchise was not forfeited. There was, further, the remnant of the old liberal minority in the senate, which in former times had sought a compromise with the reform party and the Italians, and was now in a similar spirit inclined to modify the rigidly oligarchic constitution of Sulla by concessions to the Populares.

The city of Rome grew up gradually on seven hills lym by the Tiber, about fourteen miles from its mouth. It was a favourite delusion among the Romans that they were descended from the gods; and their poets and historians dwelt lovingly on the story of Eneas the Trojan, a son of Venus, who left the ashes of his native city, and wandered long, until he found a refuge in Latium, where his son Ascanius built on the ridge of a hill a long white city (alba Longa). There his descendants reigned through many generations. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of Rome, Vol. 5 I have not been able or willing to assume the attitude of perfect indifference as to the Spirit and character of individual and national morality. I have not aimed at painting in those neutral tints which, if they do not give the wrong colours, cannot give the right colours either. But I have tried to aspire to that which is the highest and the most difficult virtue of an historian, impartiality - an impartiality which does not shrink from pronouncing judgment, but which guides the judge, even in passing sentence, to a just discrimination between right and wrong. Yet I have been charged with a bias unfavourable to Rome. Surely it would be strange for a man to devote, years of patient study and severe labour to a subject, if he were not inspired with a certain degree of enthusiasm for it. The general tendency of writers has been to exalt. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
