Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of Rome, Vol. 1 of 2: From the Foundation of the City of Rome, to the Destruction of the Western Empire There are some subjects on which a writer must decline all attempts to acquire fame, satis fied with being obscurely useful. After such a number of Roman Histories, in all languages, ancient and modern, it would be but imposture to pretend new discoveries, or to expect to offer any thing in a work of this kind, which has not been often anticipated by others. The facts which it relates have'been a hundred times repeated, and every occurrence has been so variously considered, that learning can scarce find a new anecdote, or genius give novelty to the old.

F ortun ately one of these is excellent, and its slight defects are so well supplemented by the other, that it is possible to give a text which is practically complete, and of which the correctness can seldom be called in question.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of Rome, Vol. 1: Books I.-XX IN this new English version of the most elegant of the Roman historians the object of the translatorhas been to adhere as closely to the original text as is consistent with the idioms of the respective languages. But while thus providing more especially for the wants of the classical student, he has not been unmindful of the neatness and perspicuity required to satisfy the English reader. There have been several previous translations of our author, but the only one now before the public, or deserv ing of particular mention, is that by Baker, which is un doubtedly a very able performance, and, had it been more faithful, would have rendered any other unnecessary. The edition used for the present translation is that pub lished at Oxford under the superintendence of Travers Twiss, Whose carefully-revised text is by far the 'best ex tant. The few notes and illustrations which the limits of an edition in this popular form permit are chie y confined to the explanation of grammatical difficulties. Historical and antiquarian illustration is now so abundantly supplied by excellent Manuals and Dictionaries, that it has been deemed unnecessary to swell the present volumes by ad ditions in that department.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Rome, Vol. 1 of 2 So much has been written of Rome that it would seem presumptuous to add another book to the literature upon this subject unless there were in it a distinct purpose not found in other volumes. But though scholars have written exhaustively and poets and litterateurs have written charmingly about the seven-hilled city, the tourist will perhaps find use for a book which is not so technical as the former class, and yet more systematic than the latter, - a volume which will tell him of the really important things to be seen in Rome within the limits of a brief visit, - a something not as barren as a guide-book nor as discursive as an essay, but helpful in showing what is most worthy of appreciation in the monuments, the churches, and the galleries of the most interesting city in the world.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Child's History of Rome, Vol. 1 of 2 It was a very famous place, the Forum; and I have said this much about it in order that you may have some picture of it in your eye when you hear it mentioned in this history. There were many temples at Rome, but as they long ago crumbled into dust, we know little or no thing about them. There was an aqueduct, called the Appian Aqueduct after its builder, an old Ro man named Aprwe claudius, about whom there were many famous stories. This aqueduct brought water to the city from a source eight miles off. And there was a great drain, which, I think, was the most wonderful work of ancient Rome. People said it had been built by an old king of Rome, whose name was servius tullius, two hundred years ago and more: any how, it was very old, and so wide that a cart and horse could drive through it, and so strong that it does its duty still, and not a stone of it has mouldered away. I wonder how our drains will look two thousand years hence! About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Rome, Vol. 1: For the Use of Schools IN the volume now offered to the public, it is the intention of the author to connect the most important events of Roman history, from the foundation of Rome to the death of Constantine. That these events may be more easily fixed upon the memory, it is thought advisable to separate the narrative into three parts. Part I. Is confined to that period known as the monarchy, which, although very properly regarded as wholly fabulous, is the only foundation that can be obtained for a history upon whose pages almost all the nations of the earth appear.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Livy's History of Rome, Vol. 1 Livy is not to be regarded as an historian in the strict sense of the word, as a critical investigator of facts and authorities, and a careful inquirer into the value of the evidence before him 3 in fact, Macaulay goes so far as to say that nohistorian with whom we are acquainted has shown so complete an indifference to truth. Livy's idea of his duty and aim as the historian of the Roman people proceeded from an entirely different standpoint. He wrote as a Roman for Romans: he was absorbed in the contem plation of the greatness of a single city, and that city was Rome: and his main object was to glorify its greatness, following in this the example of the earlier annalists, who began to write at the time of the Punic Wars, and the great struggle with Carthage. This could not fail sometimes to lead him to give an exaggerated estimate of the achieve ments of Rome, and to neglect events of importance occur ring elsewhere, simply because they had no direct bearing on Roman history.
