Book Description
Excerpt from A History of the Roman Empire: From Its Foundation to the Death of Marcus Aurelius (27 B. C. 180 A. D.) The constitutional theory and history of the Principate have been investigated with such striking results in recent years by the elaborate researches of Mommsen and his school in Germany, that the author felt himself called upon to treat this side of imperial history as fully as the compass of a handbook seemed to admit. It is a subject which cannot be otherwise than ditlicult but in order to read the history of the Empire intelligently, it is indispen sable to master at the outset the constitutional principles, to which Chapters II. And III. Are devoted. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Description
Excerpt from A History of the Roman Empire From Its Foundation to the Death of Marcus Aurelius 27 IT is well known that for the period of Roman history, which is of all its periods perhaps the most important - the first two centuries of the Empire - there exists no English handbook suitable for use in Universities and Schools. The consequence of this want in our educational course is that the knowledge of Roman history possessed by students, who are otherwise men of considerable attainments in classical literature, comes to a sudden end at the Battle of Actium. At least, their systematic knowledge ends there of. The subsequent history they know only isolated facts gathered at haphazard from Horace, J uvenal and Tacitus. This much-felt need will, it is hoped, be met by the present volume, which bridges the gap between the Student's Rome and the Student's Gibbon.

This much-felt need will, it is hoped, be met by the present volume, which bridges the gap between the Student's Rome and the Student's Gibbon. This work has been written directly from the original sources. But it is almost unnecessary to say that the author is under deep obligations to many modern guides. He is indebted above all to Mommsen's Romisches Staats-rechl, and to the fifth volume of the same historian's Rornische Geschichle. He must also acknowledge the constant aid which he has derived from Merivale's History of the Romans under the Empire, Schiller's Geschichle der romischen Kaiserzeit, and Herzog's Geschichle und System der romischen Staatsverfasmng. Duruy's History of Rome has been occasionally useful. The lesser and more special books which have been consulted with advantage are too numerous to mention.
