Stories From the History of Rome (Classic Reprint) by Mrs. Beesly Pdf

Excerpt from Stories From the History of Rome The writer of this little book was not satisfied that her children should hear nothing but fairy tales and the stories of nursery life, now so popular. But she could find nothing else fit to read to them. There are, indeed, plenty of story-books drawing their materials from history, and professing to be intended for children. But they are not suited to very young children. They abound in words and ideas which a child of four or six years old not only does not understand, but cannot be made to understand. The writer, however, believed that it was quite possible to put portions of Livy and Plutarch into language which should need little or no explanation even to children of that age. She accordingly made the experiment. One story after another was written and read to her little boys. Whenever she discovered that a word or idea was unintelligible to them, she took pains to simplify it. She found that they thoroughly enjoyed these old tales from Roman history, and liked to hear them repeated again and again.

The History of Rome (Classic Reprint) by Titus Livius Pdf

"Livy (Titus Livius), the great Roman historian, was born at Patavium (Padua) in 64 or 59 BC, where after years in Rome he died in AD 12 or 17. Livy's history, composed as the imperial autocracy of Augustus was replacing the republican system that had stood for over 500 years, presents in splendid style a vivid narrative of Rome's rise from the traditional foundation of the city in 753 or 751 BC to 9 BC and illustrates the collective and individual virtues necessary to achieve and maintain such greatness. Of its 142 books, conventionally divided into pentads and decads, we have 1-10 and 21-45 complete, and short summaries (periochae) of all the rest except 41 and 43-45; 11-20 are lost, and of the rest only fragments and the summaries remain. The fourth decade comprises two recognizable pentads: Books 31-35 narrate the Second Macedonian War (200-196) and its aftermath, then Books 36-40 the years from 191 to 180, when Rome crushed and shrank Antiochus' empire to extend and consolidate her mastery over the Hellenistic states. This edition replaces the original Loeb edition by Evan T. Sage."--Publisher's description.

The Study of Roman History (Classic Reprint) by Bernard W. Henderson Pdf

Excerpt from The Study of Roman History The aim of this little book is different. As a tutor in Roman History, I have at times been accused by worried pupils of delighting over much in the heuristic method. This simply means that I like asking them questions and dislike impart ing information in tabloid shape. This is really the main object of this book also - to ask questions, to suggest to any student who may read it subjects for his own consideration and research. It has certainly not been my primary object to tell once more the often-repeated tale of Rome's history. To be in charge of a working-party in a trench has some advantages as well as responsibilities. To direct, to encourage, at times to take a hand this is similarly my desire in this book. Above all, it is meant to provoke enquiry, if not dissent, by the workers (a proceeding viewed with less favour in a trench). I hope that its main feature may turn out to be as it were a menu to the banquet. If taken as the banquet itself it will be Barmecide fare.

The Story of the Roman People an Elementary History of Rome (Classic Reprint) by Eva March Tappan Pdf

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.
