BY DR. MOMMSEN

THE HISTORY OF ROME

FROM THE EARLIEST TIMES

TO THE PERIOD OF ITS DECLINE

BY

PROFESSOR THEODOR MOMMSEN

TRANSLATED BY

WILLIAM PURDIE DICKSON, D.D., LL.D.

A Newer and Cheaper Edition, Revised, and embodying all the most recent alterations and additions made by Dr. MOMMSEN.

In Five vols. Crown 8vo. 7s. 6d. each.

_Abridged Edition_ for the use of Schools and Colleges. By C. BRYANS and F. J. R. HENDY. One vol. Crown 8vo. 7s. 6d.

_TIMES._--“A work of the very highest merit; its learning is exact and profound; its narrative full of genius and skill; its descriptions of men are admirably vivid. We wish to place on record our opinion that Dr. Mommsen’s is by far the best history of the decline and fall of the Roman Commonwealth.”

_PALL MALL GAZETTE._--“Dr. Mommsen is the latest scholar who has acquired European distinction by writing on Roman History. But he is much more than a scholar. He is a man of genius, of great original force, and daring to the extreme in his use of it; a philosopher in his power of dealing with facts; a painter in his power of reproducing men; witty, with a dash of poetic fancy; and humorous after a dry, sarcastic fashion, which, combined with his erudition, recalls Scott’s Oldbucks and Bradwardines. His elaborate portrait of Caesar is, we venture to say, one of the best pieces of biographical delineation that this century has produced. Dr. Mommsen’s style of character-drawing is his own. He neither reveals a face by lightning flashes, like Mr. Carlyle, nor sets it in a framework of epigrammatic oil lamps, like Mr. Lamartine, nor dashes it off with bold crayon-strokes, like Lord Macaulay. But his keen and rather naturally satirical genius softens in the presence of what he admires. He analyses skilfully, describes with fine pencil-lines, and colours with a touch that is not too warm, and yet quite warm enough to give the hues of life.”
