A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur :

It is difficult to tell the story of Carthage, because one has to tell it without sympathy, and from the standpoint of her enemies. It is a great advantage, on the other handthat the materials are of a manageable amount, and that a fairly complete narrative may be given within a moderate compass. I have made it a rule, to go to the original authorities. At the same time I nave to express my obligations to several modern works, to the geographical treatises of Heeren, the histories of Grote, Arnold and Mommsen, Mr. Bosworth Smith sadmirable Car- thage and the Carthaginians, and the learned and exhaustive History of Art in Phoenicia and its Dependencies, by Messieurs Georges Perrot and Charles Chipiez, as translated and edited by Mr. Walter A rmstrong. To this last I am indebted for most of the illustrations of this book. I have had much help also from Mr. W. W. Capes edition of Livy xxi., xxii.
