Synopsis

The Grandeur That Was Rome: Second Florilegium is a collection of primary sources in translation keyed to William C. Morey’s Outlines of Roman History. By uniting into anthologies of a single theme the most beautiful, instructive, and historically significant excerpts of the Great Books, and by keying them to a concise and orderly outline, the Florilegium Method unites the benefits of the lecture and tutorial methods. The college-bound student is thus formed in our western intellectual, moral, and literary culture, while simultaneously mastering its principal characters, events, dates, and ideas. Immoral material is eliminated, as is the need to wade through vast works that are often obscure and tedious. Textbooks serve adequately the needs of children, whereas Great Books are proportioned to the educated adult. The Florilegium Method takes the middle road by preparing students with necessary factual learning, while opening up to them the insight and grandeur of the classic works in history, literature and philosophy.
