Présentation de l'éditeur
The object of this volume is to supply pupils in Roman history with interesting and instructive reading from the sources. This purpose has determined not only the selection of the material, but also the method of presentation. Although the book contains some descriptions of institutions, it is largely narrative and biographical; preference has been given to those passages which illustrate life and character, or which help the reader to an appreciation of jneral literature. To make the subject-matter intelligible well as attractive to young readers, the quotations have on so connected and interwoven as to form a continuous ory, and the difficulties have been explained in notes and ferences. These features will doubtless commend the book to many who, having passed the age of the pupil, are still interested in the literature and the life of ancient Rome. As a basis for the text, English translations, so far as they are available, have been used with the consent of the publishers. These translations, however, have been freely altered, with a view chiefly to the simplification of the style; at the same time care has been taken to reproduce faithfully the meaning of the authors represented.
(Typographical errors above are due to OCR software and don't occur in the book.)
