  • Italy and Her Invaders

    Volume IV - Imperial Restoration

    par Thomas Hodgkin ...
    It was a ‘truceless war’ which Justinian’s ambassador had denounced against the cringing Theodahad when he heard of the murder of Amalasuntha. And in truth all the schemings and machinations of the Byzantine Court had been rewarded beyond their deservings by as fair and honorable an excuse for war as ever prince could allege. Lilybaeum and Gratiana, Sicilian forts and Hunnish deserters, had all ... En savoir plus

    Volume I - The Visigothic Invasions

    par Thomas Hodgkin ...
    The object of this history is to trace some of the changes by which classical Italy, the kernel of the Roman Empire, the center of government and law for the Western world, became that Italy of the Middle Ages, whose life was as rich in intellectual and artistic culture as it was poor in national cohesion and enduring political strength.To some other historian will belong the delight of telling ...

    Volume V - The Lombard Invasion

    par Thomas Hodgkin ...
    THE four invading nations whose history has been already related left no enduring memorial of their presence in Italy. The Visigoth, the Hun, the Vandal, the Ostrogoth failed to connect their names with even a single province or a single city of the Imperial land. What these mighty nations had failed to effect, an obscure and savage horde from Pannonia successfully accomplished. Coming last of all ... En savoir plus

    Volume VI - The Lombard Kingdom

    par Thomas Hodgkin ...
    The century whose early years witnessed the death of Pope Gregory the Great, and the establishment of something like peaceful relations between the Empire and the Lombards in Italy, was one of a strangely mingled character. As far as Western Europe was concerned (perhaps we might say as far as the Aryan races were concerned) it was, on the whole, monotonous, uneventful, unimportant; but the ... En savoir plus

    Volume VIII - The Frankish Empire

    par Thomas Hodgkin ...
    Pope Hadrian occupied the chair of St. Peter for twenty-three years, ten months, and seventeen days, a longer period than had fallen to the lot of any of his predecessors, except the twenty-five years which tradition assigns to St. Peter himself. That part of his pontificate which still lies before us was, as far as Italy was concerned, a long and level space, not marked by any such striking ... En savoir plus

    Volume II - The Hunnish Invasion

    par Thomas Hodgkin ...
    THERE is a race on Scythia’s verge extremeEastward, beyond the Tanais’ chilly stream.The Northern Bear looks on no uglier crew :Base is their garb, their bodies foul to view;Their souls are Ne'er subdued to sturdy toilOr Ceres’ arts : their sustenance is spoil.With horrid wounds they gash their brutal brows,And o'er their murdered parents bind their vows.Not e'en the Centaur-offspring of the ...

    Volume III - The Ostrogothic Invasion

    par Thomas Hodgkin ...
    I have now to record the establishment of a Teutonic kingdom in Italy, which, more than any other of the new states arising on the ruins of the Roman Empire, promised to promote the happiness of the human race, which seemed likely to draw forth all that was noblest in the manhood of the barbarian, all that was most refined in the culture of the Italian, and to weld them both into one harmonious ...

    Volume VII - The Frankish Invasions

    par Thomas Hodgkin ...
    We have reached a decisive point in the history of Italy and its relations to the rest of Europe. The Visigoth dealt a mortal blow to the Roman State: the Hun and the Vandal mocked its dying agonies; the Ostrogoth tried, but tried in vain, to resuscitate its life, breathing his Teutonic energy into its outworn frame; then the Lombard came, at first a ruthless barbarian, pillaging and destroying, ...

  • The Life of Charles the Great

    par Thomas Hodgkin ...
    In the gradual transformation of the old world of classical antiquity into the world with which the statesmen of today must deal, no man played a greater part than Charles the Great, King of the Franks and Emperor of Rome. The sharp lines of demarcation which we often draw between period and period, and which are useful as helps to memory, have not for the most part had any real existence in ... En savoir plus

  • The Letters of Cassiodorus

    par Thomas Hodgkin ...
    Learned men, who had become my friends through conversations which we had had together, or benefits which I had bestowed upon them, sought to persuade me to draw together into one work the various utterances which it had been my duty to make, during my tenure of office, for the explanation of different affairs. They desired me to do this, in order that future generations might recognise the ... En savoir plus
