Excerpt from The Dark Ages Or. In other words, the darkness Of the Dark Ages comes to an end about the time when Italian scholars reproduce the forms Of classical poetry in their modern tongue. Trissino's Sophonisba, the first Italian tragedy in regular form, was an historical beacon mark ing the limit. Over the Gothic centuries the his torian travels quickly till he comes to at length Erasmus. It is all dark, and it is all middle. The biographer of Dryden's friend, Mr Walter Moyle, expresses the common opinion: From Ann. Dom. 440 to 1440 was a long but dark Period Of Time, and he aimed only to preserve a Thread Of the History Of that Middle Age.

Excerpt from Dramatic Traditions of the Dark Ages The author of this book sincerely hopes that it will not be taken as a history of the drama in the Dark Ages. He does not assert more than a sporadic cultivation of what would now be called the legitimate theater at any part of the period between Constantine and Otto III. He has merely attempted to hold a brief for one of the parties to a controversy which, in his Opinion, has either been ignored or decided incorrectly, for nearly three-quarters of a millennium. This con troversy must be brought to a final decision before the literary history of Europe can be written cor rectly. As was recently said in The N ation (vol. LXXXII, No. 2128, p. 307, col. The im mense value to mediaeval Europe of the influence coming from the Eastern Empire is only in part recognized as yet; and, if this be true in the domain of art, it is equally true in nearly every other department of human activity.

Excerpt from An Introduction to the Study of the Middle Ages The period of time of which this book treats is that lying between the greatest splendor of the Roman Empire and the beginning of what may properly be called the Middle Ages. It is a period which has often been passed over lightly by historians or dismissed with a sneer as the Dark Ages of the world. And this was done in spite of the fact that perhaps the greatest historian, all things considered, who has ever written in the English language, chose just this period for his theme. It is not improbable that the very title of Gibbon's great work may have done its part toward creating a false impression of the time he describes. If one comes to our period as a time of Decline and Fall merely, one can hardly fail to carry away from the study of it a depressing sense of gloom and wretchedness. Gibbon himself, great historian as he was, did not succeed in avoiding this danger. His splendid narrative is on the whole a mournful one. We feel ourselves to be dealing with the wild movements of men, either half brutal or wholly brutalized. We see a magnificent edifice crumbling to decay, but we are not impressed with the elements of life contained in this very process.

Excerpt from History of the Middle Ages With the death of Theodosius the Great in 395 begins the history of the Middle Ages. It is so called because it is a narration of the events which ended in the overthrow Of the ancient civilized or Roman world, and laid the foundation of the princi pal states Of modern times. Thus all agree in look ing upon the Middle Ages as a period of transition, during which was brought about the union of three societies, the Roman Empire, the barbarian world, and the Church, that at the death Of Theodosius stood in Opposition to each other.
