Excerpt from The Last Cæsars of Byzantium I offer to the public a volume which may derive interest from the present attitude of Russia and Turkey in regard to each other, and from the great russian-turkish question which now claims the attention of every European Government. It con tains a simple narrative of the events which agitated the Byzantine empire, from the accession of the Palaeologi to the conquest of Greece by the Otto mans. I have endeavored to trace, together with the rapid progress of the Turks, the decline of the Greeks, whilst province after province is subj ugated, and one by one cities are snatched from their grasp, until at last the fall of the capital dealt the fatal blow to that power which had ruled for so many centuries.

Excerpt from The Byzantine Empire Fifty years ago the word Byzantine was used as a synonym for all that was corrupt and decadent, and the tale of the east-roman Empire was dis missed by modern historians as depressing and monotonous. The great Gibbon had branded the successors of Justinian and Heraclius as a series of vicious weaklings, and for several generations no one dared to contradict him. Two books have served to undeceive the English reader, the monumental work of Finlay, published in 1856, and the more modern volumes of Mr. Bury, which appeared in 1889. Since they have written, the Byzantines no longer need an apologist, and the great work of the east-roman Empire in holding back the Saracen, and in keeping alive throughout the Dark Ages the lamp of learning, is beginning to be realized.

George Finlay's History of the Byzantine and Greek Empires - Volume Two covers the period of history from 666 to 1057. Finlay's work is a detailed history of some of the world's great empires. Volume Two is divided into two distinct books, both included in this publication. Book one is entitled The Contest with the Iconoclasts and covers the period of history from 717 to 867. This book opens with a discussion of the Byzantine Empire under the rule of the Isaurian Dynasty, also known as the Syrian Dynasty. Other chapters in book one are devoted to the reigns of Michael I and Leo V, The Amorian Dynasty, and a general look at the state of the Byzantine Empire during the time period being discussed. Book two examines the consolidation of Byzantine legislation, a period of conquest and military achievement, and what is deemed a period of stationary prosperity. Throughout the work Finlay makes frequent references to other historians whose work he has relied upon, although no bibliography is included. Finlay has put together an extensive history of the Byzantine and Greek Empires, demonstrating an impressive understanding of the major themes in the history of the Byzantines and Greeks.

Excerpt from Byzantine Constantinople: The Walls of the City and Adjoining Historical Sites The attention I have devoted, for many years, to the subject has been sustained by the conviction that the Empire of which New Rome was the capital defended the higher life of mankind against the attacks of formidable antagonists, and rendered eminent service to the cause of human welfare. This is what gives to the archaeological study of the city its dignity and importance. Only a portion of my subject is dealt with in the present volume - the walls of the city, which were the bulwarks of civilization for more than a thousand years, and the adjoining sites and monuments memorable in history.

Excerpt from The Byzantine Empire: The Rearguard of European Civilization Roman Empire. There is at present, I believe, no book on the subject in the English language between Professor Oman's sketch in the 'story of the Nations' series and monumental works like those of Gibbon, Finlay, and Bury. The Early Middle Age of Europe has always had a fascination for me, and on the wonderful story of the Byzantine' Empire I have concentrated much atten tion. When, therefore, Mr. Gordon Home broached the idea of the present volume, I readily undertook the task, believing that a knowledge of what was required, combined with a real enthusiasm for my subject, might enable me to produce a book which would fill the gap.

Excerpt from A History of the Eastern Roman Empire: From the Fall of Irene to the Accession of Basil I. (A. D. 802-867) Tm: history of Byzantine civilization, in which social elements of the West and the East are so curiously blended and fused into a unique culture, will not be written for many years to come. It cannot be written until each successive epoch has been exhaustively studied and its distinguishing characteristics clearly ascertained. The fallacious assumption, once accepted as a truism, that the Byzantine spirit knew no change or shadow of turning, that the social atmosphere of the Eastern Rome was always immutably the same, has indeed been dis credited; but even in recent sketches of this civilization by competent hands we can see unconscious survivals of that belief. The curve of the whole development has still to be accurately traced, and this can only be done by defining each section by means of the evidence which applies to that section alone. N 0 other method will enable us to discriminate the series of gradual changes which transformed the Byzantium of Justinian into that - so different in a thousand ways - of the last Constantine.

Excerpt from Constantine, the Last Emperor of the Greeks: Or the Conquest of Constantinople by the Turks (A. D. 1453), After the Latest Historical Researches The German Emperor Frederic III. in a letter written June 1453 to Pope Nicholas V., lamenting greatly the catastrophe on the Bosphorus, calls Constantinople "the capital of the Eastern Empire, the head of Greece, the home of arts and literature" ("Orientalis imperii sedem, Graeciae caput. . . veluti domicilium litterarum artiumque"). And indeed, from the time of Constantine the Great to the time when the dawn of Renaissance aroused Italy to her noble task, Constantinople was the capital of Christian civilization. Its place in the history of the world has been always a most remarkable one, - Rome being the only city which can successfully bear comparison with it.
