Excerpt from The Last Pagan Every thoughtful man, when he has reached the "forties" of life, must have developed some interest in philosophic thought and have formed some sort of philosophy of his own, perhaps intangible and incommunicable to others, yet sufficient unto himself. Such men have lived in every age, and will continue to be unless the race is to perish of moral inanition. The history of one such clear and brave thinker of the Middle Ages, hitherto not merely forgotten but utterly unknown, is embraced between the covers of this little book.

Excerpt from Rome of to-Day and Yesterday: The Pagan City At last volcanic activity, on any great scale, ceased among these hills. Then human activity began. There was first the long prologue of pro-historic nomadic life, and then the peaceful era of agriculture, the Golden Age, the reign of Saturn, which the Latin poets delighted to recall; and then began, with Roma Quadrata on the Palatine, the great drama in many acts, which is very far from being ended yet.

Excerpt from After Life in Roman Paganism In the year 1883 a legacy of eighty thousand dollars was left to the President and Fellows of Yale College in the city of New Haven, to be held in trust, as a gift from her children, in memory of their beloved and honored mother, Mrs. Hepsa Ely Silliman. On this foundation Yale College was requested and directed to establish an annual course of lectures designed to illustrate the presence and providence, the wisdom and goodness of God, as manifested in the natural and moral world. These were to be designated as the Mrs. Hepsa Ely Silliman Memorial Lectures. It was the belief of the testator that any orderly presentation of the facts of nature or history contributed to the end of this foundation more effectively than any attempt to emphasize the elements of doctrine or of creed; and he therefore provided that lectures on dogmatic or polemical theology should be excluded from the scope of this foundation, and that the subjects should be selected, rather, from the domains of natural science, and history, giving special prominence to astronomy, chemistry, geology, and anatomy. It was further directed that each annual course should be made the basis of a volume to form part of a series constituting a memorial to Mrs. Silliman. The memorial fund came into the possession of the Corporation of Yale University in the year 1901; and the present volume constitutes the sixteenth of the series of memorial lectures.

Excerpt from Paganism and Christianity IE any great classical writers of the ancient world, like Seneca or Cicero, could come to life again, nothing surely would astonish them more than the descriptions they might read in our books of the state of the world when they left it, of its moral depravity, and the absence of all religious ideas. One would gladly hear what they would say to it all; but, failing that, it only remains to enter as much as possible into their tone of thought, and to present the case between Christianity and Paganism as they might do if they could now speak for them selves, and had at their command eighteen centuries of Church history and all the writings of the Fathers and theologians.

Excerpt from Beacon Lights of History, Vol. 1: The Old Pagan Civilizations T has been my Object in these Lectures to give the substance of accepted knowledge pertaining to the leading events and characters of history; and in treating such a variety of subjects, extending over a period of more than six thousand years, each of which might fill a volume, I have sought to present what is true rather than what is new. Although most of these Lectures have been delivered, in some form, during the last forty years, in most of the cities and in many of the literary institutions of this country, I have carefully revised them within the last few years, in order to avail myself of the latest light shed on the topics and times of which they treat.

Excerpt from Paganism and Christianity in Egypt The present work was very nearly completed at the time of the author's death, but had not received his final corrections. It is known that he intended to write an additional chapter summarising his conclusions, but no trace of this has been found among his papers. Hence two sentences have been added within brackets on p. 219 in order to round off the chapter. A few additions have also been made in the rest of the volume and placed within brackets, and any references which were wanting have been filled in. The editors have been assisted in the reading of the proofs by two other. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Pagan Ireland There is an old tale told in Ireland of a loveable and bright and handsome youth named Donn-bo, who was the best singer of "songs of idleness," and the best teller of "King-stories" in the world. He could tell a tale of each king who reigned at Tara from the Tale of the Destruction of Dind Righ, when Cobthach Coelbreg was killed, down to the kings who reigned in his own time. One night before a battle, the warriors said: "Make minstrelsy for us, O Donn-bo." But Donn-bo said: "No word at all will come on my lips to-night; therefore, for this night let the King-buffoon of Ireland amuse you. But to-morrow at this hour, in whatever place they and I shall be, I will make minstrelsy for the fighting-men." For the warriors had said that unless Donn-bo went with them on that hosting, not one of them would go. On the evening of the morrow Donn-bo lay dead, his fair young body stretched across the body of the King of Erin, for he had died in defending his chief. But his head had rolled away and lay amongst a wisp of growing rushes by the water-side. At the feasting of the army on that night, a warrior said: "Where is Donn-bo, that he may make minstrelsy for us, and tell us the King-stories of Erin?"
