Excerpt from The Origin of Tyranny The views expressed in the following chapters were first published in the Journal of Hellenic Studies for 1906 in a short paper which gave a few pages each to Samos and Athens and a few sentences each to Lydia, Miletus, Ephesus, Argos, Corinth, and Megara. The chapters on Argos, Corinth, and Rome are based on papers read to the Oxford Philological Society in 1913 and to the Bristol branch of the Classical Association in 1914. As regards the presentation of my material here, it has been my endeavour to make the argument intelligible to readers who are not classical scholars and archaeologists. The classics have ceased to be a water-tight compartment in the general scheme of study and research, and my subject forms a chapter in general economic history which might interest students of that subject who are not classical scholars. On the other hand classical studies have become so specialised and the literature in each department has multiplied so enormously that unless monographs can be made more or less complete in themselves and capable of being read without referring to a large number of large and inaccessible books, it will become impossible for classical scholars to follow the work that is being done even in their own subject beyond the limits of their own particular branch. For these reasons ancient authorities have been mainly given in literal English translations, and when, as happens in almost every chapter, information has to be sought from vases, coins, or inscriptions, I have tried to elucidate my point by means of explanatory descriptions and illustrations. The Work has involved me in numerous obligations which I gladly take this opportunity of acknowledging. In 1907 I received grants from the Worts travelling bachelors' fund of Cambridge University and from Gonville and Caius College to visit Greece for the purpose of collecting archaeological evidence upon the history of the early tyranny.

Excerpt from The Tyranny of Shams It was conceived, and much of it was written, during the long voyage from Australia to England. At that time I had issued, if I may include the introduction to English readers of foreign writers, some fifty publications, and in these I had generally described remote periods of history, or even remoter periods of the earth's story or distant regions of the universe. Many had asked me to tell them things more intimate and important than the way in which stars were formed, or the manners of extinct Dino saurs and ancient empresses: asked if thirty years' study of philosophy, science, and history had given me no interest in, or light upon, the problems of the hour. In Australasia this-request was made more insistently than ever. Our ancient prejudices have been transplanted into the soil of the new world.

Excerpt from The Appetite of Tyranny: Including Letters to an Old Garibaldian These sincere and high-minded peace-lov ers are always telling us that citizens no longer settle their quarrels by private vio lence; and that nations should no longer set tle theirs by public violence. They are al ways telling us that we no longer fight duels; and need no longer wage wars. In short, they perpetually base their peace proposals on the fact that an ordinary citizen no longer avenges himself with an axe. But how is he prevented from revenging himself with an axe? If he hits his neighbour on the head with the kitchen chopper, what do we do? About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

The Appetite of Tyranny: Including Letters to an Old Garibaldian by G. K. Chesterton In his book The Appetite of Tyranny, G.K.

Excerpt from The Murderous Tyranny of the Turks No one who has studied the history of the Near East for the last five centuries will be surprised that the Allied Powers have declared their purpose to put an end to the rule of the Turk in Europe, and still less will he dissent from their determination to deliver the Christian pcpu lation of what is called the Turkish Empire, whether in Asia or in Europe, from a Government which during those five centuries has done nothing but oppress them. These changes are indeed long overdue. They ought to have come more than a century ago, because it had then already become manifest that the Turk was hopelessly unfit to govern, with any approach to justice, subject races of a different religion. The Turk has never been of any use for any purpose except fighting. He cannot administer, though in his earlier days he had the sense to employ intelligent Christian administrators. He cannot secure justice. As a governing power, he has always shown himself incapable, corrupt and cruel. He has always destroyed he has never created.

Excerpt from King Mammon and the Heir Apparent In the closing decade of the nineteenth century, reckoned from the earth-visit of a forgotten Christ, Mammon is King of the civilized world. You, my reader, need no presentation to the King. You have faithfully served him; so have I. Neither of us two may have achieved high rank in the King's service; possibly neither has bent the knee in that servile adulation which is the surest means of securing the royal favor: yet we have both honored Mammon. Out of that continued reverence will come servility, and out of servility degradation. Let me whisper to you before it is too late: King Mammon is a tyrant! Tyranny in this free land of America, did you say? About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Patriots and Tyrants History has no period which makes a more vivid appeal to the young reader than the thousand years which we call the Middle Ages. The mediaeval world is just such a world as he would like to live in, where knights ride off on crusades, and kings wander out from their palaces in disguise; where heroes sail away to explore unknown seas, and gay cavaliers sally forth to tournament and joust. It requires no effort to interest boys and girls in this part of history. They turn to it with the enthusiasm with which they seize fairy tales and legends of chivalry and romance, and find in its reality a satisfying response to the desire for a true story. The child's interest being assured, the problem is to make this interest of use in the process of his education. The purpose of this series is to relate this fascinating and heroic past to the present by telling the stories from the point of view of the contribution of the Middle Ages to the world of to - day. The heroes gain a new importance and the stories a new meaning by this treatment. Who the mediaeval builders were may be seen by the titles of\ the followmg books, which make up the series: Bar barian and Noble, Patriots and Tyrants, Kings and Common Folk, Craftsman and Artist, Cavalier and Courtier, Sea Kings and Explorers.
