THE writer desires to express his obligations to Dean Merivale for the permission granted by him to employ the History of the Romans under the Empire' as a guide in many portions of this book. Also, he acknowledges his debt to Messrs Church & Brodribb for their kind consent-conveyed by their publishers, Messrs Macmillan & Co. - to his availing himself of their admirable translations of the Agricola,'' Germany,' and History' of Tacitus. For the Annals,' the Oxford translation, and, on one or two occasions, Mr Murphy's, have been used. In the chapter entitled "The Orators," the citations are a paraphrase, not a translation. That a far larger space is assigned to the 'History' than to the Annals' may require some explanation. |
