Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from An Ecclesiastical History, Ancient and Modern, From the Birth of Christ, to the Beginning of the Eighteenth Century, Vol. 2 of 6: In Which the Rise, Progress, and Variations of Church Power Are Considered in Their Connexion With the State of Learning and Philosophy, and the Political History of Europe During That Period In order to arrive at a true knowledge of the causes, to which we are to attribute the outward state of the church, and the events which happened to it during this century, we must keep in view the civil history of this period of time. It is, therefore, proper to observe, that, in the beginning of this century, the Roman empire was divided into two distinct sovereignties; of which the one comprehended the eastern provinces, the other those of the west. Arcadius, the emperor of the east, reigned at Constaninople; and Honorius who governed the western provinces, chose Ravenna for the place of his residence. This latter prince, remarkable only for the sweetness of his temper, and the goodness of his heart, neglected the great affairs of the empire; and, inattentive to the weighty duties of his station, held the reins of government with an unsteady hand.
