Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from History of the Eighteenth Century and of the Nineteenth Till the Overthrow of the French Empire, Vol. 6: With Particular Reference to Mental Cultivation and Progress The author has written a preface to the present volume, chiefly explanatory of the relation which the present form of his work bears to his former publications on the same subject. This preface would be in a great measure unintelligible and uninteresting to any but his German readers: it contains however some matters of general interest, of which the translator thinks it his duty to take notice, especially as they are calculated to give clearer views of the nature and objects of the whole work, of the author´s ideas of the value and uses of History, of the special objects contemplated, and of the point of view from which the subject has been considered. After the author had devoted very many years, not only to the study but also to the composition of History, when he had brought his work down to a comparatively recent period, he made two journeys to Paris, in order to obtain that information from personal investigation which books cannot give. There, in the very seat of the Revolution, be had the opportunity of discussing the events of the immediately preceding period with the very spectators of and actors in the Revolution, the older republicans and the partisans of the Emperor.
