Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Literal Translation of the First Three Books of Prendeville´s Livy Whether, in tracing the series of the Roman History, from the foundation of the city, I shall employ my, time to good purpose, is a question which I cannot positively determine; nor, were it possible, would I venture to pronounce such determination; for, I am aware that the matter is of high antiquity, and has been already treated by many others; the latest writers always supposing themselves, capable, either of throwing some new light on the subject, or, by the superiority of their talents for composition, of excelling the more inelegant writers who preceded them. However that may be, I shall, at all events, derive no small satisfaction from the reflection that my best endeavours have been exerted in transmitting to posterity the achievements of the greatest people in the world; and if, amidst such a multitude of writers, my name should not emerge from obscurity, I shall console myself by attributing it to the eminent merit of those who stand in my way in the pursuit of fame.
