Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Scots Worthies: Their Lives and Testimonies, Including Many Additional Notes, and Lives of Eminent Worthies Not Contained in the Original Collection There is nothing of much interest in modern history till we come to the middle of the fourteenth century. There is The changes which the kingdoms of Europe underwent in the Middle and the wars that were waged betwixt its various races, were of small significance in themselves; whatever interest they possess is borrowed from that to which they led. They paved the way for that grand renewal of human society, that brightening of the worlds destinies, which gave such a glory to the sixteenth century. Viewed in that light these events are worthy of study, they constitute a chain of progress tending to a better state of things; in short, without them the glorious edifice of religion and liberty which we now behold could not have been set up. This justifies us in going back a little way, and tracing rapidly the steps by which the Great Ruler advanced to the execution of his purposes toward the race of man. Looking back to the fifth century, we behold the day of the Roman power closing in a night of terrible disaster.
