Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Saint Gregory the Great Those who practise the craft of the historian have continually been exercised as to its proper function. With some it is an art, a sister art to that of the painter, and its proper sphere is that of describing the panorama of human life as it has passed across the great stage of Time. Largely oblivious of moral tendencies or of the purpose of the whole show, its aim, they urge, ought to be to gratify the craving of us all for the picturesque, the strange, and the dramatic. Like those who paint history instead of writing it, they are again divided into two schools. One of them pursues minute detail, spends much time and labour in verifying facts, and claims that truth and not moral profit being its chief goal, all things are worth recording that add anything to the picture. They are the Pre-Raphaelites of our profession. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
