Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Dublin Review, Vol. 49: November, 1860, and February, 1861 Art. I. - 1. Chronicon de. Bello, nunc primum typis editum. Londini: Impensis Societatis [Anglia Christiana]. 1846. 2. The Chronicle of Battle Abbey, from 1066 to 1176, now first translated, with Notes and an Abstract of the subsequent History of the Establishment. Bj Makk Antony Lower, M. A., Member of the Societies of Antiquaries of Normandy and of America, and of the Academy of Sciences of Caen. London: John Russell Smith. 1851. A Large picture requires innumerable studies of detail. Every head, every hand, each figure and each ornament must be thought over and sketched and studied as if the artist´s object was, in each case, to show how it, and it alone, stood in the original scene. The painter has thus two great departments into which his labour divides itself. The study of minute, separate parts, and then the combination of all these details into one harmonious whole. The work of the historian contains a similar division. Unless he has felt that nothing can be too small, too insignificant for his attention, he does not deserve to be allowed to use the pen of the writer of history. His broad views will be bold fallacies, and his sweeping generalizations will simply mislead. In ordinary life, we should be incapable of giving an account of any complicated chain of events unless we had noticed with accuracy and care each succeeding circumstance. We are quite unable to give a truthful sketch of the character of any one with whose daily, and even trivial, actions we are not familiar.
