Sinopsis:

Edward Gibbon's Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire compresses thirteen turbulent centuries into an epic narrative shot through with insight, irony and incisive character analysis. Sceptical about Christianity, sympathetic to the barbarian invaders and the Byzantine Empire, constantly aware of how political leaders often achieve the exact opposite of what they intend, Gibbon was both alert to the broad pattern of events and significant revealing details.

Acerca del autor: Edward Gibbon (1737-1794), English historian. It was on a visit to Rome that he conceived the idea of his magnificent and panoramic history The History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire (6 vol., 1776–88) which won immediate acclaim, despite some harsh criticism. Gibbon himself was assured of the greatness of his work, which is, indeed, one of the most-read historical works of modern times.

Soft cover. Condici�n: Fair. Penguin Books,WILL COMBINE BOOKS TO SAVE POSTAGE IF POSSIBLE.VINTAGE SOFT COVER MID SIZE-CREASES AND FOXING DUE TO AGE= 1995 Used Although it covers no less than thirteen centuries of history, writes David Womersley, Gibbon's Decline and Fall 'is never routine, always alert with humanity and intelligence, often surprising in its sympathies' It counts, quite simply, as 'one of the greatest narratives in European literature' This definitive three-volume edition presents a complete and unmodernized text, the author's own comments and notes, and his famous Vindication The third volume examines the enfeebled state of the Byzantine empire and the spread of Islam Later sections consider the fierce clash of religions in the Crusades and to conclude this great work, Gibbon offers an overview of the mediaeval papacy and a history of Rome up until the seventeenth century.
