CORRESPONDING MEMBER OF THE ROYAL ACADEMY OF LINCEI OF ROME.
,, 1 will at least hope that these volumes may encourage a spirit of research into
history, and may in some measure assist in directing it; that they may con-
tribute to the conviction that history is to be studied as a whole, and according
to its philosophical divisions, not such as merely geographical and chronological;
that the history of Greece and Rome is not an idle inquiry about remote ages and
forgotten institutions, but a living picture of things present, fitted not so much
for the curiosity of the scholar, as the instruction of the statesman and the
citizen.-AROLD, Preface to Thucydides, vol. iii.
SECOND SERIF-S. SECOND EDITION.
