BOOKS ON ROMAN SOCIETY

By W. WARDE FOWLER

Social Life at Rome in the Age of Cicero

_Cloth, Illustrated, 8vo, $2.25 net_

A notable example of the kind of history that deals with men rather than with institutions and events is “Social Life at Rome in the Age of Cicero,” by the learned scholar and fascinating writer W. Warde Fowler. The book was originally intended as a companion to Professor Tucker’s “Life in Ancient Athens”; but it grew beyond the limits of that volume because of the wealth of material Mr. Fowler felt himself compelled to utilize. As the author points out in his preface, there is no book in the English language which supplies a picture of life and manners, of education, morals, and religion, in the intensely interesting period of the Roman Republic. The age of Cicero is one of the most important periods of Roman history, and the Ciceronian correspondence, of more than nine hundred contemporary letters, is the richest treasure-house of social life that has survived from any period of classical antiquity.

Roman Society, from Nero to Marcus Aurelius

_Second edition, Cloth, 8vo, $2.50 net_

“The most important contribution yet made in English to our knowledge of the way in which all classes of Roman society, including the aristocracy, the plebeians, the freedmen and the slaves, ordinarily lived in the relatively happy age of the Antonines is presented in this admirable work, not one of whose fifteen chapters is devoid of illumination and fascination.... It should be distinctly understood that this work is the product of first-hand, not second-hand, erudition and investigation.... This book is what it purports to be, a social, not a political history.”—M. W. H. in _New York Sun_.

Roman Society, in the Last Century of the Western Empire

_Second edition, Cloth, 8vo, $1.75 net_

“We want to emphasize the point that this volume is not a mere raking over of dry bones, with nothing but an antiquarian interest for the reader of to-day. It is more vital to the student of modern social, religious, and political tendencies than a large share of the strictly modern sociological theses, studies, and dissertations now issuing in such profusion from the workshops of the doctor-making universities. And, aside from its inherent importance, its thoughts are so lucidly and attractively expressed that no intelligent reader, whether a Latinist or not, can fail to find it pleasant reading.”—_The Evening Post_, New York.

PROF. MARTIN L. D’OOGE’S

The Acropolis of Athens

_Cloth, Illustrated, 8vo, $4.00 net_

“This handsome book embodies the results of a number of years of study and of repeated visits to Athens, where in 1886-87 author was director of the American School of Classical Studies. While some of the older problems connected with the history of the Acropolis have been solved by the aid of the discoveries completed in 1889, others have been raised which await further light. A final satisfactory history of the Acropolis and its monuments may never be written, but this work gives a summary of the most important contributions to its history and states the results of the author’s study of the site and of the ruins upon it.”

His new book is published as a companion volume to Professor Seymour’s “Life in the Homeric Age,” which proved so popular. It is designed both for readers who have a general interest in Greek history and Greek art and for students and visitors at Athens who desire to use a handbook upon the spot. The history of the Acropolis is traced from the time of its earliest occupation down to the present, and the volume is handsomely illustrated.

_A COMPANION VOLUME_

PROF. THOMAS DAY SEYMOUR’S

Life in the Homeric Age

_Decorated cloth, gilt top, 8vo, illustrated, $4.00 net_

A study of the inhabitants of Greece and the Levant at the period of the Homeric Poems which furnishes a clear and fairly complete picture of the life which was familiar to them. “From the poet’s language,” the author says, “he has attempted to discover what was before the poet’s mind.... Homer’s picture of the life of his age is of particular interest to the modern reader since it is the earliest account extant of the culture from which our own is a true lineal descendant.”

“Absolutely free from speculation and controversy, the volume will surely prove valuable to every student of Greek life and literature. It has the further advantage of being the only work of its kind on the English book market to-day.”—_New York Tribune._

Life in Ancient Athens

The Social and Public Life of a Classical Athenian from Day to Day

By T. G. TUCKER, Litt.D.

_Cloth, illustrated, 8vo, $1.25 net; by mail $1.40_

“There’s nothing dusty, fusty, musty, about this book.... Evidences of a mastery of the subject abound everywhere.... When you get through the book you will believe that Athens is just around the corner, and you will know its people in nature and in habits better than you do the dwellers in the apartment house next door.”—_The Cleveland Leader._
