HISTORY OF ROME AND THE POPESIN THE MIDDLE AGES
Authorised English Translation, edited by Luigi Cappadelta.Profusely Illustrated. With maps, plans, and photographs ofbasilicas, mosaics, coins, and other memorials.
“The present work might be described as a history of themediæval Popes, with the history of the City of Rome and of itscivilization as a background, the author’s design being so to combinethe two stories as to produce a true picture of what Romewas in the Middle Ages.”—Author’s Preface.
The three volumes now issued represent Volume I in the bulkyGerman original. This portion of Father Grisar’s great enterpriseis self-contained, and the history is brought down to the epoch ofSt. Gregory I.
“A valuable and interesting book, well translated ... will,we are sure, be welcomed by all students and lovers of Rome,whether Catholic or not.”—The Tablet.
“Dr. Grisar’s splendid history has long been the treasuredpossession of students of mediæval art and church history. Wewelcome its appearance in an English translation, which has beenexecuted with scrupulous care and with every advantage of type,paper, and illustration.”—The Guardian.
