PERIODS OF EUROPEAN HISTORY

General EditorARTHUR HASSALL, M.A.,
Student of Christ Church, Oxford.

The object of this series is to present in separate Volumes a comprehensive and trustworthy account of the general development of European History, and to deal fully and carefully with the more prominent events in each century.

The Volumes embody the results of the latest investigations, and contain references to and notes upon original and other sources of information.

No such attempt to place the History of Europe in a comprehensive, detailed, and readable form before the English Public has previously been made, and the Series forms a valuable continuous History of Medival and Modern Europe.

THE DARK AGES, 476918

By C. W. C. OMAN, M.A., Chichele Professor of Modern History in the University of Oxford.

Forming Volume I. of Periods of European History .

A thorough master of his subject, and possessed of a gift for clear expositions, he has supplied the student with a most valuable and helpful book.Spectator.

No better exponent of this era, so full of difficulties and complications, could have been chosen.Journal of Education.

Mr. Oman has done his work well. His narrative is Clear and interesting, and takes full account of recent research.English Historical Review.

This volume will be valued by all historical students as supplying a real want in our historical literature, and supplying it well.... His touch is sure and his insight keen. For the accuracy of his facts his historical reputation is a sufficient guarantee.Times.

THE EMPIRE AND THE PAPACY, 9181273

By T. F. TOUT, M.A., Professor of Medival and Modern History in the University of Manchester.

Forming Volume II. of Periods of European History .

This admirable and impartial work.... A more trustworthy historical treatise on the period and subject has not hitherto appeared.Morning Post.

One of the best of the many good historical textbooks which have come out of our universities in recent years.Times.

Altogether Professor Tout has given us a most trustworthy adjunct to the study of medival times, which all who may be called upon to interpret those times to others may safely recommend and themselves profit by.English Historical Review.

THE CLOSE OF THE MIDDLE AGES, 12731494

By R. LODGE, M.A., LL.D., Professor of History at the University of Edinburgh.

Forming Volume III. of Periods of European History .

The book is admirably written, it contains maps and genealogical tables, an exhaustive index, and a bibliography which students will value as an aid to the interpretation of the whole period as well as a clue to any part of it.Standard.

We are exceedingly thankful for the Series, and as we have already said, to Prof. Lodge. There is no longer any excuse for English-speaking teachers to be wholly ignorant of the history of Europe. The obligation lies on them to purchase these volumes, and then read, mark, learn, and inwardly digest them, so that they can supplement their teaching with intelligible comment.School World.

The book must be regarded as quite indispensable to all English students of the late Middle Ages.University Correspondent.

Professor Lodges book has the supreme merit of clearness, not less than that of conciseness.Pall Mall Gazette.

A work of great value on one of the most difficult and at the same time one of the most important periods of European history. The book is a monument of skill and labour.Aberdeen Journal.

EUROPE IN THE 16 TH CENTURY, 14941598

By A. H. Johnson , M.A., Historical Lecturer at Merton, Trinity, and University Colleges, Oxford.

Forming Volume IV. of Periods of European History .

A singularly clear, thorough, and consistent account of the great movements and great events of the time, and the volume may be accepted as one of the best extant handbooks to a period as complex as it is important.Times.

In the present volume Mr. A. H. Johnson has made a useful and unpretentious contribution to a Series of which it can be said more truly than of most series that it supplies a real want. Mr. Johnson is well known as one of the most experienced and successful teachers of history at Oxford, and the book has all the merits which the fact of being written by a good teacher can give it. It is clear, sensible, and accurate, and commendably free from fads or bias.Manchester Guardian.

There is certainly no other single book in English which covers the ground so adequately.University Correspondent.

Mr. Johnsons narrative is clear and accurate, and his grasp of the history of his period wonderfully strong and comprehensive.Journal of Education.

THE ASCENDANCY OF FRANCE, 15981715

By H. O. Wakeman , M.A., Late Fellow of All Souls College, Oxford.

Forming Volume V. of Periods of European History .

His story is no dry compendium, but a drama, each act and scene of which has its individual interest.Guardian.

Mr. Wakeman has produced an excellent sketch, both clear and concise.Oxford Magazine.

Mr. Wakemans book is a sound, able, and useful one, which will alike give help to the student, and attract the cultivated general reader.Manchester Guardian.

A thoroughly scholarly and satisfactory monograph.Leeds Mercury.
