Originally published in 1901. PREFACE: The subject of this book is the transition from Classical to the Mediaeval. It seeks to follow the changes undergone by classic thought, letters and art, on their way to form part of the intellectual development of the Middle Ages, and to show how pagan tastes and ideals gave place to the ideals of Christianity and to Christian sentiments. The argument reaches backward to classic Greece and Rome and forward into the middle ages; but the discussion centres in the period extending from the forth to the seventh century. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900's and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
