Excerpt from Supplemental Notes to the View of the State of Europe During the Middle Ages
In the mean time, however, the long period of the Middle Ages had been investigated by many of my distinguished contemporaries with signal success, and I have been anxious to bring my own volumes nearer to the boundaries of the historic domain, as it has been enlarged within our own age. My object has been, accordingly, to reconsider those portions of the Work which relate to subjects discussed by eminent writers since its publication, to illustrate and enlarge some passages which had been imperfectly or ob' scurely treated, and to acknowledge with freedom my own errors. It appeared most convenient to adopt a form of publication by which the possessors of any edition may have the advantage of these Supplemental Notes, which will not much affect the value of their copy.
