Synopsis
Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Aus der Bibliothek von Prof. Wolfgang Haase, langjährigem Herausgeber der ANRW und des International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT) / From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - sehr guter Zustand / very good condition - ROMA - THE CONFLICT OF RELIGIONS IN THE EARLY ROMAN EMPIRE - CHAPTER I - ROMAN RELIGION - On the Ides of March in the year 44 B.C. Julius Caesar lay dead at the foot of Pompey's statue. His body had twenty three wounds. So far the conspirators had done their work thoroughly, and no farther. They had made no preparation for the government of the Roman world. They had not realized that they were removing the great organizing intelligence which stood between the world and chaos, and back into chaos the world swiftly rolled. They had hated personal government; they were to learn that the only alternative was no government at all. " Be your own Senate yourself " wrote Cicero to Plancus in despair. There was war, there were faction fights, massacres, confiscations, conscriptions. The enemies of Rome came over her borders, and brigandage flourished within them. -- At the end of his first Georgie Virgil prays for the triumph ;of the one hope which the world sawfor the preservation and the rule of the young Caesar, and he sums up in a few lines the porror from which mankind seeks to be delivered. " Right and [wrong are confounded ; so many wars the world over, so many forms of wrong; no worthy honour is left to the plough; the lusbandmen are marched away and the fields grow dirty; the hook has its curve straightened into the sword-blade. In the Last, Euphrates is stirring up war, in the West, Germany : nay, :lose-neighbouring cities break their mutual league and draw he sword, and the war-god's unnatural fury rages over the vhole world.
