Book Description
Excerpt from A History of the Literature of Ancient Greece, Vol. 1 of 2: From the Foundation of the Socratic Schools to the Taking of Constantinople by the Turks Being a Continuation of K. O. Müller's Work When K. O. Muller died in 1840, the Society for the Diffusion of Useful Knowledge, for which I was translating the History of Greek Literature from the author's manuscript, commissioned me to complete the work, and a few pages of my continuation had been published, when the Society came to an end. From that time until rather less than three years ago, I heard no more of the book; but the present publishers, having become possessed of the copyright, have requested me to complete my original undertaking, and the following pages are the result. In thus accepting a task, perhaps the most laborious, in proportion to its extent, that I could have undertaken, I have been induced by two motives: first, a wish to fulfil an obligation to the public, and to perform a promised duty to the memory of a distinguished scholar; secondly, a conviction that this book, if completed with tolerable success, would furnish an maid to the classical student which has not been and is not likely to be superseded. With regard to the first of these motives, I am quite aware that there are many who feel a respect for the memory of K. O. Muller, and who wish that his last and not least important work should be completed according to his plan, and that among these there are some who are at least as competent as I can pretend to be to write a history of Greek literature. But, on the other hand, I have every reason to believe that the public announcement of the fact, that one of the translators had been appointed to continue the work by the Society, for which Müller himself was writing it, must have deterred his friends in Germany and England from attempting to perform the same good office.

Book Description
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.
