Book Description
Florus, the author of ‘Epitome of Roman History’, was reportedly born in Africa and lived in Rome during Hadrian’s time. He wrote in a concise and pointed rhetorical style, providing a summary of Roman history and wars in two books in order to show the greatness and decline of Roman morals, from the Founding of Rome to Augustus’ reign. A collection of short poems ascribed to a ‘Florus’ also survives from antiquity, though whether it was the same person as the ‘Epitome’ remains uncertain.

Author: Geoffrey of Monmouth Publisher: Delphi Classics ISBN: 1801701806 Category : History Languages : en Pages : 1491
Book Description
The twelfth century chronicler Geoffrey of Monmouth was the author of one of the most famous and influential works of the Middle Ages. ‘History of the Kings of Britain’ brought the figures of Arthur and Merlin into European literature, ensuring a popularity that continues to this day. It relates the purported history of Britain, from its first settlement by Brutus of Troy to the death of Cadwaladr in the seventh century. It also covers Caesar’s invasions of Britain, Kings Leir and Cymbeline and one of the earliest developed narratives of the fabled King Arthur. Denounced from the first by sober historians, this fictional history still exerted an enormous influence on the course of English literature. Delphi’s Medieval Library provides eReaders with rare and precious works of the Middle Ages, with noted English translations and the original texts.

Author: Soren Kierkegaard Publisher: Delphi Classics ISBN: 1801701490 Category : Philosophy Languages : en Pages : 4435
Book Description
A nineteenth century Danish philosopher and theologian, Søren Kierkegaard was a major influence on the development of existentialism and Protestant theology. He attacked the literary, philosophical and ecclesiastical establishments of his day for misrepresenting the highest task of human existence—becoming oneself in an ethical and religious sense. His critical works on organised religion, Christianity, morality, ethics and psychology reveal a fondness for metaphor, irony and parables. Many of his philosophical essays deal with how one lives as a “single individual”, giving priority to concrete human reality over abstract thinking, while highlighting the importance of personal choice. This eBook presents Kierkegaard’s collected works, with numerous illustrations, rare translations, concise introductions and the usual Delphi bonus material. (Version 1) * Beautifully illustrated with images relating to Kierkegaard’s life and works * Concise introductions to the treatises * All the major essays, with individual contents tables * Images of how the books were first published, giving your eReader a taste of the original texts * Excellent formatting of the texts * Rare translations by David F. Swenson, Lillian Marvin Swenson and Walter Lowrie, digitised here for the first time * Includes the seminal autobiography– available in no other collection * Features a bonus biography – discover Kierkegaard’s intriguing life * Ordering of texts into chronological order and genres CONTENTS: The Books Either/Or (1843) Fear and Trembling (1843) Repetition (1843) Upbuilding Discourses (1844) Philosophical Fragments (1844) The Concept of Dread (1844) Three Discourses on Imagined Occasions (1845) Stages on Life’s Way (1845) Works of Love (1847) Christian Discourses (1848) The Lilies of the Field and the Birds of the Air (1849) Three Discourses at the Communion on Fridays (1849) The Sickness unto Death (1849) Selections from the Writings of Kierkegaard (1923) The Autobiography The Point of View for my Work as an Author (1851) The Biography Introduction to Kierkegaard (1923) by Lee M.
