The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire, Vol. ane (Entire)
Read by David Timson
The Decline and Autumn of the Roman Empire has always maintained its initial appeal to both the general public and scholars akin. Its sheer calibration is daunting, encompassing over a millennium of history, covering not only the Western Empire from the days of the early emperors to its extinction in Ad 476, but also the Eastern Empire, which lasted for some other thousand years until the Turks vanquished information technology in 1453. Only Gibbon's style, part historical fact and function literature, is enticing, and the sheer honesty of the man, who endeavours to be scrupulously impartial in his presentation, endears him to the reader. In this recording, David Timson incorporates the virtually salient of Gibbon'south footnotes. In Volume I (chapters IXV), Gibbon opens by setting the scene with the Empire as it stood in the time of Augustus (d. Advertizement 14) earlier praising the fourth dimension of the Antonines (AD 98–180). The death of Marcus Aurelius and the accretion of Commodus and his successors ushers in turbulent and dangerous times which were only occasionally marked by a wise and temperate ruler. The volume ends in AD 324, with Constantine the Slap-up becoming undisputed Roman emperor, uniting both the East and Western Empires.
