This scientific volume is written by one of the leading classics of the 19th century. Theodore Mommsen, winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature, not only laid out Roman history before Roman Republic and the reign of Julius Caesar, but also closely compared the political thought and terminology of the ancient Republic, especially during its last century, with with of its time. The notebook used by Theodore Mommsen for his Remish Gesicte or The History of Rome. The History of Rome is a multivolume history of ancient Rome written by Theodore Mommsen (1817-1903). Originally published by Reimer and Hirzel, Leipzig as three volumes from 1854-1856, the work was devoted to the Roman Republic. A subsequent book was published that dealt with the provinces of the Roman Empire. Recently, another book about the Empire was published, reconstructed from lecture notes. The initial three volumes were widely accepted after publication; indeed, Roman history made Mommsen famous in one day. Still read and cited, this prolific Mommsen is the most famous work. The work was specifically quoted when Mommsen was awarded the Nobel Prize. The Genesis of Theodore Mommsen in 1863, writing history followed Mommsen's earlier achievements in the study of ancient Rome. He himself was not designed to write history, but the opportunity presented itself in 1850 while at the University of Leipzig, where Mommsen was thirty-two years a special professor of law. Invited to give a public lecture while in Leipzig, I made an address about Gracchi. Reimer and Hirsel, the publishers, were present, and two days later they asked me to write a Roman story for their series. After being fired from the University for revolutionary activities, Mommsen accepted the offer to publish partly for my existence, and partly because the work is very attractive to me. Publishers specified that the work focused on events and circumstances, and avoided discussing the scientific process. While they certainly wanted the esteemed academic work to match their acclaimed tv series on history, Carl Reimer and Solomon Hirsel also sought one with literary merit that would be available and appeal to an educated public. As a scientist, Mommsen was an active participant in the latest achievements in ancient Roman studies. However, Mommsen also had some experience as a journalist. It is quite possible that he will be able to become a popular academic author. The time has come for this work, Mommsen wrote to the Roman Studies Officer, more than ever it is necessary to present to a wider audience the results of our research. Original history was originally conceived as a five-volume work covering Roman history since its inception to Emperor Diocletian (284-305). The first three volumes, which covered the beginning of Rome up to the fall of the republic, ending with the reforms of Julius Caesar, were published in 1854, 1855, and 1856, as Remish Geschichte. These three volumes have really become popular, very popular. Their success was immediate. Here a professional scientist presented to his readers the prose that was of such strength and such an understanding of the details, combined with such such a self- confident skill of an extensive field of learning. Especially in the third volume of Mommsen, as the narrative told of how the political crisis in the Roman Republic came to its final climax, he wrote with a fire of imagination and emotions almost unknown in professional history. Here was scientific training with the stylistic power of the novel. These first three volumes of Remish Gesicte have remained popular in Germany, with eight published during Mommsen's lifetime. After his death in 1903, eight more German publications were published. Later volumes of the Province of the Roman Empire, 117 AD. The planned fourth volume, covering Roman history under the Empire, was postponed until The Mommsen's then 15-volume work on the Roman inscriptions was completed. This task required his services as a researcher, writer and editor who occupied Mommsen for many years. After repeated delays, the projected fourth volume was eventually abandoned or at least not published; the early manuscript may have been lost in the fire. Despite the absence of the fourth volume, in 1885, Mommsen was ready for another volume about ancient Roman history; he described the imperial provinces. In Germany this work was published as volume five of it Geschichte Remish. In thirteen chapters, Mommsen discusses the various provinces of the Roman Empire, each of which is a separate topic. There was no neglected narrative of political events, often dramatic, as was the case in Mommsen's popular chronological account of the Roman Republic in its first three volumes. The English translation was entitled The Province of the Roman Empire from Caesar to Diofleia. In 1992, a reconstructed edition of what was the missing fourth volume of Mommsen on the Empire was released. It was based on the recently discovered lecture notes of two of Mommsen's students: Sebastian Hensel (father) and Paul Hensel (son). Two Hensels took note of lectures on roman politics, with which Professor Mommsen read at the University of Berlin from 1882 to 1886. Alexander S demand opened them in 1980 in a bookstore in Nuremberg. Edited by Barbara Sprost and Alexander Sprost, the notes were given by a reconstructed German text, Ryumishe Kaisergeshicht. In English, modern English translations were the work of William Dixon, then professor of divinity at the University of Glasgow. The first three German volumes (which contained five books) were published between 1862 and 1866 by R. Bentley and Son, London. For several decades, Professor Dixon prepared further English editions of this translation without keeping up with Mommsen's changes in German. All told, about a hundred editions and reissues of English translation were published. In 1958, a selection of the last two books The story was produced by Dero A. Saunders and John H. Collins for a shorter English version. The content was chosen to highlight Mommsen's account of the socio-political struggles that led to the fall of the Republic. Subject to new annotations and revised translations, the book is an aversion, revealing a historical chronology. With austerity Mommsen is shown narrating about serious political drama and illuminating its consequences; the book concludes with a long description of the new government order put on by Julius Caesar. As for Mommsen's 1885 fifth volume of the Roman provinces, Professor Dr. Dixon immediately began to monitor his translation. In 1886 it appeared as a province of the Roman Empire. From Caesar to Diofletian. The missing fourth volume of Mommsen was reconstructed from student notes and published in 1992 under the name Remishe Kaisergeshicht. Soon Claire Kreuzl translated it into English as The History of Rome under the Emperors. The overview of the contents of the Republic With exceptions, Mommsen in his Geschichte Remish (1854-1856) narrates a direct chronology of historical events and circumstances. Often strongly worded, he carefully describes the political acts taken by the heroes, demonstrates immediate results, draws implications for the future, while shedding light on the developing society that surrounds them. The chronology of the contents of his five books (in the first three volumes) is brief: the Roman Senate (Cicero attacks Katilina, 63 BC).
