THE STUDY OF MEDIAEVAL HISTOK BY THE LIBRARY METHOD &3 G ETC HE LI UC-NRLF SB Zflfl THE STUDY MEDIAEVAL HISTORY LIBRARY METHOD HIGH SCHOOLS M. S. GETCHELL, A.M. v TEACHER OF HISTORY, SOMERVILLE ENGLISH HIGH SCHOOL SOMERVILLE, MASS. BOSTON, U.S.A., AND LONDON PUBLISHED BY GINN & COMPANY tm JJreas 1898 G3 COPYRIGHT, 1897 BY M. S. GETCHELL ALL KIGHTS RESEKVKD PREFACE THIS book was prepared for the use of my second year classes in the Somerville English High School, and is pub- lished because of inquiries by many teachers concerning this line of work. It is not intended as an exhaustive study of Mediaeval History, but as a practical work for the class room. A copy should be placed in the hands of each pupil in order to accomplish the end designed. As far as possible, references are to one volume editions, these being considered more economical in time to the student and in expense to the school. That there may be no mistake in regard to the edition cited, a list of books has been care- fully prepared, giving title, author, publisher, and date of publication. At the close of the book are a chronological table of the rulers of England, France, Germany, and the Holy Roman Empire during the Middle Ages, and a short list of historical works arranged alphabetically by countries. I have not touched upon theories or ecclesiastical questions more than is necessary for a good understanding of the period, preferring to leave such matters to the discretion of the teacher. I take this opportunity to acknowledge my indebtedness to those who have aided me in the preparation of this little work. SOMERVILLE, MASS., BOOKS OF KEFERENCE. ADAMS, GEO. BURTON.

MONTGOMERY'S histories are universally acknowl- edged to be, in their departments, unequalled in scholarship, in true historic insight and temper, in interest and class- room availability. They are admittedly the leading text- books on their subjects. Their popularity and wide use have been duly proportionate to their merits. Hundreds of schools and colleges have introduced them, and all report the greatest satisfaction. In brief, the attractive and enduring qualities of Mr. Montgomery's books have proved them preeminently supe- rior to all other historical text-books. QlNN & COMPANY, Publishers, Boston. New York.

Cloth. 523 pages, with an Appendix of 55 pages of supplementary material. Illustrated. For introduction, $1.40. THIS work follows the same general lines as the " Leading Facts of American History." It differs, however, from that manual in several important respects: It is substantially a new work and not simply an expansion of the smaller one. It is much fuller in its treatment of political and consti- tutional history and of all the chief events in the nation's development. In all practicable cases it quotes the exact words of original documents, authorities, and standard writers on the points of greatest interest to the student and the teacher, the object being to let the history of our country speak for itself. It furnishes many hundreds of references to authorities giving volume and page so that they may be readily con- sulted, besides giving great numbers of cross-references from subject to subject. When constitutional points have arisen in debate on im- portant questions, reference is made to the articles of the Constitution, given in the Appendix. The Appendix contains a carefully prepared list of the best books, classified according to periods, relating to American history. GINN & COMPANY, Publishers, Boston. New York. Chicago. Atlanta.

Millions are spent every year on our public schools to educate the future voters. If voters need to understand geography and arithmetic and the other branches taught in the schools, how much more should they know something of the history, principles, and methods of our government. The grand distinction of Professor Macy's book is that it covers the whole ground. The governmental institutions of our country are neces- sarily manifold and complex. They are of many grades, and have many interrelations. To cut from their connections a few facts about the Constitution and the Federal Government, and present these as embracing everything, is a simple and easy method. But it is essentially vicious, and worse than nothing ; for the learner is given radically wrong ideas, and in all his civic thought and civic acts is sure to be more or less in error. The first edition of Professor Macy's book proved conclu- sively that these partial and incorrect methods had worn out. The new edition presents the needed substitute in a mature, complete, and available form. QlNN & COMPANY, Publishers, Boston. New York. Chicago. Atlanta. Dallas. Exercises in Greek Composition With Notes and Vocabulary. BY EDWIN H. HIGLEY, Master in Groton School, Groton, Mass. 12mo. Cloth. 170 pages. For introduction, $1.00. E book is in two parts, Syntax of Verbs and Syntax of Nouns, with a brief introduction on Arrangement, and the Uses of Prepositions, Conjunctions, and Particles. It is designed for preparatory schools and for early courses in college. After the example of recent German works, the exercises are a series of episodes following the narrative of Xenophon's Anabasis through the seven books, to which are added similar exercises based on passages from six books of the Hellenica. The exer- cises are not translations from the text, but the text furnishes the theme and most of the words and phrases, to which, however, other words or expressions belonging to Xenophon's diction are added. The book offers thus a somewhat wide range in its subject-matter and vocabulary, while preserving unity in both, based as it is, upon the acknowledged standard of Attic prose. A feature of the work is a copious English-Greek vocabulary in which the accompanying constructions are in most cases indicated. It is believed that this will do much to promote accuracy, save time, and facilitate labor on the part of the student. A grammar lesson on the chief constructions to be used is pre- fixed to each exercise, and other grammar references are given in the notes and the vocabulary. For those who desire a shorter course, twenty lessons are indi- cated which include all the regular constructions of Verbs and Nouns. The book is designed, however, to furnish material by which the teacher can extend and vary his course according to special aims and needs. Full indexes of the subject-matter and of the syntactical constructions presented are provided. The sen- tences, while avoiding involved and difficult constructions, are yet long enough to admit of some attention to connection, symmetry, and other elements of style. In brief, the special features offered are : (1) A comprehensive scheme of grammatical study ; (2) Variety and unity in the subject-matter of the exercises ; (3) A copious English-Greek vocabulary.

By ALEX EVERETT FRYE, Author of "Fryers Geographies" " Brooks and Brook Basins" " The Child and Nature," etc. Large quarto. Cloth. Retail price, $1.00. THIS Atlas is intended for use as a reference book in the hands of the student and the general reader. It contains 24 full-page political maps, 12 full-page relief maps, and 24 climatic and industrial maps of the United States, with text for the same. There is a complete Index to more than 10,000 places located on the maps and a complete pronouncing vocabulary of the same. It is thought that the pronunciation of these geographical names will supply a long-felt need and prove a most useful feature of the Atlas, helpful alike to the student of geog- raphy, history, and literature, and to the reader of news- papers, magazines, and books of travel. In many schools very few of the pupils in the upper grammar and high school classes have geographies or atlases for use either in school or at home ; yet these older pupils are in almost constant need of reference maps for the prep- aration of lessons in history and literature. Several of the maps in this Atlas were prepared expressly for such use. The products and industries of our country afford a key to much of its history, especially that relating to the settle- ment, the building of railroads, and other highways of trade, sectional differences, tariff, and financial legislation. The many small charts of the United States will therefore be found useful, not only to pupils in school, but also to farmers, mechanics, tradesmen, statesmen, and citizens in general.

GLADSTONE, recently Prime Minister of England. Contains also a Geography of the Ancient World, prepared by WILLIAM F. ALLEN, late Professor of History in the University of Wisconsin. Revised by eminent British and American Scholars. (7^X12 inches.) For intro- duction, boards, $1.25; cloth, $2.00. Completeness, Accuracy, Uniformity, Distinctness, Durability, Beauty, and Cheapness. THIS Atlas consists of twenty-three plates, colored maps, and plans of all the important countries and localities re- ferred to by classical authors. It embodies the results of the most recent investigations. It has a full INDEX OF PLACES, in which the proper quantities of the syllables are marked by T. HARVEY and E. WORSLEY, MM. A. Oxon., Classical Masters in Edinburgh Academy. This Atlas also contains ALLEN'S GEOGRAPHY OF THE ANCIENT WORLD, which is designed to bring the leading epochs and events of ancient history into connection with the geography of the ancient, world. Brief suggestions to teachers are added, to assist in the work of the class-room. Spectator: It has the special attraction of Mr. Gladstone's co- operation, who not only placed at the editor's disposal the illustra- tions to his work on Homer, but enhanced the favor by revising the proof-sheets of the plates and text, as adapted for this Atlas. Tracy Peck, Professor of Latin, Yale University : I have heretofore known the Atlas sufficiently well to feel justified in recommending it to inquiring students. W. W. Goodwin, Professor of Greek, Harvard University : It is a most beautiful and highly useful work, and I am glad to see what used to be an expensive luxury brought within the means of all students of the classics. S. R. Winans, Professor of Greek, College of New Jersey : It is superb : nothing to criticise, and everything to commend. Every student of the classics needs some- thing of the sort, and this is by all odds the best of its kind. QINN & COMPANY, Publishers, Boston. New York. Chicago. Atlanta.

Half leather. 488 pages. For introduction, $1.20. THIS is offered as a thoroughly satisfactory manual for preparatory schools and colleges, and it is believed to combine excellences of di- verse kinds in such a way as to be the closest possible approach to an ideal grammar. First. This has always been regarded as the truest and soundest of Latin grammar manuals. Instead of making arbitrary laws and distinc- tions in order to secure an artificial clearness of statement, this gram- mar has been faithful to the spirit and the facts of the language. This is its fundamental excellence. The grammar explains the language instead of trying to make the language bear out the grammar. Second. The present edition is as strong in class-room availability as it is for linguistic truth. George L. Kittredge, Professor of English at Harvard, was associate reviser, and largely on account of his com- bining special qualifications in Latin and in English, the style of the grammar was radically improved. It is believed to be now much clearer, more crisp and definite, more interesting and learnable, than any other grammar. Third. Even in all the little points, the closest care was taken in the revision, and scarcely a book can be found in which the excellence is so uniform and in which the finish reaches so faithfully to the minutest details. Fourth. In a word, the consensus of competent opinion seems to fully justify the belief that Allen and Greenough's Latin Grammar is clearly the best: best for scholarship, convenience, completeness, and beauty; best for reference ; and best for regular study. Tracy Peck, Professor of Latin in Yale University: The essential facts of the language are stated with great clear- ness, and there is a rich suggestiveness as to the rationale of constructions. William A. Packard, Professor of Latin in Princeton University : I find it essentially improved by the revision and the additions it has received, and regard it as an unsurpassed compendious grammar for use in our schools and colleges.

BY CHARLES MILLS GAYLEY, Professor of the English Language a r .d Literature in the University of California and formerly Assistant-Professor of Latin in the University of Michigan. i2mo. Half leather. 540 pages. For introduction, $1.50. New Edition with 16 full-page illustrations. This work, based chiefly on Bulfinch's "Age of Fable" (1855), has here been adapted to school use and in large part rewritten. It is recommended both as the best manual of mythology and as indispensable to the student of our literature. Special features of this edition are : 1. An introduction on the indebtedness of English poetry to the literature of fable ; and on methods of teaching mythology. 2. An elementary account of myth-making and of the principal poets of mythology, and of the beginnings of the world, of gods and of men among the Greeks. 3. A thorough revision and systematization of Bulfinch's Stories of Gods and Heroes : with additional stories, and with selections from English poems based upon the myths. 4. Illustrative cuts from Baumeister, Roscher, and other standard authorities on mythology. 5. The requisite maps. 6. Certain necessary modifications in Bulfinch's treatment of the mythology of nations other than the Greeks and Romans. 7. Notes, following the text (as in the school editions of Latin and Greek authors), containing an historical and interpretative commentary upon certain myths, supplementary poetical citations, a list of the bette* known allusions to mythological fiction, references to works of art^ and hints to teachers and students. GINN & COMPANY, Publishers, Boston, New York, and Chicago. Elements of Chemistry By RUFUS P. WILLIAMS, Instructor in Chemistry in the English High School, Boston. i2mo. Cloth. 412 pages. For introduction, $1.10. DOZEN years of chemistry teaching in one of the largest schools in the country have resulted in the methods embodied in this book. The work is very much more com- plete than the author's "Introduction to Chemical Science," issued ten years ago. The essential facts, laws, and experi- ments are presented in an attractive as well as an accurate way. Rare elements and unimportant compounds are omitted. The descriptive parts are treated with fullness, and inter- esting matter is added to awaken the zeal of the student. Especial attention is called to the clean-cut and original treatment of the laws and theories of chemistry. Such usually dry subjects as Valence, What Reactions take Place, Laws of Combination, etc., are made entertaining even to a beginner. Theories are so graphically pictured that there is left no vague uncertainty as to their meaning. Accom- panying each element and law is a brief history of it. The work is very fully and carefully illustrated with entirely new designs, embodying many original ideas, and there is a wealth of practical experiments. Exercises and problems follow the discussion of laws and principles. The subject-matter is so divided that the book can be used by advanced schools, or by elementary ones in which the time allotted to chemistry is short. The author's aim may be stated briefly as twofold, to present the truths of the science accurately, and to make the subject fascinating to every student. GINN & COMPANY, PUBLISHERS, Boston. New York.
