PUBLISHED BY THE DEPARTMENT OF HISTORY OF THE UNIVERSITY OF PENNSYLVANIA. Philadelphia, Pa., 1Q05. Sold by: Longmans, Green & Co., 91-93 Fifth Avenue, New.York. X) //? If OS" PREFACE. This syllabus is divided into subjects, not lectures. Often a single subject, as the migrations, may require more than one lecture. Other subjects may be passed over briefly in less than a lecture, or omitted entirely. In the latter case the students may be assigned reading to cover the omission. In the bibliographies only authorities in English, with two or three exceptions, are given. But in every case it is believed that the books quoted furnish sufficient bibliographical notes to enable the student to find out the best works in foreign lan- guages. The number of books mentioned has been kept down to the lowest possible limit without omitting works which are essential ; but at the request of others who use this syllabus some titles have been added to the original list. Some books of which the value has been lessened by more recent works are quoted either because of their accessibility or fame. Some other works, although valuable throughout the course, are named only for special topics; e. g. Gregorovius: Hutory of the Oity of Rome. Of the sources only a few are mentioned and only those which can be used by undergraduate students. By those who read French Langlois' Lectures Historiques will be found especially useful. The same students will find Zeller's Histoire de France racontee par les Contemporains of value in connection with this course. Both are published by Hachette, Paris. The best small atlas is Putzger: Historischer Schul- Atlas, with a German-English glossary, Lemcke and Buechner. Of the larger atlases Droysen : Allgemeiner Historischer Handatlas, Velhagen and Klasing, orScrader: Atlas de Geographie Historique, Hachette, or Poole: Oxford Historical Atlas, are the most valuable. A fuller list can be found in the Report of the Committee of Seven, Mac- millan.* *Holt announces a new atlas, edited by Professor Dow of the University of Michigan. (Ill) /V PREFACE. It is hard to make a choice among the church histories be- cause they are so often biased by the theological views of the authors. Moeller's (3 vols., Macmillan) is dry, but useful. Gieseler's (various editions), although old, is excellent because of the quantity and quality of source material quoted. Alzog's (3 vols., Clark) is the best from the Roman Catholic standpoint. Schaff's (6 vols., Scribner) is scholarly and will be preferred by many. Fisher's (1 vol., Scribner) is a convenient summary. There are others which deserve mention, but each instructor is sure to have his own preferences. For the proper names the usual form is given except where there is some especial reason for preferring another spelling. There has been no attempt to attain uniformity. It would be impossible without a palaeographic purism which obscures familiar names and events, and certainly has no place in under- graduate work. The extracts from the sources are printed here because these particular bits do not seem to fit into any of the existing series. In the preparation of this syllabus I have been much aided by the excellent syllabi of Professor Burr of Cornell and Professor Dow of Michigan. Professor Haskins of Harvard, Professor Robinson of Columbia, Professor Cheyney of Pennsyl- vania, Professor Whitcomb of Cincinnati, and Professor Sellery of "Wisconsin, have all given valuable assistance, for which I wish to express my thanks. Of my indebtedness to other men and books I am very conscious, but it is impossible to mention or even recall the books which I have laid under contribution in several years of teaching.

(Translated by Dr. A. C. Howland.) About a fortnight before the capture of these men, ' wliile I was living in the city of Rheims deeply engaged in the study of the liberal arts and anxious to master the logic of Hippocrates of Chos, I happened one day upon a horseman from Chartres. When I had questioned him as to who he was and in whose service, and why and whence he had come here, he replied that he was a messenger of Heribrand, clerk of Chartres, and that he wished to have speech with one Richer, a Monk of St. Remi. Recognizing at once the name of a friend and under- standing the occasion of his embas.sy I made known to him that I was the person he sought, and giving him a kiss, I drew him secretly to one side. He immediately produced his letter, which proved to be an invitation from Heribrand to came mid read the Aphorisms with him. I was greatly rejoiced at the prospect, and having engaged a certain lad to go with me, I made my dispositions to take the road to Chartres in company with the horseman. When I set out, however, the only assist- ance I received from my abbot was a palfrey. So, without money, without even a change of clothing or any other necessar- ies, I came to Orbais, a place renowned for its great hospitality. There I was refreshed by the conversation of the Lord Abbot D., as well as entertained through his liberality, and on the follow- ing day resumed the journey that was to take me as far as Meaux. But, having entered the shadows of a forest, misfor- tune overtook me and my two companions. For taking the wrong turning at the crossroads we wandered out of our way si.K leagues. Then when we were a little beyond ChTiteau-Thierry, the palfrey that had previously seemed a very Bucephalus, began to lag behind like an ass. The sun had already passed the meridian, the sky had clouded up and the rain was on the point of falling in torrents, when as luck would have it, that Bucephalus succumbed to his mighty efforts, when we were still six miles from our city, and sinking beneath the limbs of the lad who was riding him fell to the ground as though he had been struck by lightning and there died. How great our dismay and anxiety then were, those can appreciate who have ever experi- ' Arnulf, archbisliop of Rlieims, and Charles of Lorraine. The dale re- ferred to is about March 15, 991. (74) enced similar accidents or had like trouble. The boy, unused to the difficulties of such a journey and having now lost liis horse, threw himself on the ground thoroughly used up. There was our baggage without any means of conveyance. The rain was pouring down in sheets. The sky was black with clouds. The sun now about to set threatened us with darkness. As I was hesitating amid all these difficulties, good council was not withheld by God. For I left the boy on the spot with the baggage, and having told him w^hat he should answer to passers-by if questioned and warned him to resist any desire to fall asleep, I set out accompanied only by the horseman from Chartres and came to Meaux. When I reached the bridge it was scarcely light enough to see. Carefully examining the structure, I was once more overwhelmed with new misfortunes. For it had so many holes and such great gaps in it that the citizens of the town could scarceh' cross it even, by daylight in the course of their necessary business. But my quick-witted guide, who was pretty well experienced in traveling, searched about on every side for a skiff. Finding none, he came back to the dangerous task of trying to cross over the bridge. With the aid of heaven he managed to get the horses over safeh'. Where there were holes he would sometimes lay his shield down for the horses to step on, sometimes place boards across that were lying around, and now bending over, now standing up, first running ahead, then coming back, he finally got safely across with me and the horses. Night had fallen and covered the earth in darkness when at length I entered the cloister of St. Pharo, where the brothers were just preparing the love-drink. On this particular day, after the reading of the chapter by the steward of the monastery, they had had a solemn feast, which was the cause of the drink being prepared at so late an hour. I was received by them as a brother and refreshed by their pleasant conversa- tion and what food I wanted. I sent back the man of Chartres with the horses to brave once more the dangers of the bridge we had just passed, in order to get the boy who had been left behind. With the same skill as before he crossed over. He found the lad with some difficulty, during the second watch of the night, after wandering about and shouting for him fre- quently. When he had taken him up and returned to the city he turned aside with him and the horses and sought the hut of a certain peasant, fearing to attempt the bridge whose perils he had learned by experience. And there they found rest for the night but no food, though they had been the whole day without eating. What a sleepless night I passed and with how great (75) anxiety I was tortured can be imagined by any one whose love ever compelled him to keep watch for some dear one. But hardly had the day broken when they put in their appearance nearly famished with hunger. They were given something to eat while grain and straw were placed before the horses. The boy being now without a horse, I left him behind with the Abbot Augustus and pushed on rapidly to Chartres accompanied by the messenger alone. On reaching there I sent the horses back at once to Meaux to fetch the boy. When all cause for apprehension had been removed by his arrival I entered dili- gently into the study of the Aphorisms of Hippocrates with my master Heribrand, a man of much culture and learning. But in this work I learned only the ordinary symptoms of diseases, and such a knowledge of ailments not being sufficient for my desires, I begged him to read with me the book on the concord of Hippocrates, Galen and Suranus. He granted my request, for he was a very skillful man in his art and well acquainted with pharmaceutics, botany and surgery. LETTER OF HENRY IV TO GREGORY VII. 1073. (Probably between October 12 and November 15.) Jaff'e: Bibl. Ber. 6?er., Vol. II, p. 46. Latin. To the most watchful and best beloved lord Pope Gregory endowed from Heaven with the apostolic dignity, Henry by the grace of God King of the Romans renders most faithfully due submission. Since the Kingship and Priesthood when they are rightly ad- ministered in Christ need always his delegated strength, it is certainly fitting, my lord and most loving father, that there should be no dissension whatever between them, but rather that they should cling closely to one another being joined indis- solubly by the bond of Christ. For thus and not otherwise is preserved in the bond of perfect charity and peace both the harmony of Christian unity and the prosperity of the catholic Church. But we, who, by the will of God, have been for some time governing in the kingdom, have not, as was fitting, shown due honor and justice to the Priesthood. It is true we have not in vain borne the sword given to us by God to maintain our power, and yet when we have unsheathed it, it has not always (76) been against those sentenced judicially as criminals, as was just. Now, however, somewhat pricked by the divine mercy and re- turned to ourselves, we confess our former sins to your most indulgent fatherhood which accuses us; we hope from you in the Lord that absolved by your apostolic authority we may obtain pardon. Alas! sinful and in misery, partly owing to the impulse of youthful temptation, partly owing to the freedom of our unre- strained and mighty power, partly also owing to the seductive deception of those whose plans we, too easily led, have followed, we have sinned against Heaven and in your sight and are no more worthy to be called your son. For not only have we seized ecclesiastical propert}^ but also we have sold the churches themselves to unworthy men, although infected with the poison of simony and entering not by peace but otherwise, and we have not defended them as we ought. And now, because W'e alone without your aid are not able to reform the churches, concern- ing these as moreover concerning all our affairs, we earnestly seek at the same time both your aid and advice; we being most desirous to obey your commands in everything. And now in especial concerning the church at Milan, which is through our fault in error, we ask that it may be reformed by your apostolic chastisement, according to the canons; and that your authorita- tive judgment may proceed thence to correct the others. We then, by God's will, will not fail you in anything; asking this humbly of your fatherly kindness that it may mercifully be swift to aid us in all things. After no long time you will receive our letters by the hands of our most humble servants, from whom you will learn more fully, God granting it, what still remains to be said by us.
