    The Prophet Mohammed and the Islamic Conquest

    by A.A. Bevan, C.H. Becker ...
    OUR knowledge of Mahomet, his life and his teaching, is derived entirely from documents which have been handed down by Muslims; no contemporary non-Muslim account is extant, and the testimony of later non-Muslim writers has as little claim to consideration as the statements in the Talmud concerning Christ. Among our authorities the Koran, for obvious reasons, occupies the foremost place. The ... Read more

    by C. H. Becker ...

    Learning and Literature in the Early Middle Ages

    by Louis Halphen, Paul Vinogradoff, W.R. Lethaby, Montague James ...
    The alluring dream of Charles the Great has vanished; after his death no temporal prince was found capable of carrying on his work, and it fell to ruins. Nevertheless, the root idea which had inspired him still persisted: the idea of the unity of the Christian world, bound together and grouped round a single head, ready to give battle to the infidel, and to undertake the conversion of the ...

    The Barbarian Invasions of the Western Roman Empire

    by Norman Baynes, Martin Bang, M. Manitius, Ludwig Schmidt, Christian Pfister, T. Peisker ...
    THE race which played the leading part in history after the break-up of the Roman Empire was the race known as the Teutons. Their early history is shrouded in obscurity, an obscurity which only begins to be lightened about the end of the second century of our era. Such information as we have we owe to Greeks and Romans; and what they give us is almost exclusively contemporary history, and the few ... Read more

    The Viking Invasions, the Kingdom of England, and the Western Caliphate

    by Allen Mawer, Rafael Altamira, William Corbett ...

    THE eighth century had hardly entered on its second half when the last of the long-haired Merovingians was thrust from the throne of the Franks, and Pepin the mayor of the palace hailed as king. The change seemed slight, for the new dynasty had served a long apprenticeship. For more than a century the descendants of Clovis had been mere puppets in a king's seat, while the descendants of St Arnulf, ... Read more
