Syllabus of Continental European History From the Fall of Rome to 1870 (Classic Reprint) by Oliver Huntington Richardson PDF Summary

Book Description: Excerpt from Syllabus of Continental European History From the Fall of Rome to 1870 This Syllabus has been prepared primarily for the use of Freshmen and Sophomores in Yale University in a course intended to afford a general survey of the political, economic, and social development of the European peoples from the fourth to the last quarter of the nineteenth century. Instruction is given by a combination of informal lectures, quizzes, and written tests on required readings. The following features of the Syllabus have been determined by the introductory nature of the course in which it is employed and its relation to more advanced courses. It deals with the history of the European continent alone. The perspective has been so constructed as to present the mediaeval period with greatest fulness, the modern with less, and the recent with least. A few topics, chiefly of an institutional character (as Feudalism, Syllabus XVIII; Capetian France, Syllabus XXIX), have been intentionally developed with such detail that the Syllabus itself furnishes sufficient information for the needs of the class - investigation being reserved for advanced courses. Each number of the Syllabus is complete in itself, and experience has shown that, as a rule, it is adapted to one class-room exercise. Variations, however, occur, and the individual instructor suits his convenience. The student is expected to cover the whole ground of each outline (see Syllabus I, B, i), but the instructors, in practice, omit or emphasize such points as they see fit and do not adhere to the outline with rigidity. The bibliographies have been selected to meet the requirements of a class containing three or four hundred students. The following order and principle of construction has been usually applied: required readings, contemporary material of an illustrative or documentary nature, geographical references, further readings advancing from books of comparative simplicity to those of greater difficulty, standard excellence, and highest authority. References, systematically paged, have been given to a large number of text-books, so that any teacher who uses the Syllabus may, if he chooses, disregard the Required d104s mentioned in Syllabus I, B, 2, and base his work upon texts of his own selection. A table of abbreviations in constant use throughout the Syllabus will be found upon the following sheet; all other abbreviations are self-explanatory, and full titles will be found in the Alphabetical List of Books at the end.
