The History of the Jews from the Earliest Period Down to Modern Times, Vol. 1 of 3 (Classic Reprint)

Description:Excerpt from The History of the Jews From the Earliest Period Down to Modern Times, Vol. 1 of 3 I have been requested, I may say urged, to publish a new edition of this work, which appeared upwards of thirty years ago. I am naturally anxious that a book which has, it may seem, lived so long and maintained some place, however humble, in the literature of the country, should be offered in a form less unworthy of the favour which it has found with many readers. The inherent, I fear irremediable, defect of the work belongs to its original aim and object. It was composed on a limited scale and in a popular form. The limitation of its extent entirely precluded (and this is usually fatal to such works) all citation of authorities. Fr DEGREESm the want of such authorities, the writer incurs at on e the charge of presumption and the danger of originality: the charge of presumption as claiming for his own, thoughts common to many others; the danger of startling men's minds on subjects, about which they are peculiarly sensitive, with views which may seem new, but which have long been maintained by accredited authors. All history, to be popular, ought to flow on in one continuous, unbroken current. A succession of historical disquisitions may be of the highest value, but they are not history.
