Excerpt from The Life of the Greeks and Romans: Described From Antique Monuments IN order to make the present volume more acceptable to the English reader, the letter-press has been considerably shortened, partly by means of condensation, such as the more concise char acter of our language, in comparison with the German, permits of, partly by the occasional omission of details which seemed to lie somewhat beyond the scope of the work. Nothing of impor tance, however, has been left out, and it is Excerpt from The Life of the Greeks and Romans: Described From Antique Monuments IN order to make the present volume more acceptable to the English reader, the letter-press has been considerably shortened, partly by means of condensation, such as the more concise char acter of our language, in comparison with the German, permits of, partly by the occasional omission of details which seemed to lie somewhat beyond the scope of the work. Nothing of impor tance, however, has been left out, and it is hoped that this English version will fulfill, no less perfectly than the original, the task of rendering a comprehensive account of the life and manners of the two great antique nations, founded on the latest results of modern research, and illustrated by the careful reproduction of Greek and Roman monuments. It ought to be added that after the decease of one of the authors - Professor E. Guhl, in 1862 Professor W. Koner, of the University Library, Berlin, has brought out two revised and considerably augmented editions of their common work.

The authors begin their exploration of the past with the most powerful cultural expressions that the Greeks and Romans have left us--their architectural achievements. The book is divided into two equally detailed parts, one for Greece and one for Rome. Each examines the architecture, function and construction of both private and public buildings. The information on which the authors have based their account has been gathered from classical historians and poets, from the lively scenes shown in vase-painting and bas-reliefs,from the ruins of Pompeii--in short from everything that reveals the customs and practices of the ancient world. To illustrate their work, Guhl and Koner assembled a vast collection of 543 woodcuts from a wide variety of authoritative sources: museums, histories of art, books and journals on archaeology. These depict every facet of Greek and Roman life, wehteher it be the architectural ground-plans for one of the oldest Greek temples on Mount Ocha or an assortment of Roman cooking utensils. Thoroughly researched and carefully subdivided for easy reference, Everyday Life of the Greeks and Romans is both instructive and entertaining.
