Excerpt from Specimens of Roman Literature: Passages Illustrative of Roman Thought and Style To readers of this class the Editors trust the present volume may prove a really valuable aid the bringing together of different and often con icting views, will show the limits within which Roman opinion varied. The chronological arrangement was adopted in Part II. For obvious reasons, but abandoned in Part I., chie y from the consideration that, there having been no regular unfolding or orderly development of thought in Rome (such as was the case, for example, in Greece), any attempt to tabulate, on a chrono logical basis, the opinions held on a given subject, would be delusive. The present arrangement, involving, as it does, two principles, labours under the disadvantage of being somewhat unsymmetrical, but it is hoped that the practical advantage thus gained will outweigh the aesthetic deficiency.
