Beskrivelse af Extracts From Alfred's Orosius (1885)
Extracts From Alfred�������s Orosius (1885) is a book written by Henry Sweet that contains selected passages from the Old English translation of the ancient Roman historian Paulus Orosius' ""Historiarum Adversum Paganos Libri VII"" (Seven Books of History Against the Pagans). The translation was done by King Alfred the Great in the 9th century, and Sweet's book provides a glimpse into the Anglo-Saxon king's literary and linguistic abilities. The book includes an introduction that provides historical context and analysis of the translation, as well as notes and glossaries to aid in understanding the Old English text. The passages selected cover a range of topics, including the history of Rome, the spread of Christianity, and the rise of Islam. The book is a valuable resource for scholars of Old English literature and history, as well as those interested in the intellectual and cultural achievements of the Anglo-Saxon period.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
