　　Edward Gibbon's Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire

compresses thirteen turbulent centuries into an epic narrative shot

through with insight, irony and incisive character analysis.

Sceptical about Christianity, sympathetic to the barbarian invaders

and the Byzantine Empire, constantly aware of how political leaders

often achieve the exact opposite of what they intend, Gibbon was

both alert to the broad pattern of events and significant revealing

details.

　　Edward Gibbon (1737-1794), English historian. It was on a

visit to Rome that he conceived the idea of his magnificent and

panoramic history The History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman

Empire (6 vol., 1776--88) which won immediate acclaim, despite some

harsh criticism. Gibbon himself was assured of the greatness of his

work, which is, indeed, one of the most-read historical works of

modern times.
