FOREWORD CONTENTS The classical tradition permeates every fiber of our modern civilization and culture. We owe much of our heritage of the past to the Romans, who not only continued but also greatly enhanced the contributions of the Greeks in shaping this tradition. Through the earnest endeavors of this illustrious race, the cornerstones of the literary, artistic, and legal phases of our modern civilization were laid. Throughout the ages the immortal verses of Vergil, the profound oratory of Cicero, the charming metrics of Horace, and the philosophy of Aurelius have served to enlighten and inflame the literary geniuses of various races. Dante, Marlowe, Shakespeare, Milton, and Ronsard attest to the lasting qualities of the works of their Roman predecessors. Many other fields besides literature have been touched by classical influence. After hundreds of years of progress we still find traces of Roman architecture in our modern buildings. We are also indebted to the Romans for the Latin language, from which over half of our English words have been derived. Latin is used extensively in scientific terms, mottoes, and quotations. Roman law and government have colored and molded our civilization perhaps more than any other single factor. We can hardly think or move without touching upon one of the innumerable contributions of the Romans. Without their classical influence our life today would be very different and certainly less interesting.
