Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire Vol. 2
by Edward Gibbon
This is the 2nd volume of the "Chronicles of the Fall and Fall of the Roman Empire", written by the English historian Edward Gibbon and published in six volumes after Marcus Aurelius, covering the period of the Roman Empire from 180 to 1453 and ending in 1590. They materialize the behaviors and decisions that led to the collapse and possible collapse of the Roman Empire in the East and West, and offer an explanation for why the Roman Empire fell. This work acts as a great literary achievement of the 18th century, as it is considered a model for the methodologies of modern historians. This led to Gibbon being called the first modern historian of ancient Rome. (source: Wikipedia)
