PREFACE. 
 
 This work is designed for the use of teachers, schools, fami- 
 lies and literary circles. Its obje<?t is to enable the student to 
 acquire a knowledge of history with less study than is required 
 by the regular text-book method. While the principles of the 
 map are neither new nor original, it has been simplified in details 
 and plan which adapts it to general use. 
 
 The object of the topical method is to give prominence to 
 important names and events, to emphasize and impress upon the 
 memory what is most essential and avoid unnecessary detail. 
 The object of the reference system is the study of a subject from 
 the standpoint of different authors, without the loss of time 
 usually required in searching for references. In the selection of 
 references, care has been taken to give the best authorities 
 usually found in public and private libraries. In the paging of 
 the references errors may be found, and in some cases the refer- 
 ences may not cover the whole subject as lettered, but are given 
 with that object in view. An alphabetical list of books referred 
 to in the work, with the year of their publication and name of 
 publisher, is given in the appendix. References in the work are 
 only expected to correspond to the year of the publication as 
 given in the catalogue. 
 
 The purpose of the map is to hold the threads of history 
 continuous by the aid of the eye without taxing the memory, as 
 illustrated in the study of geography by the aid of maps. The 
 map study in this work is practically the same, the centuries tak- 
 ing the phice of countries, persons and events of history answer- 
 ing to important places in geographical study. The topics and 
 their subdivisions are arranged with a view to the main points of 
 history and their historical sequence, tracing the progress of 
 civilization, through the influence of religion, politics, literature 
 and art; special attention being given to the rise, decline and 
 fall of nations and causes therefor. The system is very elastic 
 and may be condensed or expanded, according to the time at the 
 student's disposal, or a choice of subject, history, art or litera- 
 ture may be pursued. As an outline of chronology the work is 
 valuable as a ready reference. J. H. B.

EXPLANATION OF THE MAP OR CHART AND SUG- 
 GESTIONS FOR STUDYING IT. 
 
 The map represents ten centuries, separated from one 
 another by broad marginal bands. Each century is divided by 
 central bars, merely to assist the eye in locating events and 
 dates. The centuries contain one hundred squares, each square 
 representing one year. Beginning with the lower right hand 
 corner the squares are named 1, 2, 3, etc. Should the century 
 be the tenth, the squares would be numbered 901, 902, 903, 904, 
 905 to the central bar, the last square on the line would be 910. 
 The number of all squares first j)receding the central line will 
 end in five, those next after in six, all at the end of the lines in 
 nought, while all numbers beginning the lines will end in one, 
 as 1, 11, 21, etc. 
 
 The squares, or years, are divided into five sections, each 
 section referring to special events of history, as follows: 
 
 1 refers to wars, invasions, battles and 
 revolutions. 
 
 2 " " sieges, conquests and coloni- 
 zations. 
 
 3 " " laws or edicts. . 
 
 4 " " leagues and treaties. 
 
 5 " " historical personages and mis- 
 cellaneous events. 
 
 Nationalities are symbolized by form and color, as follows: 
 Egypt, a red square. 
 
 Phoenicia, a red triangle. 
 
 Carthage, a red triangle. 
 Syria, a red oblique square. 
 Assyria, a yellow square. 
 Babylonia, a yellow triangle. 
 Kingdom of Pontus, a yellow 
 
 oblique square. 
 Hebrew (Judah), a blue square. 
 
 Hebrew (Israel), a blue triangle. 
 Persia, a green square. 
 Media, a green triangle. 
 Parthia,a green oblique square 
 Kome, a black square. 
 Greece, a black triangle. 
 Macedonia, a black oblique 
 square. 
 
EXPLANATION OF THE MAP OR CHART. xiii 
 
 Historical events are marlved as follows: 
 
 Great national events by national color and form embracing 
 the whole square or year. 
 
 rWars, usually by color and form, indicated by name. 
 
 \ Civil and social wars, by an oblique cross. 
 
 [Battles, usually by colors of victorious army, section 1. 
 
 Conquests, by colors of conquerors, section 2. 
 
 Leagues and treaties, by an oblique cross, section 4. 
 
 Rulers, indicated in center of section 5. 
 
 Two rulers occupying a throne at the same time, by an ob- 
 lique cross. 
 
 Eminent persons, other than rulers, at left of center of sec- 
 tion 5. 
 
 Miscellaneous events, at right of section 5, 
 
 Suggestions. — The map or chart should be hung while 
 studying, instead of folded ; a century should not be isolated, as 
 studying it in relation to its position upon the map helps the eye 
 to retain its location and the relation of its history to the pre- 
 ceding and subsequent century. The rise and fall of nations are 
 also more easily traced by this arrangement. In beginning the 
 study of a century, no attention should be paid to dates or names 
 of the events, but fix in the mind through the eye the characters 
 that first attract the attention, then group together certain other 
 characters, impressing them upon the mind until, by closing the 
 eyes, a mental picture of the lesson can be seen; after which 
 names of events may be learned and thoroughly memorized, let- 
 ting the eye take care of the dates^ by photographing upon the 
 mind their location upon the map. Should the century be the 
 fifth, the marks indicating great national events will strike the 
 eye at once. After these the group of characters in the upper left 
 hand corner, denoting the Persian Wars and eminent persons 
 connected therewith. Toward the last of the century is a sim- 
 ilar group, referring to the closing years of the Peloponnesian 
 War. In like manner, every century, with its most important 
 events, can be made familiar to the eye, which should be able to 
 carry the location of the event and thereby fix the date without 
 taxing the memory. A fair trial will convince teachers and 
 students that this method is unequalled in acquiring and retain- 
 ing a knowledge of history. Should it prove as valuable to oth- 
 ers as to the author, the object of this work will be fully realized.

 SUMMARY. 
 
 The special historical interest attached to this century is the decline of 
 the kingdom of Judah during the latter part of King Solomon's reign, followed, 
 in the beginning of the reign of his successor, by the revolt of the Ten Tribes, 
 the division of the kingdom, and establishment of the kingdoms of Judah and 
 Israel. The rise of Elijah, one of the greatest of the Hebrew prophets, occurs 
 in the latter half, and the closing years of the century records the emergence 
 of the Assyrian Empire from a long period of obscurity.

 SUMMARY. 
 
 The first of this century records, in Jewish history, the close of the long 
 reign of Jeroboam, during which his kingdom rose to a degree of prosperity 
 never previously enjoyed, with a corresponding degeneracy in the moral and 
 religious life of its people. Uzziah reigns in Judah, under whose upright 
 rule the people enjoy both religious and worldly prosperity. The prophets 
 Zecheriah, Amos, Hosea and Isaiah appear in this period. The last part of 
 the century marks the fall of the Northern Kingdom, the destruction of Samaria, 
 and captivity of the Ten Tribes. 
 
 Judah under Ahaz' reign lapses into the grossest idolatry, sanctioned by 
 royal authority. The reign of Hezekiah and the preaching of Isaiah restore the 
 old religion and develop a higher moral tone.

68 HISTORY, LITERATURE AND ART TOPICS. 
 
 The interest pertaining to Assyrian history is the rapid growth by con- 
 quest, increasing wealth and splendor of the empire, the marked ability of its 
 rulers, beginning with Tiglath Pileser II, and closing with the commencement 
 of the brilliant reign of Sennacherib. Another important feature is the be- 
 ginning of authentic history of Greece and Rome, the two nations destined to 
 wield a lasting influence upon the civilization and history of the world.

 SUMMARY. 
 
 The chief characteristics of the history of this century in Judah are, the 
 reigns of Manasseh and Josiah, remarkable by contrast, the former marked by 
 all that is base and wicked in human nature, debases his people to the lowest 
 degradation they had ever known; the latter standing first among all the kings 
 of the line of David for unswerving loyalty to truth and right, his reign is re- 
 corded as one of the noblest in Jewish history. 
 
 Assyrian history records the greater part of the brilliant reign of Senna- 
 cherib, the extension and prosperity of the empire under Esar-haddon and As- 
 shur-bani-pal, the flourishing of the arts, especially architecture and the en- 
 couragement of literature. This period is followed by the decline and fall of the 
 monarchy and the foundation of the Median and Babylonian kingdoms under 
 Cyaxares and Nabopolassar. Egypt becomes free and united under Psammeti- 
 chus. Greece and Rome are yet in their infancy.

 . SUMMARY. 
 
 The sixth century is remarkable in history for its intellectual activity 
 and development as shown in the great advancement of thought and forms of 
 government. The early part of the century records the overthrow of the king- 
 dom of Judah, destruction of Jerusalem and captivity of the Jews under 
 Nebuchadnezzar. Babylon under this monarch reaches the height of her splen- 
 dor and prosperity. 
 
 The conquest of the Median kingdom by Cyrus is followed by the fall 
 of Babylon and the rise of the Persian monarchy, embracing Assyria, Media and 
 Persia proper. Egypt is reduced to a Persian province by Kambyses. 
 
96 HISTORY, LITERATURE AND ART TOPICS. 
 
 Greece makes great advancement in civilization by the establishment of the 
 Solonian laws and encouragement of literature and art. This century marks 
 the rise of Greek philosophy and the beginning of the most brilliant period 
 of Greek poetry, Hellas, Sicily and the islands of Asia Minor all contributing to 
 the national literature. 
 
 Rome under the rule of her kings grows in wealth and power. The 
 latter part of the century Greece and Rome are disturbed by violent political 
 movements resulting in the expulsion of the Pisistratidee from Athens and the 
 Tarquins from Rome. The century closes with the Ionian revolt. From this 
 time forward Greece and Italy occupy the pages of ancient history.

 SUMMARY. 
 
 This century is remarkable in history as being a period of great intel- 
 lectual and political growth. Persia invades and attempts to conquer Greece, 
 which brought about the Persian wars, beginning with the memorable battle 
 of Marathon and ending with the battles of Platsea and Mykalse, resulting in 
 the defeat of the Persians, thereby checking the power of Oriental despotism

 and changing the destiny of Europe. This victory was followed by the most 
 illustrious period in Grecian history, and one of the most brilliant in the history 
 of the world. 
 
 Athens, the center of Greek thought, attains the highest point of great- 
 ness in political growth, unsurpassed literature and matchless art. This de- 
 velopment gave to Athens the supremacy among the Grecian states which 
 created rivalry and hatred, resulting in civil warfare. Athens and Sparta, the 
 leading states of Greece, are politically opposed to each other, Athens being 
 democratic and Sparta aristocratic in tendencies. These opposing principles, 
 democracy and oligarchy culminated in the Peloponnesian war, that lasted 
 twenty-seven years, the result of which was the destruction of the Athenian 
 empire by the Spartan confederacy. 
 
 The history of Rome records the struggle for rights and privileges be- 
 tween the patricians and plebeians, the development of the Roman Constitution.

 SUMMARY. 
 
 The rise and dissolution of the Macedonian empire is the most important 
 movement of this century. The result of the Peloponnesian war at the close of 
 the last century gave Sparta the ruling power, which she retained until the 
 battle of Leuctra, B. C. 371, resulting in the defeat of the Spartans and the 
 establishment of Theban supremacy under Pelopidas and Epaminondas. Thebes 
 as the leading state 'holds her supremacy to the death of Epaminondas at the 
 battle of Mantinse. With the death of Epaminondas, Greece, weakened by in- 
 ternal wars, her moral and military strength on the decline, is no longer able 
 to hold her place as the ruling power. 
 
 Macedon, under Philip, becomes a state of Greece, and finally the leading 
 state. Athens and Sparta form a league to resist him. Their forces are defeated 
 at Chseronea, Greece becoming a province of Macedonia. Philip now begins 
 an aggressive warfare against Persia, which after his death is carried on by his 
 son and successor, Alexander the Great, who invades Persia, gaining brilliant 
 victories at Granikus and at Issus, reduces Tyre and Egypt, founds the city 
 of Alexandria, marches into Assyria, defeats Darius at the decisive battle of 
 Arbela, resulting in the complete overthrow of the Persian Empire. 
 
 After Alexander's death, B. C. 323, a struggle for power ensues among 
 his principal generals, ending B. C. 301 in the battle of Ipsus and the division 
 of the Empire into the kingdoms of Egypt under Ptolemy, Syria and the East 
 under Seleukus, Macedonia (including Greece) under Kassander, and Thrace, 
 with the greater part of Asia Minor under Lysimachus. 
 
 While the moral, political and military character of the Greeks is most 
 degraded, their intellectual energy in the realms of science and philosophy con- 
 tinue to flourish. Plato gives to the world his belief in the immortality of the 
 soul in a style of prose of wondrous beauty and elegance. Aristotle, whose 
 writings are destined more than any others of antiquity to influence the thought 
 of subsequent ages, formulates his system of deductive reasoning. This is 
 also a brilliant period in Greek oratory that reaches its greatest. perfection in 
 the eloquence of Demosthenes and ^-Eschines. 
 
 In plastic art decided changes are noted. The grand conceptions and im- 
 pressive repose of the Pheidian period give place to art that reflects the more 
 intense and emotional character of the time, producing a spirited and lifelike 
 effect. 
 
 Rome about B. C. 390 is taken and destroyed by the Gauls, the first 
 appearance of these barbarians, who are destined, in later times, to play an 
 important part in the history and civilization of the world. A reconciliation 
 of the two orders is brought about; the Plebeians by the Licinean laws obtain 
 equal rights with the Patrician, the two orders becoming united. From this 
 era Rome begins her career of conquest, commencing with the Samnite and 
 Latin wars, the result of which was the conquest of Latium' and Campania and 
 victory over the Samnites, giving to Rome the supremacy of Southern Italy 
 after a war of twenty-two years.

 SUMMARY. 
 
 The general interest in the history of this century centers in Rome, Carth- 
 age and Egypt. B. C. 266, Rome completes the conquest of Italy, which began 
 with the Samnite Wars, followed by a war with Pyrrhus, king of Epirus. Her 
 career of foreign conquest begins by an attack in Sicily upon the Carthaginians 
 and the outbreak of the First Punic War, the result of which is the annexation 
 of Sicily, Sardinia and Corsica to her territory. In addition the Gauls in North- 
 ern Italy are subdued and Roman colonies founded. 
 
 Between the First and Second Punic Wars Carthage establishes her empire 
 in Spain, enabling her to renew the war. Hannibal, being placed in command, 
 assumes the aggressive by laying siege to Saguntum, a Roman allied town, 
 which leads to the outbreak of the Second Punic War, B. C. 218. Hannibal in- 
 vades Italy by way of the Alps, is victorious in several battles, the most 
 memorable being that of Cannae, resulting in the almost total destruction of 
 the Roman army. 
 
 The capture of Capua by the Romans, B. C. 211, marks the turning point 
 of the war. The Roman victory at the battle of the Metaurus, B. C. 207, brings 
 the 'war to an end in Italy. Hannibal being recalled to Africa to defend Carth- 
 age against Scipio is defeated at Zama, B. C. 202, which closes the war, resulting 
 in Carthage giving up her possessions outside of Africa and being degraded to 
 a dependent ally of Rome. 
 
 Macedon, under Philip V., is brought into collision with Rome by the out- 
 break of the First Macedonian War, which was barren of results. In Greece, 
 the Acheean and ^tolian Leagues make a heroic struggle against Macedon for 
 freedom and political independence. 
 
 Syria suffers the loss of Parthia by revolt, but adds the kingdoms of 
 
 Thrace and Asia Minor to her territory. Egypt, under the Ptolomies, through 
 
 her commerce and navigation, becomes prosperous and powerful. Alexandria, 
 
 her capital, is the chief commercial city of the world, and the Hellenic center

 HISTORY, LITERATURE AND ART TOPICS. 
 
 of learning and literary culture. The era is marked by a brilliant develop- 
 ment in religious and speculative thought and scientific investigation. 
 
 Rhodes becomes prominent in the intellectua-1 world and famous for its 
 school of art. Its two masterpieces, the Laocoon and the Farnese Bull, are 
 products of this century. Pergamus also becomes celebrated as an art center 
 under the reign of King Attains I. 
 
 About the middle of this century, Roman literature begins, the first author 
 being Livius Andronicus.

 SUMMARY, 
 The history of this century is largely the record of Roman conquest and 
 power. The Second and Third Macedonian Wars result in Macedonia becoming 
 tributary to Rome, and later, B. C. 146, being reduced to a Roman province. 
 Greece, as the result of the Achaean War, becomes a province of Rome under 
 the name of Achaea. The Third Punic War closes with the complete destruction 
 of Carthage, and that territory becoming a Roman province of Africa. The con- 
 quest of Cisalpine Gaul is completed; the cor quest of Transalpine Gaul is begun. 
 
178 HISTORY, LITERATURE AND ART TOPICS. 
 
 and nearly all of Spain made a province, which gives Rome the position of the 
 gi'eatest power of the world. 
 
 The last half of the century is marked by the beginning of civil strife 
 caused by the rule of the nobles, slave labor and the poverty and oppression of 
 the plebeian class. Tiberius and Caius Gracchus attempt to remedy these 
 evils, both of whom fall victims of the aristocracy. The Jugurthan War 
 follows under the generalship of Marius, terminating, B. C. 106, with the defeat 
 and capture of Jugurtha. Marius defeats the Teutones at the battle of Aquae 
 Sextiae, in Gaul, B. C. 102, and the Kimbri at the battle of Vercellae, B. C. 101. 
 
 In the literary world, Alexandria continues a center of learning and culture. 
 Roman literature advances, based upon Hellenic models. Greek genius and liter- 
 ature, after the subjugation of Greece, rapidly declines, and is gradually drawn 
 to Rome, which is fast becoming the rival of Alexandria and the mistress of the 
 world. Greek plastic art is also transplanted to Rome, and begins a new era in 
 art, called the Grseco-Roman period. 
 
 During this century, a heroic period in Jewish history begins under the 
 leadership of the Maccabees. Judas Maccabseus wins a great victory over Anti- 
 ochus, the Syrian king, about B. C. 166, which gives partial independence to the 
 Jews; later, under John Hyrcanus, their complete independence is established, 
 his son taking the title of king on ascending the throne, the first to assume that 
 dignity since the Babylonian captivity.

 SUMMARY. 
 
 The history of this century pertains almost wholly to Rome. The first 
 important movement is the Social War, resulting in the franchise being granted 
 to the Italians. This is followed by the Mithradatic and the Civil War between 
 Marius and Sulla and their bloody proscriptions. The First Mithradatic War 
 is brought' to a close by the Roman victories under Sulla at Chseronea and 
 Orchomenes. Sulla returns to Rome, reforms the constitution concentrating 
 all the power in the hands of the senate, and in B. C. 79 abdicates. 
 
 Pompeius rises to prominence through the wars in Spain with Sertorius 
 and the Gladiatorial War. Later he subdues the Mediterranean pirates, con- 
 quers Asia Minor, Syria and Palestine and reorganizes Asia. After his return 
 to Rome the senate refused to confirm his acts in the East or grant land to 
 his soldiers; this compelled him to accept overtures from Csesar which resulted 
 In the First Triumvirate. 
 
 Caesar in eight years conquers and reduces Gaul to a Roman province. 
 Pompey during Caesar's absence becomes sole consul, induces the senate to recall 
 Csesar to order him to disband his army and give up his pi'ovince. Caesar re- 
 bels, civil war ensues, resulting in the overthrow of Pompey at Pharsalia and the 
 defeat of his forces at Thapsus, leaving Csesar master of the Roman world. A 
 conspiracy is soon after formed against him by Brutus, Cassius and others, by 
 whom he is assassinated B. C. 44. 
 
 After his death Octavius, Antonius and Lepidus form a Second Trium- 
 virate. Octavius leads his forces against Brutus and Cassius, defeating them 
 at Philippi. After the battle a division of the empire is made, Antonius takes 
 the East, Octavius the West and Lepidus the province of Africa; Lepidus is 
 afterwards expelled from the Triumvirate. Octavius and Antonius quarrel, war 
 is declared, the battle of Actium follows, with the defeat of Antonius, who 
 prolongs the contest for nearly a year, when his death leaves Octavius in full 
 power, who assumes the title of Augustus Csesar. The Roman republic is now 
 virtually changed to a monarchy, with Augustus as emperor, who governs it 
 under republican forms, uniting in himself the dignities of consul, tribune, im- 
 perator, and Pontifix Maximus. 
 
 The Roman dominions now include all the countries about the Mediter- 
 ranean Sea, Parthia being the only power holding the position of a formidable 
 rival. 
 
 While Roman power and territory has been extending Roman literature 
 passes through two periods of development, each reflecting the spirit of the age. 
 The first or Ciceronian period is one of great excellence, in which historical 
 and political composition predominate. The Roman mind is largely under Greek 
 influence, men of letters availing themselves of the rich literary spoils brought 
 to Rome after the conquest of Greece, and to its influence is due the rapid 
 advancement in the literature of the period. Owing to the tendencies in lit- 
 erature and the great political excitement of the age oratory increases in 
 importance and reaches its climax. Poetry holds a subordinate position, although 
 the later writings of this era are marked by greater proficiency in style and 
 perfection in form.

 HISTORY, LITERATURE AND ART TOPICS. 
 
 The second period, called the Augustan Age of Roman literature, marks a 
 new era in Roman history by the change of the republic to a monarchy, the 
 decay of old and the formation of new institutions. A corresponding change in 
 literature is noticeable; public life free from great political excitement, ora- 
 tory and political literature, that became a power under the republic dies out. 
 Historical literature attains a high perfection in the writings of Livy, one of the 
 greatest historical writers the world has ever known. With the extinction of 
 public political life attention is given to the development of poetry and erudition. 
 Poetry, now studied as an art, fostered and nurtured by imperial favor, reaches 
 its highest point of artistic perfection in the writings of Virgil, Horace and Ovid. 
 
 Architecture assumes a magnitude and splendor displaying princely 
 ostentation and attains its culminating glory in this period. B. C. 4 records 
 the greatest and most important event in the world's history, the birth of Jesus 
 Christ.
