About this book
James Bryce, named on the title page as a fellow of Oriel College and professor of civil law at Oxford, wrote this study of the Holy Roman Empire, given here in the revised third edition of 1871. His stated aim is to describe the Empire as an institution, the product of a system of beliefs and traditions now largely vanished, rather than to retell the history of every country in it.
The story still runs in order: the Roman Empire in the second century, the barbarian invasions, the crowning of Charles the Great, the age of Otto, and German and Italian affairs after. A chronological list of emperors and popes is prefixed.
