Excerpt from The Four Civilizations of the World: An Historical Retrospect This volume was not meant as a mere epitome of historical facts. Its chief aim was to trace the rise of what is usually denominated Modern Civilization; or, as I have called it, the Fourth Civilization. Both these terms have reference to what is familiarly known as the popular or democratic element. Before seeking to indicate its first appearance in the world, I thought it judicious to glance cursorily at the earlier civilizations in Asia, Africa, and Europe, in order to show that under their sway mankind was divided into two classes, the upper and the lower, and that to the former was assigned the privilege of government, whilst on the latter was enjoined the duty of obedience. In none of these anterior civilizations can be traced any vestige of the popular element. In common with many profound thinkers, I date its origin to the doctrines of the Christian religion. Certain it is that as Christianity spread, the masses awoke from the lethargy of ages. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Four Civilizations of the World: An Historical Retrospect The first civilization on record is that of Hindostan, more familiarly known as India. Its origin is wrapped in fable, but the first dynasty may be traced to 3200 years before Christ. The date of the sacred books entitled the Vedas is put down at fifteen centuries before the same period. The Institutes of Menu, a compilation of moral and political laws, are said to have appeared some twelve centuries before the Chris tian era.

Taureans, ever wondered what the Sun-signs tell you about love and life? This unique anthology of poems for love and life relates directly to your Sun-sign, Taurus. If you were born between the 21st of April and the 21st of May, you will relate to many of the themes identified with your sign's characteristics and personality traits. The poems in this collection have been chosen because they reflect a Taurean attitude to life. They appeal to the interests 'ruled' by your sign; the animals, flowers, trees, plants and places celebrated by the poets and associated with the sign of Taurus over three thousand years of traditional astrology. Some have been chosen simply because we believe you will enjoy them, and that they will awaken or re-awaken your love of poetry.
