To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
His plan was to trace the process of this phase of development until it assumed its catastrophic shape in the assembly of the States General of France in 1789. Whether designed or not, this was the scope and purpose of his task if properly subordinated to any general scheme in the philosophy of his- tory. His first chapter begins with this well-remembered sentence — *' I purpose to write the history of England from the accession of King James the Second down to a time which is within the memory... of men still living " ; in other words, he purposed to tell England's story during a little more than a century, or from 1685 to 1789, for he could hardly have written the words I have quoted later than 1845. This period could be considered and treated either as a monograph contribution to a general scheme, or as a complete history in itself. Following the classic precedents, as well as Ae ex- ample of the great English historical triumvirate, Macaulay proceeded to treat it as a complete history in itself ; and from the very necessities of the case, it resulted in neither a gen- eral history complete in itself nor in a monograph, but in a fragment, a superb historical torso.
