Excerpt from The Emperor Hadrian

This translation of Gregorovius' Life of Hadrian has been written in the hope that it may prove useful to the students of this period of Roman history.

In publishing it I have to express my obligations to Professor Pelham for his valuable introduction; to Mr. Herbert Fisher, Fellow of New College, Oxford, who kindly looked through my manuscript, and to whose encouragement the work is due; and to Mr. Martin Trietschel, who has rendered me great assistance, especially with the notes and index.
