Beginnings of New England lecture on the Roman and English ideas
Mr John Fiske opened a series at the Old South Meeting House with The Roman Idea and the English Idea arguing that since 1806 the world has grown more English and less Roman. He traced Teutonic Britain conquest and the rise of representative institutions noting the 1265 first Commons. The talk linked Norman conquest, the barons war, and the medieval empire to modern nation making and feudal collapse. He cited kings defying the Pope and noble confiscations as examples.
