First of four weekly talks by different speakers
A. H. M. JONES
Professor of Ancient History tn the University of Cambridge corrects the popular notion that the Empire declined principally from internal weakness. It was exhausted by the pressure of external enemies and the necessity to maintain a great army of defence which its primitive ecoromy and primitive technology were unable to sustain. But whereas the West was broken, the Eastern Empire survived.
