INTRODUCTION TO THE STUDY OF HISTORY

  1. [187] See P. Guiraud, Fustel de Coulanges (Paris, 1896, 12mo), p. 164, for some very judicious observations on this subject.
  2. [188] The classification of M. Lacombe (De l'histoire considérée comme science, chap. vi.), founded on the motives of actions and the wants they are intended to satisfy, is very judicious from the philosophical point of view, but does not meet the practical needs of historians; it rests on abstract psychological categories (economic, reproductive, sympathetic, ambitious, &c.), and ends by classing together very different species of phenomena (military institutions along with economics).
  3. [189] Ecclesiastical institutions form part of the government; in German manuals of antiquities they are found among institutions, while religion is classed with the arts.
  4. [190] Modes of transport, which are often put under commerce, form a species of industry.
  5. [191] Property is an institution of mixed character, being at once economic, social, and political.
  6. [192] For the history and biography of this movement see Bernheim, Lehrbuch, pp. 45-55.
