Dr. Theodor Mommsen's extensive research into the languages, laws, and institutions of ancient Rome and Italy has garnered significant recognition among scholars. Although it may seem presumptuous for me to introduce his work on Roman history to the English-speaking audience, I felt compelled to share this important text. Encouraged by enthusiastic admirers of Dr. Mommsen in Germany, I undertook the task of making his History of Rome known in this country. My repeated readings of the German original convinced me of the author's merit and the admiration he deserves. Consequently, I persuaded my friend, Mr. George Robertson, to translate and publish a sample of the introductory chapters, focusing on the early inhabitants of Italy—an area where Dr. Mommsen’s expertise is unparalleled. I hoped this sample would spark interest in the complete work, and I am pleased to say that it has. The result is this translation, which I believe will resonate with readers. As for its merits, I leave that for others to determine.

Nelle città rurali della Mauretania, nelle fattorie dei vignaioli dell'Armenia, nelle valli dell'Indo e sul litorale di Alessandria d'Egitto: ecco dove è da cercare l'opera dell'Impero romano. Ancora oggi esistono regioni dell'Oriente e dell'Occidente per le quali l'epoca imperiale costituì un grado di buongoverno che non venne mai più eguagliato. Roma, camminando sulle orme di Alessandro, soggiogò e incivilì il mondo. Nell'"Impero di Roma" Theodor Mommsen raccolse magistralmente quanto la tradizione e i monumenti offrivano per ricostruire - "con la facoltà immaginativa che è madre così della poesia come della storia" - il quadro dell'Impero dagli albori fino a Diocleziano, colui che istituendo la tetrarchia mutò per sempre il volto dell'ordinamento imperiale: con lui si suggella questa narrazione. Spagna e Gallia e Bretagna, regioni del Reno e del Danubio, Grecia e Asia Minore, il territorio partico dalla Siria all'India, e ancora l'Arabia, la Giudea, l'Egitto, le province africane: vengono descritti gli eventi della storia politica e militare ai confini settentrionali dell'Impero, le istituzioni e l'amministrazione civile in Germania, la cultura ellenica, i costumi e malcostumi delle civiltà presso l'Eufrate, le filosofie e le religioni delle satrapie orientali, le feste e i culti sul Nilo, la vita cittadina e l'agricoltura dei popoli d'Etiopia, le industrie e i commerci dei Berberi, le lingue in uso a Gerusalemme.

Die Darstellung bietet eine umfassende Analyse der spätantiken Welt, indem sie die Provinzen und Grenzgebiete des Imperium Romanum beleuchtet. Mommsen verfolgt das Ziel, die oft verzerrte Wahrnehmung der römischen Kaiserzeit zu korrigieren und ein differenziertes Kulturbild zu schaffen. Im Fokus steht der Gegensatz zwischen dem westlichen Rom und dem hellenisierten Osten, wobei die Romanisierung Italiens und die römischen Annexionen in den Vordergrund gerückt werden. Dies führt zu einer tiefgehenden Auseinandersetzung mit der Geschichte und Kultur der römischen Provinzen von Cäsar bis Diocletian.
