Gibbon, Edward (1737 - 1794) Angleterre Ecrivain Lausanne / VD
L'écrivain et historien de l'Empire romain Edward Gibbon, né en Angleterre le 27 avril 1737, passa toute sa jeunesse sur les bords du lac Léman . Issu d'une famille de la haute bourgeoisie anglaise, il vint en Suisse pour son instruction comme le voulait une certaine tradition. Le jeune homme suivit les cours de la faculté de droit, de langue et d'histoire de Lausanne , ville dont il fréquentait de plus les salons littéraires où l'on pouvait lire la presse étrangère et jouer au whist. Tombé éperdument amoureux de la fille du pasteur de la ville, Suzanne Curchod, il tenta de l'épouser maison son père s'y opposa catégoriquement, et Gibbon dut se résigner la mort dans l'âme au célibat. Le jeune Gibbon quitta alors la ville pour oublier son chagrin et n'y revint que 5 ans plus tard. L'oeuvre de sa vie

Who Is Edward Gibbon?
Edward Gibbon (1737-1794) was an 18th Century British historian and the author of "The History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire," one of the few historical works of the modern era to stand comparison with the great classical works of Herodotus, Thucydides and Tacitus both as history and as literature.
At a million and a half words, Gibbon's masterpiece is not only one of the greatest works of history ever written, but one of the longest. As with Tolstoy's "War and Peace" and Proust's "A la recherche du temps perdu," its very length is daunting to many readers.
The comparison with Proust is particularly appropriate, since both Gibbon and Proust made the same (arguable) mistake. Roughly midway through the writing of their respective books, they decided to reconceive their scale. This ended up making their books more than twice as long as they would have been if they'd followed their original conceptions. Without a doubt, this has had the effect of cutting their potential readership in at least half. A lot of people who would read a book of half a million words will balk at attempting a book of a million and a half.
Why Should I Spend God Knows How Many Hours of My Life Reading a Million and a Half Words About the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire?

http://www.blupete.com/Literature/Biographies/History/Gibbon.htm
Edward Gibbon
He was the son of an English country gentleman and was educated at Magdalen College, Oxford; and, as Chamber's points out, "he derived little benefit from either." After schooling in Lausanne, Switzerland (during which time he was to fall in love with the parson's daughter, and to which his father put a quick end) the young Gibbon returned to London where he took up residence in his father's household and found the leisure for scholarly study and bookish solitude. Gibbon's cynicism, in regards to history, viz., "little more than the register of the crimes, follies and misfortunes of mankind" added "a spice to the work which relates it to literature rather than history. His accuracy in the use of his sources has not been questioned." ( Chamber's .) Gibbon's major work, of course was his multi-volumed written through the years, 1776 to 1787 and is the standard history on the Roman civilization. Gibbon was to write an autobiography. [UP] QUOTES:-
History:-
  • History is little more than the register of the crimes, follies and misfortunes of mankind.
    Revolution:-
  • ... our tranquillity has been clouded by the disorders in France ... the revolution, or rather the dissolution of the kingdom, has been heard and felt in the adjacent lands. I beg leave to subscribe my assent to
