Excerpt from Histoire de la Gaule (Grand Priz Gobert de l'Acad???mie Fran???aise), Vol. 2: La Gaule Ind???pendante Une telle opinion ne venait sans doute pas de l'exacte con naissance du pays. Elle ???tait le r???sultat de la fa???on dont les Celtes et les Galates se pr???sent???rent au monde gr???co - romain, et de la peur qu'ils lui inspir???rent. Depuis 390 jusqu'en 207, presque chaque ann???e, les habitants du Midi apprenaient que des bandes auxquelles on donnait ces noms avaient franchi les Alpes ou I'll???mus, et qu'elles descendaient vers eux. Les Gaulois ???taient les ennemis qui reviennent sans tr???ve, et qui ne laissent aucun r???pit ??? l'inqui???tude. Et ils se montraient, non pas en bataillons de m???les arm???s, mais en nations qui ???migrent, avec des femmes, des enfants, des vieillards, des troupeaux et des chariots'. La surprise et la crainte troubl???rcnt les calculs chez les M???ridionaux; leur imagination lit le reste, et ils crurent que dansla terre d'o??? ces hommes venaient, familles et tribus ???taient in???puisables. Ce qui est l'impression ordinaire que les invasions laissent ??? leurs victimes. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at ...
