Summary
The Goths are the most enigmatic of all the ancient German tribes. Their name today is still widely in use for a variety of cultural and artistic movements. But unlike other famous German tribes whose names are still descriptive of nations they founded - the Franks, the Lombards, the Angles, the Saxons, and the Alemanni - the Goths simply disappeared. The subject of Henry Bradley's splendid short history is tracing the rise, the migrations, and the impact of the Goths on European history along with their spectacular fall. It is a fascinating story of courage, resilience, and dogged determination. And it is the story of some of the greatest German chieftains and kings produced before the time of Charlemagne...awesome leaders like Alaric and Theodoric. The Goths brought down the mighty Roman Empire. But before they faded away, they left an indelible imprint on our civilization.
