The Story of the Middle Ages, 04. The End of the Western Empire

04. The End of the Western Empire

While the West-Goths were winning lands and booty within the Empire, the other Germans could not long remain idle. They saw that the legions had been recalled from the frontiers in order to guard Italy. They saw their own people suffering from hunger and want. Behind them, too, they felt the pressure of other nations, driving them from their pastures and hunting grounds.

So the news of Rome's weakness and Alaric's victories filled other peoples with eagerness to try their fortunes in the Southern lands. Before the Wast-Goths had settled down in Spain, other tribes had begun to stream across the borders of the Empire. Soon the stream became a flood, and the flood a deluge. All Germany seemed stirred up and hurled against the Empire. Wave after wave swept southward. Horde after horde appeared within the limits of the Empire, seeking lands and goods. For two hundred years this went on. Armies and nations went wandering up and down, burning, robbing, slaying, and making captives. It was a time of confusion, suffering, and change; when the "uncouth Goth," the "horrid Hun," and wild-eyed peoples of many names, struggled for the lands of Rome. They sought only their own gain and advantage, and it seemed that everything was being overturned and nothing built up to take the place of what was destroyed. But this was only in seeming. Unknowingly, these nations were laying the foundations of a new civilization and a new world. For out of this mixing of peoples and institutions, this blending of civilizations, arose the nations, the states, the institutions, of the world of to-day.

In following the history of the West-Goths we have seen that some of these peoples had preceded the Goths into Spain. These were a race called the VANDALS. They too were of German blood. At one time they had dwelt on the shores of the Baltic Sea, near the mouth of the river Elbe. From there they had wandered southward and westward, struggling with other barbarian tribes and with the remaining troops of Rome's imperial army. After many hard-fought contests they had crossed the river Rhine. They had then struggled through Gaul, and at last had reached Spain. Now they were to be driven from that land, too, by the arrival of the West-Goths.

Just at this time the governor of the Roman province of Africa rebelled against the Emperor's government. To get assistance against the Romans, he invited the Vandals to come to Africa, promising them lands and booty. The Vandals needed no second invitation. The Strait of Gibraltar, which separates the shores of Spain from Africa, is only fifteen miles wide; but when once the Vandals were across that strait, they were never to be driven back again.

Twenty-five thousand warriors, together with their women, children, and the old men, came at the call of the rebellious governor. There they set up a kingdom of their own on Roman soil. A cruel, greedy people they were, but able. From their capital,—the old city of Carthage,—their pirate ships rowed up and down the Mediterranean, stopping now at this place and now at that, wherever they saw a chance for plunder. Their King was the most crafty, the most treacherous, the most merciless of the barbarian kings.

"Whither shall we sail?" asked his pilot one day, as the King and his men set out. "Guide us," said the King, "wherever there is a people with whom God is angry." The most famous of the Vandal raids was the one which they made on the city of Rome, forty-five years after it had been plundered by Alaric. The rulers of the Romans were as worthless now as they had been at the earlier day. Again, too, it was at the invitation of a Roman that the Vandals invaded Roman territory. No defense of the city was attempted; but Leo, the holy bishop of Rome, went out with his priests, and tried to soften the fierceness of the barbarian King. For fourteen days the city remained in the hands of the Vandals; and it was plundered to their hearts' content. Besides much rich booty which they carried off, many works of art were broken and destroyed. Because of such destruction as this, the name "Vandal" is still given to anyone who destroys beautiful or useful things recklessly, or solely for the sake of destroying them. Another of the restless German peoples were the BURGUNDIANS. They, too, had once dwelt in the North of German, and had crossed the river Rhine in company with the Vandals. Gradually they had then spread southward into Gaul; and the result was the founding of a kingdom of the Burgundians in the valley of the Rhone River. From that day to this the name Burgundy,—as kingdom, dukedom, county, province,—has remained a famous one in the geography of Europe. But this people was never able to grow into a powerful and independent nation.

The ANGLES and SAXONS who conquered Britain were others of these peoples. They first settled in the island (so the story runs) on the invitation of the people of Britain. The Britons had lived so long under Roman rule that they had learned the ways of their masters, and had forgotten how to fight. So, when wild tribes of Ireland and Scotland came down from the West and North to attack them, the Britons were in an evil situation. To the Roman commander in Gaul they wrote: "The barbarians drive us to the sea; the sea drives us back to the barbarians. Between them we are exposed to two sorts of death; we are either slain or drowned." When they found that the Romans were no longer able to aid them, the Britons asked help from a roving company of Saxons who had come in their long ships to the British shores. When the Angles and Saxons had once got a foothold, they proceeded to conquer the island for themselves. Thus the fairest portion of it came to be called Angleland or England. It was only after two centuries of hard fighting, however, that the conquest was completed. In the West the Britons long continued to keep their independence; and there, the "Welsh" or "foreigners" (as they were styled by the Saxons) continued to use their own language, to follow their own customs, and to obey their own Princes for hundred of years. While the Germans were finding new homes in Roman territory, the restless Huns were ever pressing in from the rear, driving them on and taking their lands as they left. At the time when the Vandals were establishing their kingdom in Africa, and the Saxons were just beginning to come into Britain, a great King arose among the Huns. His name was Attila. Though he was a great warrior and ruler, he was far from being a handsome man. He had a large head, a flat nose, a few hairs in the place of a beard, broad shoulders, and a short square body.

The chief god of the Huns was a god of war. As they did not know how to make statues or images of him, they represented him by a sword or dagger. One day a shepherd found an old sword sticking out of the ground, and brought it to Attila. This, the King said, was a sign that the whole earth should be ruled over by him.

Whether he believed in this sign himself or not, Attila used his own sword so successfully that he formed the scattered tribes of the Huns into a great nation. By wars and treaties he succeeded in establishing a vast empire, including all the peoples from the river Volga to the river Rhine. The lands of the Eastern Empire, too, were wasted by him, even up to the walls of Constantinople. The Empire was forced to pay him tribute; and an Emperor's sister sent him her ring, and begged him to rescue her from the convent in which her brother had confined her. In the year 451 A.D., Attila gathered up his wild horsemen, and set out from his wooden capital in the valley of the Danube. Southward and westward they swept to conquer and destroy. It is said that Attila called himself the "Scourge of God." At any rate his victims knew that ruin and destruction followed in his track; and where he had passed, they said, not a blade of grass was left growing. On and on the Huns passed, through Germany, as far as Western Gaul; and men expected that all Europe would fall under the rule of this fierce people.

This, however, did not come to pass. Near the city of Chalons, in Eastern France, a great battle was fought, in which Romans and Goths fought side by side against the common foe, and all the peoples of Europe seemed engaged in one battle. Rivers of blood, it was said, flowed through the field, and whoever drank of their waters perished. At the close of the first day, the victory was still uncertain. On the next day Attila refused to renew the battle; and when the Romans and Goths drew near his camp, they found it silent and empty. The Huns had slipped away in the night, and returned to their homes on the Danube.

This was one of the decisive battles in the world's history, for it saved Europe from the Huns. Many legends came to cluster about it, and ages later men told how, each year on the night of the battle, the spirits of Goths and Huns rose from their graves, and fought the battle over again in the clouds of the upper air.

The next year Attila came again, with a mighty army, into the Roman lands. This time he turned his attention to Italy. A city lying at the head of the Adriatic was destroyed; and its people then founded Venice on the isles of the sea, that they might thenceforth be free from such attacks. Perhaps Attila might have pressed on to Rome and taken it, too, as Alaric had done, and as the Vandals were to do three years later. But strange misgivings fell upon him. Leo, the holy bishop of Rome, appeared in his court and warned him off. Attila, therefore, retreated, and left Rome untouched. Within two years afterward he died; and then his great empire dropped to pieces, and his people fell to fighting once more among themselves. In this way Christian Europe was delivered from one of the greatest dangers that ever threatened it.

Gaul, Spain, Africa, and Britain, had now been lost by the Romans; but amid all these troubles, the imperial government, both in the East and in the West, still went on. In the West the power had fallen more and more into the hands of chiefs of the Roman army. These men were often barbarians by blood, and did not care to be emperors themselves. Instead, however, they set up and pulled down emperors at will, as Alaric had once done.

In the year 476 A.D.—just thirteen hundred years before the signing of our Declaration of Independence,—the Emperor who was then ruling in the West was a boy of tender years, named Romulus Augustus. He bore the names of the first of the kings of Rome, and of the first of the emperors; but he was to be the last of either. A new leader had now arisen in the army,—a gigantic German, named Odoacer. When Odoacer was about to come into Italy to enter the Roman army, a holy hermit had said to him: "Follow out your plan, and go. There you will soon be able to throw away the coarse garment of skins which you now wear, and will become wealthy and powerful." He had followed this advice, and had risen to be the commander of the Roman army. The old leader, who had put Romulus Augustulus on the throne, was now slain by him, and the boy was then quietly put aside.

Odoacer thus made himself ruler of Italy; but he neither took the name of Emperor himself, nor gave it to any one else. He sent messengers instead to the Emperor of the East, at Constantinople, and laid at his feet the crown and purple robe. He said, in actions, if not in words: "One Emperor is enough for both East and West. I will rule Italy in your name and as your agent." This is sometimes called the fall of the Western Empire; and so it was. Yet there was not so very much change at first. Odoacer ruled in Italy in much the same way as the Emperors had done, except that his rule was better and stronger.

After sixteen years Odoacer was overthrown, and a new ruler arose in his place. This was Theodoric, the King of the EAST-GOTHS. From the days of the battle of Adrianople to the death of Attila, this people had been subject to the Huns. At the battle of Chalons they had fought on the side of the Huns, and against their kinsmen, the West-Goths. Now, however, they were free; and a great leader had arisen among them in the person of Theodoric, the descendant of a long line of Gothic kings.

When Theodoric was a young boy, he had been sent as a hostage to Constantinople, where he had lived for ten years. There he had learned to like the cultured manners of the Romans, but he had not forgotten how to fight. When he had returned home, a handsome lad of seventeen, he had gathered together an army, and without guidance from his father, had captured an important city. This act showed his ability; and when his father died he was acknowledged as the King of his people. He was a man of great strength and courage; he was also wise and anxious for his people to improve. For some years his people had been wandering up and down in the Eastern Empire; but they were unable to master that land because of Constantinople's massive walls. So, with the consent of the Emperor, Theodoric now decided to lead his East-Goths into Italy, drive Odoacer from the land, and settle his people there.

The Goths set out over the Eastern Alps, two hundred thousand strong. With them went their wives and children, their slaves and cattle, and behind came twenty thousand lumbering ox carts laden with their goods. But Odoacer proved a stubborn fighter. Several hard battles had to be fought, and a siege three years long had to be laid to his capital before he was beaten. Then Theodoric, for almost the first and last time in his life, did a mean and treacherous act. His conquered enemy was invited to a friendly banquet; and there he was put to death with his own sword. In this way Theodoric completed the conquest that made him master of the whole of Italy, together with a large territory to the North and East of the Adriatic Sea.

For thirty-three years after that, Theodoric ruled over the kingdom of the East-Goths, as a wise and able king. Equal justice was granted to all, whether they were Goths or Italians; and Theodoric sought in every way to lead his people into a settled and civilized life. The old roads, aqueducts, and public buildings were repaired; and new works in many places were erected. Theodoric was not only a great warrior and statesman; he was also a man of deep and wide thought. If any man and any people were suited to build up a new kingdom out of the ruins of the Empire, and end the long period of disorder and confusion which we call the Dark Ages, it would seem that it was Theodoric, and his East-Goths. But no sooner was Theodoric dead, than his kingdom began to fall to pieces.

The Eastern Empire had now passed into the hands of an able Emperor, who is renowned as a conqueror, a builder, and a law-giver. His name was JUSTINIAN; and he was served by men as great as himself. Under their skillful attacks, much of the lands which had been lost were now won back. The Vandal kingdom in Africa was overturned; the islands of Sicily, Corsica, and Sardinia were recovered; and at last, after years of hard fighting, the East-Goths too were conquered. The last remnant of that race then wandered north of the Alps, and disappeared from history.

It was only for a little while, however, that the Eastern Emperor was able once more to rule all Italy. Within thirteen years a new Germanic people appeared on the scene,—the last to find a settlement within the Empire. These were the LOMBARDS, or "Langobards," as they were called from their long beards. Ten generations before, according to their legends, a wise queen had led their race across the Baltic Sea, from what is now Sweden, to Germany. Since then they had gradually worked their way south, until now they were on the borders of Italy. The northern parts of the peninsula at this time were almost uninhabited, as a result of years of war and pestilence. The resistance to the Lombards, therefore, was very weak; and the whole valley of the river Po—thenceforth to this day called "Lombard"—passed into their hands almost at a blow. These Lombards were a rude people and but little civilized, when they first entered Italy. It was not until some time after they had settled there, that they even became Christians. A wild story is told of the King who led them into Italy. He had slain with his own hand the King of another German folk, and from his enemy's skull he had made a drinking cup, mounted in gold. His wife was the daughter of the King he had slain. Some time after, as he sat long at the table in his capital, he grew boisterous; and sending for the cup, he forced his Queen to drink from it bidding her "drink joyfully with her father." At this the Queen's heart was filled with grief and anger, and she plotted how she might revenge her father upon her husband. So, while the King slept one night, she caused an armed man to creep into the room and slay him. In this way she secured her revenge; but she, and all who had helped her, came to evil ends,—for, as an old writer says, "the hand of Heaven was upon them for doing so foul a deed." The Lombards were not so strongly united as most of the Germans, nor was their form of government so highly developed. Many independent bands of Lombards settled districts in Central and Southern Italy, under the rule of their own leaders, or "dukes." In this way the peninsula was cut up into many governments. The northern part was under the Lombard King; a number of petty dukes each ruled over his own district; and the remainder, including the city of Rome, was ruled by the officers of the Eastern Emperor.

The kingdom of the Lombards lasted for about two hundred years. Then it, too, was overturned, and the land was conquered by a new German people, the greatest of them all and the only one, with the exception of the English, that was to establish a lasting kingdom. These were the FRANKS, who settled in Gaul, and founded France. But before we trace their history we must first turn aside and see how the Christian Church was gaining in strength and power in this dark period of warfare and confusion.

The Britons had lived so long under Roman rule that they had learned the ways of their masters, and had forgotten how to fight. لقد عاش البريطانيون فترة طويلة تحت الحكم الروماني لدرجة أنهم تعلموا طرق أسيادهم، ونسوا كيفية القتال. So, when wild tribes of Ireland and Scotland came down from the West and North to attack them, the Britons were in an evil situation. ||||||||来了|||||||||||||||| |||indigenous groups||||||||||||||||||||| لذلك، عندما جاءت القبائل البرية من أيرلندا واسكتلندا من الغرب والشمال لمهاجمتها، كان البريطانيون في وضع سيئ.

In the West the Britons long continued to keep their independence; and there, the "Welsh" or "foreigners" (as they were styled by the Saxons) continued to use their own language, to follow their own customs, and to obey their own Princes for hundred of years. ||||||||||||||威尔士人|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||| ||||||||||||||||||||called by|||||||||||||||||||||||| ||||||||||||||||||||styled|||||||||||||||||to obey||||||| وفي الغرب، استمر البريطانيون لفترة طويلة في الحفاظ على استقلالهم؛ وهناك، استمر "الويلزيون" أو "الأجانب" (كما أطلق عليهم الساكسونيون) في استخدام لغتهم الخاصة، واتباع عاداتهم الخاصة، وطاعة أمرائهم لمئات السنين. While the Germans were finding new homes in Roman territory, the restless Huns were ever pressing in from the rear, driving them on and taking their lands as they left. ||||||||||这些|||正在|||||||||||||||| |||||||||||unsettled||||||||from behind|||||||||| |||||||||||||||||||ззаду|||||||||| |||||||||territorio||inquieti|||||||||driving||||||||| بينما كان الألمان يجدون منازل جديدة في الأراضي الرومانية، كان الهون المضطربون يضغطون من الخلف، ويطاردونهم ويستولون على أراضيهم عند مغادرتهم. At the time when the Vandals were establishing their kingdom in Africa, and the Saxons were just beginning to come into Britain, a great King arose among the Huns. 在||时刻||||||||||||||刚刚|||||||||||| |||||||||||||||||||||la Gran Bretagna||||||| في الوقت الذي كان فيه الوندال يؤسسون مملكتهم في أفريقيا، وكان الساكسونيون قد بدأوا للتو في القدوم إلى بريطانيا، ظهر ملك عظيم بين الهون. His name was Attila. |||阿提拉 كان اسمه أتيلا. Though he was a great warrior and ruler, he was far from being a handsome man. على الرغم من أنه كان محاربًا وحاكمًا عظيمًا، إلا أنه لم يكن رجلاً وسيمًا. He had a large head, a flat nose, a few hairs in the place of a beard, broad shoulders, and a short square body. ||||||||||毛||||||胡须|||||短|| ||||||||||||||||barba||||||| كان له رأس كبير، وأنف مسطح، وبعض الشعرات مكان اللحية، وأكتاف عريضة، وجسم مربع قصير.

The chief god of the Huns was a god of war. وكان الإله الرئيسي للهون إله الحرب. As they did not know how to make statues or images of him, they represented him by a sword or dagger. ||||||||||||||||||||匕首 ||||||||||||||symbolized||||||short-bladed weapon ||||||||||||||||||||un pugnale ولأنهم لم يعرفوا كيف يصنعون له تماثيل أو صورًا، فقد مثلوه بالسيف أو الخنجر.

This, the King said, was a sign that the whole earth should be ruled over by him. وقال الملك إن هذه علامة على أنه يجب أن يحكم الأرض كلها.

Whether he believed in this sign himself or not, Attila used his own sword so successfully that he formed the scattered tribes of the Huns into a great nation. ||相信|||||||||||||||||||||||||| ||||||||||||||||||shaped||spread out|||||||| ||||||||||||||||||||розсіяні|||||||| |||||||||||||spada||con successo|||||dispersi|||||||| وسواء كان أتيلا يؤمن بهذه العلامة بنفسه أم لا، فقد استخدم سيفه بنجاح لدرجة أنه شكل قبائل الهون المتناثرة في أمة عظيمة.

The lands of the Eastern Empire, too, were wasted by him, even up to the walls of Constantinople. |||||||被||||甚至|||||| ||||||||devastated||||||||| ||||||||devastate||||||||| كما أهدر أراضي الإمبراطورية الشرقية أيضًا حتى أسوار القسطنطينية. Земли Восточной империи также были растащены им, вплоть до стен Константинополя. The Empire was forced to pay him tribute; and an Emperor's sister sent him her ring, and begged him to rescue her from the convent in which her brother had confined her. ||||||||||||||||||||||||修道院||||||| |||||||payment of respect|||||||||||||||||religious community||||||imprisoned| |||||||tributo|||||||||||||||||||||||had confined| |||||||данина|||||||||||||||||||||||| اضطرت الإمبراطورية إلى دفع الجزية له. وأرسلت إليه أخت الإمبراطور خاتمها وتوسلت إليه أن ينقذها من الدير الذي حبسها فيه شقيقها.

Southward and westward they swept to conquer and destroy. ||||||to conquer|| اجتاحوا الجنوب والغرب للغزو والتدمير. На юг и на запад они устремились, чтобы завоевать и уничтожить. It is said that Attila called himself the "Scourge of God." 他||||||||天谴|| ||||||||Divine punishment tool|| ||||||||scourge|| ||||||||потоптання|| ويقال أن أتيلا أطلق على نفسه اسم "آفة الله".

Во всяком случае, его жертвы знали, что по его следу идут разрушения и разорение, а там, где он прошел, по их словам, не осталось ни травинки. On and on the Huns passed, through Germany, as far as Western Gaul; and men expected that all Europe would fall under the rule of this fierce people. ||||||||||||||||||||||||||ferocious| ومر الهون مرارًا وتكرارًا عبر ألمانيا حتى بلاد الغال الغربية؛ وتوقع الرجال أن تقع أوروبا كلها تحت حكم هذا الشعب الشرس.

This, however, did not come to pass. ||||发生|| لكن هذا لم يحدث. Near the city of Chalons, in Eastern France, a great battle was fought, in which Romans and Goths fought side by side against the common foe, and all the peoples of Europe seemed engaged in one battle. ||||沙隆|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||| |||||||||significant||||||||||||||||common enemy||||||||involved in fighting||| ||||Chalons|||||||||||||||||||||enemy|||||||||||battaglia ||||Шалоні|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||| بالقرب من مدينة شالون، في شرق فرنسا، دارت معركة كبيرة، قاتل فيها الرومان والقوط جنبًا إلى جنب ضد العدو المشترك، وبدا أن جميع شعوب أوروبا منخرطة في معركة واحدة.

At the close of the first day, the victory was still uncertain. 在||||||||||| ومع نهاية اليوم الأول، كان النصر لا يزال غير مؤكد.

The Huns had slipped away in the night, and returned to their homes on the Danube. |||sneaked away quietly|||||||||||| كان الهون قد هربوا في الليل، وعادوا إلى منازلهم على نهر الدانوب.

This was one of the decisive battles in the world's history, for it saved Europe from the Huns. ||||这||||||||||||| |||||crucial|||||||||||| |||||вирішальний|||||||||||| وكانت هذه واحدة من المعارك الحاسمة في تاريخ العالم، لأنها أنقذت أوروبا من الهون. Many legends came to cluster about it, and ages later men told how, each year on the night of the battle, the spirits of Goths and Huns rose from their graves, and fought the battle over again in the clouds of the upper air. 许多||来||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||| ||||gather together||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||higher atmosphere| ||||raggrupparsi||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||| وتجمعت العديد من الأساطير حول هذا الموضوع، وبعد عصور طويلة روى الرجال كيف كانت أرواح القوط والهون تنهض من قبورها كل عام في ليلة المعركة، وتخوض المعركة مرة أخرى في سحب الهواء العلوي. Об этом сложено множество легенд, и спустя века люди рассказывали, как каждый год в ночь битвы духи готов и гуннов восставали из могил и снова сражались в верхних облаках.

The next year Attila came again, with a mighty army, into the Roman lands. ||||||||powerful||||| ||||||||powerful||||| وفي العام التالي، عاد أتيلا مرة أخرى بجيش عظيم إلى الأراضي الرومانية. This time he turned his attention to Italy. هذه المرة حول انتباهه إلى إيطاليا. A city lying at the head of the Adriatic was destroyed; and its people then founded Venice on the isles of the sea, that they might thenceforth be free from such attacks. ||位于|在|||||||||||||||||||||||从此以后||||| |||||||||||||||||||islands|||||||from then on||||| ||||||||||||||||||||||||||from then on||||| |||||||||||||||||||острови|||||||відтоді||||| تم تدمير مدينة تقع على رأس البحر الأدرياتيكي. ثم أسس شعبها مدينة البندقية على جزر البحر، حتى يكونوا من الآن فصاعدًا خاليين من مثل هذه الهجمات.

Gaul, Spain, Africa, and Britain, had now been lost by the Romans; but amid all these troubles, the imperial government, both in the East and in the West, still went on. |||||||已经||||||||||||||||||||||| |||||||||||||in the middle||||||||||||||||| |||||||||||||amid|||||imperial|||||||||||| لقد فقد الرومان الآن غالة وأسبانيا وإفريقيا وبريطانيا. ولكن وسط كل هذه المشاكل، استمرت الحكومة الإمبراطورية في الشرق والغرب. ガリア、スペイン、アフリカ、イギリスは今やローマ人によって失われていました。しかし、これらすべての問題の中で、東と西の両方の帝国政府はまだ続いていました。 高卢、西班牙、非洲和不列颠,现在都已经被罗马人失去了;但在所有这些麻烦中,东西方的皇帝政府仍然在继续运作。 In the West the power had fallen more and more into the hands of chiefs of the Roman army. وفي الغرب، سقطت السلطة أكثر فأكثر في أيدي قادة الجيش الروماني. 在西方,权力越来越多地落入罗马军队首领的手中。 These men were often barbarians by blood, and did not care to be emperors themselves. كان هؤلاء الرجال في كثير من الأحيان برابرة بالدم، ولم يهتموا بأن يكونوا هم أنفسهم أباطرة. Instead, however, they set up and pulled down emperors at will, as Alaric had once done. ||他们||||||||||||| ولكن بدلاً من ذلك، قاموا بتعيين الأباطرة وإسقاطهم حسب الرغبة، كما فعل ألاريك ذات مرة.

In the year 476 A.D.—just thirteen hundred years before the signing of our Declaration of Independence,—the Emperor who was then ruling in the West was a boy of tender years, named Romulus Augustus. |||||||||之前|这||||||||||是|||||||||||||| |||||||||||||||||||||at that time|||||||||young|||| |||||||||||assinatura||||||||||||||||||||||| في عام 476 م – قبل ألف وثلاثمائة عام فقط من توقيع إعلان استقلالنا – كان الإمبراطور الذي كان يحكم الغرب آنذاك صبيًا صغيرًا، يُدعى رومولوس أوغسطس. 独立宣言に署名するちょうど1300年前の西暦476年、当時西側を支配していた皇帝は、ロムルス・アウグストゥスという名の優しい年の少年でした。 He bore the names of the first of the kings of Rome, and of the first of the emperors; but he was to be the last of either. 他|承载||||的||||||罗马||的||||||||是|||的||| |carried|||||||||||||||||||||||||| |levou consigo|||||||||||||||||||||||||de|um ou outro وحمل أسماء أول ملوك روما وأول الأباطرة. لكنه كان ليكون الأخير في أي منهما. 彼はローマの最初の王と最初の皇帝の名前を持っていました。しかし、彼はどちらかの最後になるはずでした。 他拥有罗马首位国王和首位皇帝的名字;但他将会是两者之中的最后一个。 A new leader had now arisen in the army,—a gigantic German, named Odoacer. |||||||||||||奥多亚克 |||||emerged|||||enormous|||Odoacer |||||surgido|||exército||gigante||| وقد ظهر الآن قائد جديد في الجيش، وهو ألماني عملاق يُدعى أودواكر. オドアケルという名の巨大なドイツ人である新しいリーダーが軍隊に登場しました。 军队中现在出现了一位新的领袖——一个名叫奥多亚塞的巨型德意志人。 When Odoacer was about to come into Italy to enter the Roman army, a holy hermit had said to him: "Follow out your plan, and go. |奥多亚克||||||||||||||隐士|||||||||| |||||||||||||||reclusive person|||||||||| |||||||||||||||eremita santo||||a ele|||||| عندما كان أودواكر على وشك القدوم إلى إيطاليا للانضمام إلى الجيش الروماني، قال له ناسك مقدس: "اتبع خطتك واذهب. オドアケルがローマ軍に入隊するためにイタリアにやって来ようとしたとき、聖なる隠者が彼にこう言いました。 当奥多亚塞准备来到意大利加入罗马军队时,一位圣洁的隐士对他说:"执行你的计划,去吧。" There you will soon be able to throw away the coarse garment of skins which you now wear, and will become wealthy and powerful." |||||||||||衣物|||哪一个||||||||| ||||||||||rough-textured|clothing or attire|||||||||||| ||||||||||grosseira|vestimenta grosseira|||||||||||| هناك ستتمكن قريبًا من التخلص من الرداء الخشن من الجلد الذي ترتديه الآن، وسوف تصبح ثريًا وقويًا." そこで、あなたはすぐにあなたが今着ている皮の粗い衣服を捨てることができるでしょう、そして裕福で強力になるでしょう。」 He had followed this advice, and had risen to be the commander of the Roman army. |||||||advanced|||||||| ||||||seguido|ascendido a||||comandante|||| وقد اتبع هذه النصيحة، وارتقى إلى أن أصبح قائد الجيش الروماني. 彼はこのアドバイスに従い、ローマ軍の指揮官になりました。 The old leader, who had put Romulus Augustulus on the throne, was now slain by him, and the boy was then quietly put aside. |||||放置||奥古斯都|上|||||||||||被|||| |||||||||||||||by Romulus Augustulus|||||||| ||||||||||o trono||||||||||||| قُتل الآن الزعيم القديم، الذي وضع رومولوس أوغستولوس على العرش، ثم تم وضع الصبي جانبًا بهدوء. ロムルス・アウグストゥラスを王位に就かせていた古い指導者は、今や彼に殺され、少年は静かに脇に置かれました。

Odoacer thus made himself ruler of Italy; but he neither took the name of Emperor himself, nor gave it to any one else. |in this way||||||||||||||||||||| ||||||da Itália|||||||||||||||| وهكذا جعل أودواكر نفسه حاكمًا لإيطاليا. لكنه لم يأخذ اسم الإمبراطور بنفسه، ولم يمنحه لأي شخص آخر. このようにして、オドアケルは自分自身をイタリアの支配者にしました。しかし、彼は皇帝自身の名前をとったり、他の誰にもそれを与えたりしませんでした。 He sent messengers instead to the Emperor of the East, at Constantinople, and laid at his feet the crown and purple robe. |||||||||||||||||||||紫袍 ||||||||||||||||||||royal attire|ceremonial garment |||||||||||||colocou aos pés|||||||| وأرسل بدلاً من ذلك رسلاً إلى إمبراطور المشرق في القسطنطينية، ووضع عند قدميه التاج والرداء الأرجواني. 彼は代わりにコンスタンティノープルの東の皇帝に使者を送り、彼の足元に王冠と紫色のローブを置いた。 Вместо этого он отправил гонцов к императору Востока в Константинополь и положил к его ногам корону и пурпурную мантию. 他向东帝国的皇帝派遣了使者,送上了皇冠和紫袍。 He said, in actions, if not in words: "One Emperor is enough for both East and West. |||||||||||sufficient||||| وقال بالفعل إن لم يكن بالقول: "إمبراطور واحد يكفي للشرق والغرب. He said, in actions, if not in words: "One Emperor is enough for both East and West. 彼は、言葉ではないにしても、行動の中で次のように述べた。 他说,虽然不一定用言语,但在行动上表明:"一个皇帝就足够统治东西方了。 I will rule Italy in your name and as your agent." ||||||||||representative سأحكم إيطاليا باسمك وباعتباري وكيلك". 私はあなたの名前とあなたの代理人としてイタリアを支配します。」 我将以你的名义,作为你的代理来统治意大利。" This is sometimes called the fall of the Western Empire; and so it was. يُطلق على هذا أحيانًا اسم سقوط الإمبراطورية الغربية؛ وكان كذلك. これは、西ローマ帝国の崩壊と呼ばれることもあります。そしてそうだった。 Yet there was not so very much change at first. ومع ذلك، لم يكن هناك الكثير من التغيير في البداية. しかし、最初はそれほど大きな変化はありませんでした。 Odoacer ruled in Italy in much the same way as the Emperors had done, except that his rule was better and stronger. Odoacer governed effectively.||||||||||||||||||||| |||Itália|||||||||||||||||| حكم أودواكر في إيطاليا بنفس الطريقة التي حكم بها الأباطرة، باستثناء أن حكمه كان أفضل وأقوى. オドアケルは、彼の支配がより良く、より強力であったことを除いて、皇帝が行ったのとほとんど同じ方法でイタリアを支配しました。

After sixteen years Odoacer was overthrown, and a new ruler arose in his place. |||||removed from power|||||||| |||||derrubado|||||surgiu||| وبعد ستة عشر عامًا، تمت الإطاحة بأودواكر، وقام مكانه حاكم جديد. 16年後、オドアケルは倒され、代わりに新しい支配者が生まれました。 This was Theodoric, the King of the EAST-GOTHS. ||西哥特王|||||| كان هذا ثيودوريك، ملك القوط الشرقيين.

It was only for a little while, however, that the Eastern Emperor was able once more to rule all Italy. 它||只是||||||||||||||||| ولكن لفترة قصيرة فقط تمكن الإمبراطور الشرقي من حكم إيطاليا بأكملها مرة أخرى. しかし、東皇帝が再びイタリア全土を統治することができたのはほんの少しの間でした。 Within thirteen years a new Germanic people appeared on the scene,—the last to find a settlement within the Empire. ||||||||||||||||permanent residence||| وفي غضون ثلاثة عشر عامًا، ظهر على الساحة شعب جرماني جديد، وكان آخر من وجد مستوطنة داخل الإمبراطورية. 13年以内に、新しいゲルマン人が登場しました。これは、帝国内で最後に開拓地を見つけた人々です。 在十三年内,一个新的日耳曼民族出现在舞台上——这是最后一个在帝国内找到定居点的民族。 These were the LOMBARDS, or "Langobards," as they were called from their long beards. |||||伦巴第人|||是||||| |||||||||||||barbas وكان هؤلاء هم اللومبارديون، أو "اللانغوبارديون"، كما كانوا يُسمون بسبب لحاهم الطويلة. 他们就是伦巴第人,或称为“朗戈巴尔德”,因为他们有着长长的胡须。 Ten generations before, according to their legends, a wise queen had led their race across the Baltic Sea, from what is now Sweden, to Germany. ||||||traditional stories|||||guided||||||||||||| قبل عشرة أجيال، وفقًا لأساطيرهم، قادت ملكة حكيمة عرقهم عبر بحر البلطيق، من ما يعرف الآن بالسويد، إلى ألمانيا. 据他们的传说,十代前,一位聪明的女王曾带领他们的族群越过波罗的海,从现在的瑞典来到德国。 Since then they had gradually worked their way south, until now they were on the borders of Italy. ومنذ ذلك الحين، شقوا طريقهم تدريجيًا جنوبًا، حتى وصلوا إلى حدود إيطاليا. The northern parts of the peninsula at this time were almost uninhabited, as a result of years of war and pestilence. |||||||||||sparsely populated|||||||||deadly disease |||||||||||непридатний для життя||||||||| |norte||||||||||quase desabitadas||||||da|||pestilência كانت الأجزاء الشمالية من شبه الجزيرة في ذلك الوقت غير مأهولة تقريبًا، نتيجة لسنوات من الحرب والأوبئة. The resistance to the Lombards, therefore, was very weak; and the whole valley of the river Po—thenceforth to this day called "Lombard"—passed into their hands almost at a blow. 这个||||||||||||||||波河||||天||伦巴第|||||几乎||| |||||||||||||||||from that time|||||Lombardy||||||||all at once |||||||||||||||||a partir de então||||||||||||| لذلك كانت مقاومة اللومبارد ضعيفة للغاية. وسقط وادي نهر بو بأكمله - الذي يُطلق عليه منذ ذلك الحين فصاعدا "لومبارد" - في أيديهم بضربة واحدة تقريبًا. These Lombards were a rude people and but little civilized, when they first entered Italy. كان هؤلاء اللومبارديون أشخاصًا فظين ولكنهم قليلي التحضر عندما دخلوا إيطاليا لأول مرة. It was not until some time after they had settled there, that they even became Christians. ||didn't||||||||||||| ولم يكن الأمر كذلك إلا بعد مرور بعض الوقت على استقرارهم هناك، حتى أصبحوا مسيحيين. 直到他们在那里安顿下来一段时间后,他们才成为基督徒。 A wild story is told of the King who led them into Italy. تُروى قصة جامحة عن الملك الذي قادهم إلى إيطاليا. 有一个关于带他们进入意大利的国王的离奇故事。 He had slain with his own hand the King of another German folk, and from his enemy's skull he had made a drinking cup, mounted in gold. ||||||||||||||||敌人的|||||||||| |||||||||||Germanic tribe|||||||||||||decorated with|| |||||||||||||||||crânio|||||||revestido de|| لقد قتل بيده ملكًا لشعب ألماني آخر، وصنع من جمجمة عدوه كوبًا للشرب مثبتًا بالذهب. 他亲手杀死了另一个德意志民族的国王,并用他敌人的头骨制作了一个金制的饮杯。 His wife was the daughter of the King he had slain. وكانت زوجته ابنة الملك الذي قتله. Some time after, as he sat long at the table in his capital, he grew boisterous; and sending for the cup, he forced his Queen to drink from it bidding her "drink joyfully with her father." |||||||||||||||喧闹的||||||||||||||饮酒|||欢快地||| |||||||||||||||loud and energetic||||||||||||||commanding|||||| |||||||||||||||ruidoso e alegre||||||||||||||ordenando que|||||| |||||||||||||||гучний||||||||||||||підштовхуючи|||||| بعد مرور بعض الوقت، بينما كان يجلس لفترة طويلة على الطاولة في عاصمته، أصبح صاخبًا؛ وأرسل ليطلب الكأس، وأجبر ملكته على الشرب منه، وأمرها "أن تشرب بفرح مع والدها". At this the Queen's heart was filled with grief and anger, and she plotted how she might revenge her father upon her husband. |这个|||||||悲伤|||||策划||||||||| ||||||||deep sorrow|||||schemed||||||||| عندها امتلأ قلب الملكة بالحزن والغضب، وخطرت لكيفية الانتقام من والدها من زوجها. 此时,女王的心中充满了悲伤与愤怒,她策划着如何为父亲报仇于丈夫。 So, while the King slept one night, she caused an armed man to creep into the room and slay him. |||||||她|||||||||||杀死| ||||||||arranged for|||||sneak in|||||kill him violently| |enquanto|||||||||||||||||| لذا، بينما كان الملك نائمًا في إحدى الليالي، تسببت في تسلل رجل مسلح إلى الغرفة وقتله. 于是,在一个夜晚,国王睡觉时,她让一个武装男子悄悄进入房间杀了他。 In this way she secured her revenge; but she, and all who had helped her, came to evil ends,—for, as an old writer says, "the hand of Heaven was upon them for doing so foul a deed." |||||||||||||||||||||||||这|||||||||||| ||||achieved||||||||||||||||||||||||divine justice|||||||immoral||wicked act |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||tão vil||ato vil |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||огидний||вчинок وبهذه الطريقة ضمنت انتقامها. لكنها وكل من ساعدها، وصلوا إلى نهايات سيئة، لأنه، كما يقول كاتب قديم، "كانت يد السماء عليهم لارتكابهم هذا العمل السيء". このようにして、彼女は復讐を果たしました。しかし、彼女と彼女を助けたすべての人は、邪悪な終わりを迎えました。なぜなら、古い作家が言うように、「天の手は、そのように悪い行いをしたために彼らの上にあった」からです。 以这种方式,她报了仇;但她和所有帮助她的人都遭到了恶报——正如一位古老的作家所说,“天意降临在他们身上,因为他们做了如此卑鄙的事情。” The Lombards were not so strongly united as most of the Germans, nor was their form of government so highly developed. لم يكن اللومبارد متحدين بقوة مثل معظم الألمان، ولم يكن شكل حكومتهم متطورًا للغاية. ロンバード人はほとんどのドイツ人ほど強く団結しておらず、彼らの政府形態もそれほど高度に発達していませんでした。 Many independent bands of Lombards settled districts in Central and Southern Italy, under the rule of their own leaders, or "dukes." ||||||||||||||||||||公爵 ||groups of warriors|||||||||||||||||| ||||||||||||||||||||князі ||||||||||do Sul|||||||||| استقرت العديد من المجموعات المستقلة من اللومبارديين في مناطق وسط وجنوب إيطاليا، تحت حكم قادتهم، أو "الدوقات". ロンバードの多くの独立したバンドは、彼ら自身の指導者、または「公爵」の支配下で、イタリア中部と南部の地区に定住しました。 In this way the peninsula was cut up into many governments. ||||||divided||||political entities وبهذه الطريقة تم تقسيم شبه الجزيرة إلى العديد من الحكومات. このようにして、半島は多くの政府に分割されました。 The northern part was under the Lombard King; a number of petty dukes each ruled over his own district; and the remainder, including the city of Rome, was ruled by the officers of the Eastern Emperor. ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||这个||||| ||||||||||belonging to|small-time||||||||||the rest|||||||||||||| |||||||||||pequenos|||||||||||||||||||||||| كان الجزء الشمالي تحت حكم الملك اللومباردي. عدد من الدوقات الصغار حكم كل منهم منطقته؛ والباقي، بما في ذلك مدينة روما، كان يحكمها ضباط الإمبراطور الشرقي. 北部はロンバードキングの下にありました。それぞれが自分の地区を支配していた多くのささいな公爵。ローマ市を含む残りの部分は、東皇帝の将校によって統治されていました。

The kingdom of the Lombards lasted for about two hundred years. استمرت مملكة اللومبارد حوالي مائتي عام. ランゴバルド王国は約200年間続いた。 Lombardların krallığı yaklaşık iki yüz yıl sürdü. Then it, too, was overturned, and the land was conquered by a new German people, the greatest of them all and the only one, with the exception of the English, that was to establish a lasting kingdom. ||||||||||||||民族|||||||的||||||||||||||| ||||||||||||||||||||||||||apart from|||||||set up||Enduring| ثم انقلبت أيضًا، وتم فتح الأرض من قبل شعب ألماني جديد، أعظمهم جميعًا والوحيد، باستثناء الإنجليز، الذي كان له أن يؤسس مملكة دائمة. それからそれもまたひっくり返され、土地は新しいドイツ人によって征服されました。彼らの中で最も偉大な人々は、英語を除いて、永続的な王国を確立することでした。 然后它也被推翻,土地被一个新的德国民族征服,所有民族中最伟大的,除了英国人之外,唯一一个建立持久王国的民族。 These were the FRANKS, who settled in Gaul, and founded France. |||法兰克||||||| هؤلاء هم الفرنجة الذين استقروا في بلاد الغال وأسسوا فرنسا. これらは、ガリアに定住し、フランスを設立したフランク人でした。 他们就是法兰克人,他们定居在高卢,建立了法国。 But before we trace their history we must first turn aside and see how the Christian Church was gaining in strength and power in this dark period of warfare and confusion. ||我们|||||||||||||||||||||||||||| |||track down||||||||||||||||||||||||||| ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||плутанина ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||guerra|| ولكن قبل أن نتتبع تاريخهم، يجب علينا أولاً أن ننحي جانبًا ونرى كيف كانت الكنيسة المسيحية تكتسب قوة وقوة في هذه الفترة المظلمة من الحرب والارتباك.
