Focusing on the decline of the Roman Empire, Edward Gibbon's work explores the events leading to its downfall, starting with Marcus Aurelius's reign. He argues that the collapse stemmed from a loss of moral integrity, military resolve, and civic responsibility among the populace. Recognized as a classic in world literature, Gibbon's meticulous use of primary sources has earned him the title of the first "modern historian." His influential analysis continues to serve as a valuable reference for scholars today.
