As dry as it is informative

Certainly, the language used made it difficult at times to listen and decipher what was being said.
That being said, a more compete history of the Holy Roman Empire shall not be found, I think

Broadened my knowledge of this time in history.

I'll be honest however this is a quite a labor to listen to for long sittings. Having a historical companion map is helpful to see where these events take place.

Short listens and repeat listening in definitely required if you want to grasp the material.

NOT an easy but addicting listen!

This is an advanced study that focusses on causes and consequences. Know your history first. The names and dates go by so fast if mentioned at all that I found myself constantly trying to catch up with what was being told. That being said, once I got into the book, I couldn`t stop listening to it and I did learn more than I expected by the end. NOW, I going to go back and listen to some more history of the period and may, just may listen to this book again. Griffin does an outstanding narration.

Unique coverage of the subject

Excellent overall view of the Holy Roman Empire, covering not only the historical events but also the philosophical, religious issues, political forces and people's beliefs of the different times in which the institution of the Holy Roman Empire either prevailed or coexisted with the Papacy, the Eastern Roman Empire and other kingdoms. Beautiful performance, with fitting old fashioned British accent and great care in pronouncing names in the correct way for listeners conversant with vernacular languages, including latin. Some repetition of ideas here and there in the story to reinforce them, but at times somewhat otious.

you got what you asked for.

this is a very informative book. It's not necessarily big on giving you exact dates of when every little bit of History happened. However it does convey the feelings and the ideals behind the Holy Roman Empire at each point in time. After every Epoch it show what the lasting effects were. but along with this very informative positive. It also comes with a strong negative. You have to remember that this is a book that was published in 1864. the sentences are very complex and long and drawn-out. the translations into Latin words are not given. and the history they convey may sound a little confusing because their contemporary is not our contemporary. But, if you are looking for information on the Holy Roman Empire and find it scares and hard to find. This is the book for you.

The Holy Roman Empire

James Bryce’s 'The Holy Roman Empire,' originally published in 1864, provides a thorough and insightful analysis of the unique political institution that was the Holy Roman Empire. Despite some aspects of its analysis and structure being perceived as dated, the book remains a significant resource for those looking to grasp the evolution of European political systems. Bryce’s work is recognized for its depth, clarity, and balanced perspective, making it a valuable read for anyone interested in the historical context and development of the Holy Roman Empire.
Charlton Griffin's performance and style are an acquired taste, but I always enjoy it.

Please stop the faux-Brit accent.

It makes it much harder to understand what you're saying when you're focusing on your pronunciation rather than the meaning of the text. Yeah, I know this particular author happened to be English, but Plutarch wasn't. Nor was Mommsen. Thanks!

Cannot Understand the narrator

Although what I was able to discern sounded interesting, I simply could not understand the narrator. I was missing at least 2/3 of every sentence. It wasn't his accent, but rather the undulation of his sentences that caused the problem.

Calm Down, Dr. Historian

I would like to start by saying I frequently listen to historical non-fiction on almost a daily basis and many of these books, as to be expected, are overly wordy. This book however takes that to the utmost extreme and constantly uses words you expect to see in a lab report about neural networks, but oh wait, this is history about an already convoluted empire. Simply put, this author has one of the most presumptuosly over complicated writing styles unfit to be listened to.

Downgrade for style

Although I have a great interest in the subject matter and believe that there is much good content here, I found the pedantic writing style and the matching reading more than a little off putting.

As an audiobook, it just doesn't work.
