在英语历史上伟大的著作中，爱德华·吉本将十三个动荡的世纪浓缩为一部扣人心弦的史诗式叙述。这是一部以十八世纪宏大风格写成的历史，是一部研究严谨、充满洞察力、讽刺意味和犀利人物分析的戏剧作品。吉本以优雅的文笔，既呈现了事件的宏观脉络，又揭示出重要的细节。他以同等的权威与从容深入探讨了宗教、政治、性情以及社会习俗。尽管后世的研究发现关于早期帝国的一些事实存在细微错误，但吉本大胆的视野、对众多人物生动而机智的描写，以及敢于展现自身信念与偏见的态度，使这部作品成为一部令人惊叹的历史与文学杰作，既深刻睿智，又极为引人入胜。
根据大卫·沃默斯利所著的《罗马帝国衰亡史》三卷本企鹅经典版，本书节选了全部三卷中的完整章节，并通过详尽的衔接段落进行连接，生动地再现了全书的风格、论点和结构。
In the greatest work of history in the English language, Edward Gibbon compresses thirteen turbulent centuries into a gripping epic narrative. It is history in the grand eighteenth-century manner, a well-researched drama charged with insight, irony, and incisive character analysis. In elegant prose, Gibbon presents both the broad pattern of events and the significant revealing detail. He delves into religion, politics, sexuality, and social mores with equal authority and aplomb. While subsequent research revealed minor factual errors about the early Empire, Gibbon's bold vision, witty descriptions of a vast cast of characters, and readiness to display his own beliefs and prejudices result in an astonishing work of history and literature, at once powerfully intelligent and enormously entertaining.
Based on David Womersley's definitive three-volume Penguin Classics edition of The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire, this abridgement contains complete chapters from all three volumes, linked by extended bridging passages, vividly capture the style, the argument, and the architecture of the whole work.
