Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: MAR-MEC
MARQUARDT, JOACHIM (18121882) ,
German
  historian and writer on
Roman
  antiquities, was
born
  at Danzig on the 19th of
April
  1812. He studied at Berlin and
Leipzig
 , held various educational appointments from 1833 onwards at Berlin, Danzig and Posen, and became in 1859 head of the gymnasium in Gotha, where he died on the 3oth of November 1882. The dedication of his treatise Historiae equitum romanorum libri quatuor (1841) to Lachmann led to his being recommended to the publisher of W. A. Becker's Handbuch der romischen Alterthumer to continue the
work
  on the death of the author in 1846. It took twenty years to
complete
 , and met with such success that a new edition was soon called for. Finding himself unequal to the task single-handed, Marquardt left the preparation of the first three volumes (Romisches Staatsrecht) to Theodor Mommsen, while he himself contributed vols. iv.vi. (ROmische Staatsverwaltung, 18731878; 2nd ed., 1881-1885, vol. v. by H. Dessau and A. von Domaszewski, vol. vi. by G. Wissowa) and vol. vii.(DasPrivatleben der Romer, 18791882; 2nd ed., by A. Mau, 1886). Its clearness of
style
 , systematic arrangement and abundant references to authorities
ancient
  and
modern
 , will always render it valuable to the student.
