A lecturer at the University of Bristol, Pitman published this
edition of Tacitus' Annals in Oxford in 1912. The title of the work
derives from Tacitus' style of history, which he dealt with on a
year-by-year basis. Annals covered the reigns of four Roman
emperors, beginning after the death of Augustus. Of the 16 original
books covering a period of 54 years, much of what Tacitus wrote has
not survived. This edition of Annals includes four books: the
incomplete Book 5 and Book 6, which cover the final years and death
of Tiberius, and Books 11 and 12 which cover the end of the reign
of Claudius. (Books 7 to 10 are missing.) The text and introduction
are from the 1894 edition by Henry Furneaux; Pitman's intention is
'to serve the needs of students requiring a less copious and
advanced commentary' than that supplied by Furneaux.
