This collection of seminal and lively articles on the Roman
historian of the early empire, Tacitus, is written by a wide range
of established experts in the field. Tacitus is best known for his
extraordinary historical narratives on the Roman emperors from
Tiberius to Nero and the civil wars which followed the death of
Nero in AD 68. The articles are designed to reflect the main trends
in scholarship on Tacitus, particularly as they have developed over
the last century, and to situate this Roman author in his literary
and historical context. Beginning with a comprehensive
introduction, Ash sets the selected scholarship in context and
discusses the history of modern critical responses to Tacitus.
Covering the whole of Tacitus' works (the Agricola, Germania,
Dialogus, as well as the historical narratives, the Histories and
the Annals), this volume also includes articles published in
English for the very first time.
