A compelling new translation of Tacitus' Annals, one of the
greatest accounts of ancient Rome, by Cynthia Damon. Tacitus'
Annals recounts the major historical events from the years shortly
before the death of Augustus to the death of Nero in AD 68. With
clarity and vivid intensity Tacitus describes the reign of terror
under the corrupt Tiberius, the great fire of Rome during the time
of Nero and the wars, poisonings, scandals, conspiracies and
murders that were part of imperial life. Despite his claim that the
Annals were written objectively, Tacitus' account is sharply
critical of the emperors' excesses and fearful for the future of
imperial Rome, while also filled with a longing for its past
glories.
