C. Cornelii Taciti Opera; Volume 1 (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781245882347)

This is Volume 1 of the complete works of C. Cornelius Tacitus. Publius Cornelius Tacitus (c. 56 AD - c. 120 AD) was a senator and a historian of the Roman Empire. The surviving portions of his two major works-the Annals and the Histories-examine the reigns of the Roman emperors Tiberius, Claudius, Nero, and those emperors who reigned in the Year of the Four Emperors (69 AD). These two works provide invaluable insight into the politics, society, and military affairs of the early Roman Empire. Tacitus's writing is known for its conciseness and penetrating insights into human nature. This edition, edited by Carl Hermann Weise, offers a comprehensive view of Tacitus's literary contributions.
