This book collects A.J. Woodman's writings on Tacitus over the past twenty-five years, focusing almost exclusively on the \u003cem\u003eAnnals\u003c\/em\u003e. Woodman offers new or different interpretations of some of the most famous passages in the work, and argues that, through familiarity, generations of scholars have misread significant passages, thereby gaining and perpetuating a distorted view of what Tacitus had to say, especially about Tiberius. His iconoclastic insights will have major implications for those who wish to use the \u003cem\u003eAnnals\u003c\/em\u003e as a source for what happened in the first century AD.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e A.
