Forlagsbeskrivelse af Annals af Tacitus
Offers a translation of one of the greatest accounts of ancient Rome. This title recounts the major historical events from the years shortly before the death of Augustus to the death of Nero in AD 68. 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.
