Book excerpt: Described by two prominent twentieth century leftist academics as one of the "most dangerous books ever written," Roman historian Tacitus's 98 AD work Germania is credited with almost single-handedly creating modern German nationalism after the manuscript's rediscovery in 1462. Originally titled "On the Origin and Situation of the Germanic Peoples" (De Origine et situ Germanorum), it provides a vivid survey of the physical, cultural, and behavioral characteristics of the German people in what the Romans called Germania Magna-"Greater Germany"-that area east of the Rhine River. Germania begins with a description of the lands, laws, and customs of the Germanic people, and then moves on to detailed descriptions of the individual tribes all the way up to the Baltic Sea. This includes Tacitus's famous description of the Germans as a "pure and unmixed race" with Nordic racial characteristics. It then describes the Germanic systems of government, religion, the egalitarian status of women in German society, and even a form of folk assembly, or parliament, at which important decisions were made by common vote and consensus, among many other things. All copies of Germania were lost during the Middle Ages and the work was forgotten until a single manuscript was rediscovered. At that time, most of Germany was known as the Holy Roman Empire, and the word "Germani" was almost never used. The book's rediscovery and distribution directly led to the widespread use of that word once again, and it was first used in a nationalist sense in 1471 during a crusade against the invading Turks. In 1956, Jewish historian Arnaldo Momigliano, professor at University College, London, described Germania as "among the most dangerous books ever written," and in 2008, professor Christopher Krebs, assistant professor of Classics at Harvard produced a separate book on the topic called A Most Dangerous Book: Tacitus's Germania from the Roman Empire to the Third Reich, in which he claimed that that all top Nazis were familiar with the work, including racial scientist Hans F.K. Gunther. The second work in this book, Agricola, originally titled "On the life and character of Julius Agricola" (De vita et moribus Iulii Agricolae) is a biographical work which tells the story of the author's father-in-law, Gnaeus Julius Agricola, one of the most prominent Roman generals who took part in the final conquest of Britain. It includes many valuable comments about the racial characteristics of the pre-Roman British people and society, as well as fascinating details of the conquest of Britain and of how Agricola served as governor of the new province.

Book excerpt: This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1916 edition. Excerpt: ... NOTES Chapter 1. The boundaries of Germany; the courses of the Rhine and the Danube. 1. Germania omnis: Germany as a whole; Tacitus echoes the opening words of Caesar's Bellum Gallicum. Germany proper is here considered as a geographical unit apart from the Roman provinces of Upper and Lower Germany, which were situated on the left bank of the Rhine. -- Raetisque et Pannoniis: these nouns, connected by et, stand in close relation as the second member of the coordinate series. The Raeti inhabited Eastern Switzerland, the Tyrol, and Southern Bavaria. The western boundary of Pannonia lay somewhat to the west of Vienna; on the north and the east the province was bordered by the Danube. Between Raetia and Pannonia lay Noricum, which Tacitus here leaves unmentioned. 2. Sarmatis: peoples containing Slavic elements and also possessing racial affinity with the Medes and Persians; their domain in general comprised the steppes of Russia north of the Black Sea and the Caucasus Mountains. One tribe, the Iazyges, occupied at this time that part of Hungary that lies between the Danube and the Theiss. -- Dacisque: a Thracian stock which, a decade before the Germania was written, had inflicted severe defeats on the armies of Domitian; Transylvania and adjacent regions were included in Dacian territory. -- mutuo metu aut montibus: a striking example of the combination of concrete and abstract ideas; cf. the note on Agricola 25. 8. This usage is favored especially by Tacitus and the poets of the Empire; one of the earliest instances in Latin is Plautus, Rudens 436: nostro ilium puteum periclo et ferramentis fodimus (' I dug that well with peril to myself and with iron tools '). The mountains referred to are the Carpathians. 3. Oceanus: the North Sea and...
