Book excerpt: Tacitus' account of Nero's principate is an extraordinary piece of historical writing. His graphic narrative (including Annals XV) is one of the highlights of the greatest surviving historian of the Roman Empire. It describes how the imperial system survived Nero's flamboyant and hedonistic tenure as emperor, and includes many famous passages, from the Great Fire of Rome in AD 64 to the city-wide party organised by Nero's praetorian prefect, Tigellinus, in Rome. This edition unlocks the difficulties and complexities of this challenging yet popular text for students and instructors alike. It elucidates the historical context of the work and the literary artistry of the author, as well as explaining grammatical difficulties of the Latin for students. It also includes a comprehensive introduction discussing historical, literary and stylistic issues.

Download or read book Tacitus Annals XVI written by Lee Fratantuono and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2017-11-02 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Book XVI of Tacitus' Annals is the last of the surviving books of the great Roman historian's monumental account of the reigns of the emperors from Tiberius to Nero. The unfinished book offers a stunning portrait of Nero in his last years, a man now free of the restraining influences of his mother Agrippina and tutor Seneca. Annals XVI presents such unforgettable scenes as the spectacle of Petronius' suicide, and the mad quest of Nero to find the gold of the Carthaginian queen Dido. This edition provides a commentary to the entire book, with notes carefully aimed at first-time readers of Tacitus as well as more advanced students. An introduction provides a guide to what we know of Tacitus' life and work, as well as to the reign of Nero and Tacitus' depiction of an empire in transition, of a Rome teetering on the verge of chaos and collapse. A full vocabulary at the end of the volume is a vital resource for students preparing this text for class work or assessment.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Annals of Tacitus: Books XI-XVI. An English Translation With Introduction, Notes and Maps The reception given to my translation of the first six books of the Annals made it impossible for me not to continue the work; and I have now the satisfaction of completing what I hope may be regarded as a faithful version - true to the spirit, and as true as may be to the letter - of what remains to us of the greatest work of the great Roman historian. The intrinsic difficulties which beset a translator of Tacitus can only be appreciated by those who have attempted the task; but, at least, I have not taken it lightly. The translation given in this volume has been many times re-written and revised; and I have given to it all the time that indifferent health has allowed me for serious work during the past five years. The notes, as in the first volume, are intended to put the English reader in possession of all the information needed for the understanding and appreciation of the history; and also to justify to the scholar, where necessary, the interpretation given, or the reading followed, in the translation.
