C. Cornelii Taciti Germania, Agricola, Et De Oratibus Dialogus

By Charles Knapp Dillaway and Cornelius Tacitus

This volume presents three key works by the Roman historian Tacitus: Germania, Agricola, and De Oratibus Dialogus. Germania offers a detailed ethnographic study of the Germanic tribes, providing insights into their customs, social structures, and geography, which profoundly influenced subsequent understandings of early European history. Agricola is a biographical tribute to Tacitus's father-in-law, Gnaeus Julius Agricola, a Roman general, and governor of Britain, chronicling his military campaigns and administrative achievements. The De Oratibus Dialogus explores the art of rhetoric and the decline of oratory in Roman society, engaging with the theories and practices of public speaking during the Roman Empire.

This collection offers valuable primary source material for students and scholars interested in Roman history, classical literature, and the art of rhetoric, shedding light on the political, social, and cultural aspects of the Roman world.
