About Tacitus and the Tacitean Tradition (Princeton Legacy Library, 252)

In this volume distinguished scholars from both sides of the Atlantic explore the work of Tacitus in its historical and literary context and also show how his text was interpreted in the sixteenth through eighteenth centuries. Discussed here, for example, are the ways predilections of a particular age color one’s reading of a complex author and why a reexamination of these influences is necessary to understand both the author and those who have interpreted him. All of the essays were first prepared for a colloquium on Tacitus held at Princeton University in March 1990. The resulting volume is dedicated to the memory of the great Tacitean scholar Sir Ronald Syme.The contributors are G. W. Bowersock ( and “Tacitus and the Province of Asia and “), T. J. Luce ( and “Reading and Response in the Dialogus and “), Elizabeth Keitel ( and “Speech and Narrative in Histories 4 and “), Christopher Pelling ( and “Tacitus and Germanicus and “), Judith Ginsburg ( and ” In maiores certamina : Past and Present in the Annals and “), A. J. Woodman ( and “Amateur Dramatics at the Court of Nero and “), Mark Morford ( and “Tacitean Prudentia and the Doctrines of Justus Lipsius and “), Donald R. Kelley ( and ” Tacitus Noster : The Germania in the Renaissance and Reformation and “), and Howard D. Weinbrot ( and “Politics, Taste, and National Some Uses of Tacitism in Eighteenth-Century Britain and “).Originally published in 1993.The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press.
