About the book

Tacitus's Annals is one of the most important surviving histories of the early Roman Empire. The work covers the reigns of emperors including Tiberius, Claudius and Nero, examining court intrigue, political repression and the changing relationship between emperor and Senate. Tacitus's sharp psychological portraits and sceptical view of power make the work a classic of historical writing.
