His biography of his father-in-law, governor of Britain in the years AD 77-84, is a literary masterpiece: it combines penetrating political history with gripping military narrative and throughout poses the question (still very much alive today) of how one should live one's life under a tyranny. This is the first commentary in English on the Agricola for almost half a century: in keeping with the aims of the series, particular attention is paid to the understanding of Tacitus' Latin, but a whole range of generic, historical, textual and narrative topics is covered, and it will be suitable for advanced undergraduates and graduate students as well as scholars. 'Tacitus Agricola' remains a key text for anyone with an interest in Roman Britain as well as ancient biography. 600 10 $a Agricola, Gnaeus Julius, $d 40-93. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n50059480 600 10 $a Tacitus, Cornelius. $t Agricola. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n81137520 650 0 $a Statesmen $z Rome $v Early works to 1800. $v Early works to 1800. 600 17 $a Agricola, Gnaeus Julius, $d 40-93. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00018594 650 7 $a Statesmen. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01131990 651 7 $a Rome (Empire) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204885 600 14 $a Agricola, Cnæus Julius $q (Cn.
