Extractions: Tacitus and his manuscripts There are quite a number of misleading statements about this subject circulating on the internet, including the curious idea that Tacitus was forged in the 14th century by Poggio Bracciolini. This page has been written to place the facts at the disposal of those interested, and references to more information. The intended audience is the interested layman. All this material is derived from the sources listed. I've also added a short paragraph on the allegations that Tacitus' works were forged. The works of Tacitus that have come down to us are as follows: Annales Minor Works The titles Annales and Historiae are 16th century, as the manuscripts present both works under the title Ab excessu divi Augusti Historiae 1-5 appear as books 17-21 in the MS. It is generally accepted "that Tacitus completed the Historiae in 14 books, and then wrote 16 books Ab excessu Divi Augusti , but did not complete the prolegomenary and supplemental works which he had projected. The result, therefore, was two historical works which were subsequently combined, possibly by the author but more probably by a later editor, into a single sequence of 30 books numbered consecutively. The existence of such a consolidated edition is implied in Jerome's oft-quoted reference ( Comm. ad Zach

Extractions: TACITUS FRAGMENT 2: THE ANTI-ROMAN MOVEMENT OF THE CHRISTIANI AND THE NAZOREANS Eric Laupot Vigiliae Christianae 54, no. 3 (2000) 233-47 ABSTRACT There is little consensus as to the historical nature of the sect identified by Tacitus in Annales 15.44 as the Christiani. Nor is there any firm consensus on the authenticity and historicity of all of that fragment known as Tacitus fragment 2 (= Sulpicius Severus Chronica 2.30.6-7), whose references to Christiani are widely suspected of being later Christian interpolations. Much of this fragment is thought, nevertheless, to be from the lost portion of the fifth book of Tacitus Historiae A solution can be found to both of these problems by adducing from fragment 2 new evidence indicating that this fragment indeed represents a primary historical source. This new evidence takes the form of the discovery of a significant statistical relationship among the following three words: (1) The metaphor stirps (branch, descendants) used to describe the Christiani in fragment 2, (2) and (3)

Extractions: During the consulship of Lucius Caesennius Paetus and Publius Petronius Turpilianus [AD 60-61], a dreadful calamity befell the army in Britain. Aulus Didius, as has been mentioned, aimed at no extension of territory, content with maintaining the conquests already made. Veranius, who succeeded him, did little more: he made a few incursions into the country of the Silures, and was hindered by death from prosecuting the war with vigour. He had been respected, during his life, for the severity of his manners; in his end, the mark fell off, and his last will discovered the low ambition of a servile flatterer, who, in those moments, could offer incense to Nero, and add, with vain ostentation, that if he lived two years, it was his design to make the whole island obedient to the authority of the prince. Paulinus Suetonius succeeded to the command; an officer of distinguished merit. To be compared with Corbulo was his ambition. His military talents gave him pretensions, and the voice of the people, who never leave exalted merit without a rival, raised him to the highest eminence. By subduing the mutinous spirit of the Britons he hoped to equal the brilliant success of Corbulo in Armenia. With this view, he resolved to subdue the isle of Mona; a place in habited by a warlike people, and a common refuge for all the discontented Britons. In order to facilitate his approach to a difficult and deceitful shore, he ordered a number of flat-bottomed boats to be constructed. In these he wafted over the infantry, while the cavalry, partly by fording over the shallows, and partly by swimming their horses, advanced to gain a footing on the island.

http://www.us-israel.org/jsource/History/tacitus.html

Extractions: Tacitus on the Jews (c. 110 C.E.) Quite different is their faith about things divine. The Egyptians worship many animals and images of monstrous form; the Jews have purely mental conceptions of Deity, as one in essence. They call those profane who make representations of God in human shape out of perishable materials. They believe that Being to be supreme and eternal, neither capable of representation, nor of decay. They therefore do not allow any images to stand in their cities, much less in their temples. This flattery is not paid to their kings, nor this honor to our Emperors. From the fact, however, that their priests used to chant to the music of flutes and cymbals, and to wear garlands of ivy, and that a golden vine was found in the temple, some have thought that they worshiped father Liber, the conqueror of the East, though their institutions do not by any means harmonize with the theory; for Liber established a festive and cheerful worship, while the Jewish religion is tasteless and mean.

Literature Roman Literature: Tacitus Latin Language Publius or Gaius Cornelius Tacitus (born around AD 56 - died around AD 120), was a Roman historian. Born into a wealthy family living in Gaul. He was a friend of Pliny the Younger and married the daughter of Cnaeus Julius Agricola, who governed in Roman Britain . Tacitus received the best education available to a Roman from a good wealthy family. Public speaking skills, oratory and debate, which were considered the most important areas of study for a young man destined for a career in imperial service or senatorial office. Tacitus was a senator during the reign of Domitian. In AD 97 he was appointed substitute consul under Nerva, and in AD 112-113 he held the highest civilian governorship, that of the Roman province of Asia in Western Anatolia. Tacitus objected to great concentration of power in the hands of the early emperors. Though he hated imperial power and in his writings tries to paint every emperor as a corrupt despot, he hated civil war and anarchy even more. He had a particularly heavy bias against the emperor Tiberius, whom he portrayed as a sinister and cruel emperor, purging his opponents from the Senate by having them tried for treason and executed. He showed scorn for Claudius and Nero, and even his writings about Augustus contained some belittling and snide remarks. His writing is full of tales of corruption, government scandal, and innocent people being destroyed or having their good names ruined because of the emperors lust for power. It was Tacitus belief that the emperor had so much power in his hands that no man could occupy the throne without being corrupted by that power.

Extractions: Tacitus (275 - 276) and Florianus (276) Back Next There's a lovely story about the accession of Tacitus; unfortunately, it's patently false. In fact, we know far more about what ISN'T true about him than what is. About his half-brother, Florianus, we know even less, only that he "did nothing worth remembering" (Eutropius), and that he managed a remarkable imitation of that other incredibly insignificant Imperial brother, Quintillus. Tacitus Antoninianus About this coin: Tacitus came to power some time after the murder of Aurelian. How long after is not clear. The official story was that, in an uncharacteristic show of devotion, the army asked the Senate to select the new emperor. After a period of careful deliberation lasting nearly two months, they selected Tacitus, a wealthy and respected elderly senator of noble birth, the descendant and namesake of the famous Roman historian of the same name. A lovely story; unfortunately, it's a pure fabrication. Though not much is known about his origins, he was not of noble birth, nor was he particularly wealthy. The time available for the "careful deliberation" was far shorter than the claimed six to eight weeks, and it's also unlikely that he was anywhere near the 75 years of age that the official story claims. More likely, he was simply the next in a long line of military men selected by the army and forced upon the Senate. Be that as it may, the Senate did seem to like him better than most of his predecessors, and they voted him the somewhat wishful title of "Restorer of the Republic".

He wrote at least 16 books, but books 7-10 and parts of books 5, 6, 11 and 16 are missing. Book 6 ends with the death of Tiberius and books 7-12 presumably covered the reigns of Caligula and Claudius . The remaining books cover the reign of Nero , perhaps until his death in June or until the end of that year, to connect with the Histories . The second half of book 16 is missing. We do not know whether Tacitus completed the work or whether he wrote any further associated books. Of the Histories only the first four books and 26 chapters of the fifth book have survived, covering the year and the first part of . The work is believed to have continued up to the death of Domitian on September 18 Tacitus also wrote three shorter works: the Agricola , a biography of his father-in-law Gnaeus Julius Agricola ; the Germania ; and the Dialogus Tacitus was primarily concerned with the balance of power between the Roman senate and the Roman Emperors .
