Tacitus

    January 1, 1954 – January 1, 0120

    Publius Cornelius Tacitus was a Roman senator and historian writing in the later Silver Age of Latin literature. His surviving works examine the reigns of emperors from the death of Augustus up to the First Jewish-Roman War. Tacitus's writing is distinguished by its boldness and sharpness, with a compact and sometimes unconventional use of Latin. He also explored oratory, the origins of the Germanic peoples, and the life of his father-in-law.
