Sobre este artículo
Oxford, U.K.: Oxford University Press, 1979. Classic text presents a detailed commentary by Prof. Chilver on the first two books of Cornelius Tacitus' first major historical work known as the Histories. In these books I & II, Tacitus describes the fall of the first emperor, Galba, and an account of the war in which the second emperor, Otho, was defeated by Vitellius and committed suicide, and of the challenge of the final victor, Vespasian, presented to Vitellius in the latter part of year A.D. 69. Includes emphasis on the major historical themes, analysis of textural and syntactical problems when their solution is vital to establishing Tacitus' meaning. 280 pgs. Illustrated with two maps: the Roman Empire in A.D. 69, and Eastern Gaul, the Alps, and Northern Italy. Prior owner's nameplate pastedown on front endpaper. Dustjacket spine slightly sunned; tiny closed tear on rear upper edge; in mylar. Very minimal shelfwear. Scarce.. First Edition. Hard Cover. Fine/Very Good. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
