Publisher's Synopsis

""Tacitus and Bracciolini: The Annals Forged in the XVth Century"" is a book written by John Wilson Ross that examines the controversial theory that the famous historical work ""The Annals"" by Tacitus was actually forged by the Italian humanist Poggio Bracciolini in the 15th century. The book provides a detailed analysis of the evidence for and against this theory, drawing on a wide range of historical and literary sources. It also explores the broader implications of the alleged forgery, including its impact on our understanding of ancient Rome and the development of modern historiography. Overall, ""Tacitus and Bracciolini"" is a fascinating and thought-provoking read for anyone interested in the history of scholarship and the nature of historical truth.""This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
