Summary
The Introduction and notes here given are mainly abridged from the corresponding portion of the larger edition published last year; to which, in the Chapter on Syntax and Style, references throughout are made, to assist any teachers or students who may desire to supplement the present from the former work.
In a few instances, in this edition, a different text is given, chiefly in accordance with changes in the fourth edition of Halm (1883). Opportunity has also been taken of amending some of the explanations in the notes.
The references here given are almost wholly restricted to the books of Tacitus contained in this volume, and to such other ancient authors or modern works as are well known to schoolboys.
I have also generally in this edition omitted to specify the editors or other writers to whom I am indebted, in the hope that it will be generally understood that the acknowledgments of obligation, freely made throughout the larger volume, are indirectly applicable here.
