Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the literary form of Tacitus' 'Agricola', delving into the complex relationship between encomium and history. The author examines how Tacitus' portrayal of the deeds of his father-in-law, Julius Agricola, corresponds to both rhetorical rules for formal encomium and…the narrative conventions of historical writing, ultimately suggesting that 'Agricola' should be recognized as a form of encomiastic biography. By comparing 'Agricola' to other historical and encomiastic works from antiquity, the author provides a nuanced perspective on this fascinating and multifaceted text, shedding light on its literary significance and deepening our understanding of Tacitus' complex approach to writing history. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.
