　　Undeniably one of Rome's most important historians, Tacitus

was also one of its most gifted. The Agricola is both a

portrait of Julius Agricola-the most famous governor of Roman

Britain and Tacitus's respected father-in-law-and the first known

detailed portrayal of the British Isles. In the Germania,

Tacitus focuses on the warlike German tribes beyond the Rhine,

often comparing the behavior of "barbarian" peoples favorably with

the decadence and corruption of Imperial Rome.
