Tacitus On Germany is a book that presents the works of the Roman historian, Cornelius Tacitus, on the Germanic tribes that lived in what is now modern-day Germany during the 1st century AD. The book is edited and translated by Thomas Gordon, a renowned scholar in classical studies. Tacitus On Germany is divided into two main parts. The first part provides a historical overview of the Germanic tribes, their customs, and their way of life. Tacitus describes the Germanic people as fierce warriors who valued bravery and loyalty above all else. He also provides detailed accounts of their religious beliefs, social structure, and political organization.The second part of the book focuses on the Roman encounters with the Germanic tribes. Tacitus describes the Roman military campaigns against the Germanic tribes and provides insights into the Roman perception of the Germanic people. He also discusses the political and cultural implications of the Roman-Germanic interactions.The book is a valuable resource for scholars and students of ancient history, as well as anyone interested in the history and culture of the Germanic people. It provides a comprehensive and detailed account of the Germanic tribes as seen through the eyes of one of the greatest historians of the Roman Empire.But to none else but the Priests is it allowed to exercise correction, or to inflict bonds or stripes. Nor when the Priests do this, is the same considered as a punishment, or arising from the orders of the general, but from the immediate command of the Deity, Him whom they believe to accompany them in war. They therefore carry with them when going to fight, certain images and figures taken out of their holy groves.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
