The Germania, Agricola, and Dialogus De Oratoribus of Tacitus is a book written by George Stuart in 1875. It is a collection of three works by the ancient Roman historian Tacitus, translated into English. The first work, Germania, is a description of the customs and way of life of the Germanic tribes living beyond the borders of the Roman Empire. The second work, Agricola, is a biography of Tacitus' father-in-law, Gnaeus Julius Agricola, who was a governor of Roman Britain. The third work, Dialogus De Oratoribus, is a dialogue between several characters discussing the decline of oratory in Rome. Stuart's translation is considered to be one of the most accurate and readable versions of Tacitus' works in English, and the book is still widely used in academic settings today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
