| 1 | Dialogue on Orators (Unabridged) | Tacitus, Alfred John Church - translator & William Jackson Brodribb - translator |
| In Dialogue on Orators, Tacitus presents a conversation about the art and philosophy of rhetoric. Four characters discuss the merits and pitfalls of oration and poetry, debating one another’s point of view. With this text, Tacitus follows in the tradition and structure of Cicero, the great orator. It marks a distinct change in style from Tacitus’ longform historical works, Germania and Agricola. |
