Anderson?s edition, first published in 1938, was designed to replace that of Furneaux and to take particular account of the light thrown by archaeology on Tacitus? account of the Germanic peoples. The commentary gives comprehensive cover of matters historical, archaeological and linguistic. It is so thorough an edition that it has never been replaced. For a number of years it has been unavailable to students, and it appears here in paperback for the first time. / CONTENTS INTRODUCTION I. The Literary Character and the Purpose of the Work II.
