And so Rhadamistus having attempted the fortified walls in vain or with loss, began a blockade, and, finding that his assaults were despised, tried to bribe the rapacity of the camp-prefect. Narbon Gaul, for its special reverence of the Senate, received a privilege. At the same time those of the centurions and tribunes who pitied the lot of Britannicus were removed, some on false pretexts, others by way of a seeming compliment. Next the emperor proposed to grant immunity from taxation to the people of Cos, and he dwelt much on their antiquity. At last he collected an army, drove out the king of the Dandaridae, and possessed himself of his dominions. His pleading too procured for the colony of Bononia, which had been ruined by a fire, a subvention of ten million sesterces. It was accounted a portent that every order of magistrates had had its number reduced, a quaestor, an aedile, a tribune, a praetor and consul having died within a few months. Cassius was at that time pre-eminent for legal learning. The Annals was Tacitus' final work and provides a key source for modern understanding of the history of the Roman Empire from the beginning of the reign of Tiberius in AD 14 to the end of the reign of Nero, in AD 68. It was noted by learned men, that no previous example of adoption into the patrician family of the Claudii was to be found; and that from Attus Clausus there had been one unbroken line.

It was charged on Lepida that she had made attempts on the Emperor's consort by magical incantations, and was disturbing the peace of Italy by an imperfect control of her troops of slaves in Calabria. Pallas again selected Agrippina for special commendation because she would bring with her Germanicus's grandson, who was thoroughly worthy of imperial rank, the scion of a noble house and a link to unite the descendants of the Claudian family.

Moved by these considerations, Claudius wrote to Eunones that Mithridates had certainly merited an extreme and exemplary penalty, which he was not wanting in power to inflict, but it had been the principle of his ancestors to show as much forbearance to a suppliant as they showed persistence against a foe. How again could there be a more virtuous relief for the mind of an imperial censor than the taking of a wife to share his prosperity and his troubles, to whom he might intrust his inmost thoughts and the care of his young children, unused as he was to luxury and pleasure, and wont from his earliest youth to obey the laws.

On the other hand it was argued that it would be undertaking a war in a country without roads, on a harbourless sea, against warlike kings and wandering tribes, on a barren soil; that a weary disgust would come of tardy movements, and perils of precipitancy; that the glory of victory would be small, while much disgrace would ensue on defeat. This enraged the enemy, who were stung with shame at the prospect of falling under the dominion of a woman. His father, Camillus, had raised an armed insurrection in Dalmatia, and the emperor in again sparing a hostile family sought the credit of clemency. But his will was not publicly read, as the preference of the stepson to the son might provoke a sense of wrong and angry feeling in the popular mind. There were some who rushed out of the Senate passionately protesting that if the emperor hesitated, they would use violence. in Lolliam mittitur tribunus, a quo ad mortem adigeretur. His wife followed him with his little children, and filled every place with her wailings. He wrote instructions to Publius Atellius Hister, governor of Pannonia, that he was to have his legions, with some picked auxiliaries from the province itself, encamped on the riverbank, as a support to the conquered and a terror to the conqueror, who might otherwise, in the elation of success, disturb also the peace of our empire. Gradually forsaken by the very slaves who waited on him, he turned into ridicule the ill-timed attentions of his stepmother, perceiving their insincerity. After this, Mithridates was given up and brought to Rome by Junius Cilo, the procurator of Pontus. The deed would be betrayed by one that was sudden and instantaneous, while if she chose a slow and lingering poison, there was a fear that Claudius, when near his end, might, on detecting the treachery, return to his love for his son. Lest it might be supposed that he had stumbled inadvertently into this opinion, its principle was also secured by a decree of the Senate on a more complete and ample scale than before. Although a certain Carenes pressed them to come and promised easy success if they hastened their arrival, they did not make for Mesopotamia, which was close to them, but, by a long detour, for Armenia, then ill-suited to their movements, as winter was beginning. Lepida indeed as the daughter of the younger Antonia, as the grandniece of Augustus, the cousin of Agrippina, and sister of her husband Cneius, thought herself of equally high rank.

Kings' sons were given as hostages, in order that when Parthia was tired of home rule, it might fall back on the emperor and the Senate, and receive from them a better sovereign, familiar with Roman habits.". These were divided into two columns; and those who marched to the left cut off the plunderers, just on their return, after a riotous enjoyment of their spoil, when they were heavy with sleep. By the centurion's departure the camp prefect was released, so to say, from surveillance; and he now urged Mithridates to conclude a treaty. When the sight was over, the outlet of the water was opened. ist der bedeutendste antike Geschichtsschreiber. Agrippina, to show her power even to the allied nations, procured the despatch of a colony of veterans to the chief town of the Ubii, where she was born. et pomerium urbis auxit Caesar, more prisco, quo iis qui protulere imperium etiam terminos urbis propagare datur. The Senate was then assembled, and speeches were delivered full of pompous eulogy on the capture of Caractacus. The flower of their youth, picked out for war, invaded her kingdom. My punishment would be followed by oblivion, whereas, if you save my life, I shall be an everlasting memorial of your clemency." Claudius assured them that Pallas was content with the honour, and that he limited himself to his former poverty. What wonder if I parted with them reluctantly? 25. Here was a starting point for an accuser. When this had been done, there was not a person so void of pity as not to feel keen sorrow at the position of Britannicus. On the accusation of Tarquitius Priscus, she ruined Statilius Taurus, who was famous for his wealth, and at whose gardens she cast a greedy eye. The boundaries now fixed by Claudius may be easily recognized, as they are specified in the public records. Upon this, Claudius, without hearing the accused, first reminded the Senate of her illustrious rank, that the sister of Lucius Volusius was her mother, Cotta Messalinus her granduncle, Memmius Regulus formerly her husband (for of her marriage to Caius Caesar he purposely said nothing), and then added that she had mischievous designs on the State, and must have the means of crime taken from her. As Mithridates wavered, and suspected the intentions of the camp-prefect, because he had seduced one of the king's concubines and was reputed a man who could be bribed into any wickedness, Casperius meantime went to Pharasmanes, and required of him that the Iberians should raise the blockade. On this occasion he who was applying the knot pretended that it had fallen off, and suddenly seizing the knees of Mithridates flung him to the ground. Isdem temporibus in superiore Germania trepidatum adventu Chattorum latrocinia agitantium. And yet in past days Italy used to send supplies for the legions into distant provinces, and even now it is not a barren soil which causes distress. Next the emperor, in a speech, commended all who, from their limited means, voluntarily retired from the Senatorian order, while those were degraded from it who, by retaining their seats, added effrontery to poverty. Overcome by these arguments, the emperor preferred Domitius to his own son, though he was but two years older, and made a speech in the senate, the same in substance as the representations of his freedman. And so Zorsines, having long considered whether he should still have regard to the fallen fortunes of Mithridates or to the kingdom of his fathers, and having at last preferred his country's interests, gave hostages and prostrated himself before the emperor's image, to the great glory of the Roman army, which all men knew to have come after a bloodless victory within three days' march of the river Tanais. The Brigantes indeed, when a few who were beginning hostilities had been slain and the rest pardoned, settled down quietly; but on the Silures neither terror nor mercy had the least effect; they persisted in war and could be quelled only by legions encamped in their country. When this had been done, there was not a person so void of pity as not to feel keen sorrow at the position of Britannicus. He was however very intimate with Claudius, who, when in private life, used to beguile the dullness of his leisure with the society of jesters. Tarquitius was however expelled from the Senate, a point which the senators carried, out of hatred for the accuser, notwithstanding the intrigues of Agrippina. exim Claudius inaudita rea multa de claritudine eius apud senatum praefatus, sorore L.

Chr.) A decree of the Senate was then passed for the expulsion of the astrologers from Italy, stringent but ineffectual. und brechen dann unvermittelt ab. By Tacitus Written 109 A.C.E. To this view they assented, but that they might not be thought to have approved the crime and receive contrary orders from the emperor, envoys were sent to Pharasmanes, requiring him to withdraw from Armenian territory and remove his son. So their tribute was remitted for five years. While he was treated by him like a son, with excessive kindness, he lured the nobles of Armenia into revolutionary schemes, without the knowledge of Mithridates, who was actually loading him with honours. The two peoples had long been at feud, and now less than ever restrained their enmity, from contempt of their rulers. Mag. The profession of the soldier is forgotten in a quiet period, and peace reduces the enterprising and indolent to an equality. His fame had spread thence, and travelled to the neighbouring islands and provinces, and was actually celebrated in Italy. 27. Vitellius, having first put forward these arguments in a conciliatory speech, and met with decided acquiescence from the Senate, began afresh to point out, that, as they all recommended the emperor's marriage, they ought to select a lady conspicuous for noble rank and purity, herself too the mother of children. nec Claudius, quamquam saepe oratus, arma certantibus barbaris interposuit, tutum Vannio perfugium promittens, si pelleretur; scripsitque Palpellio Histro, qui Pannoniam praesidebat, legionem ipsaque e provincia lecta auxilia pro ripa componere, subsidio victis et terrorem adversus victores, ne fortuna elati nostram quoque pacem turbarent. The column which took the right-hand and the shorter route, inflicted greater loss on the enemy who met them, and ventured on a battle. Next day they sent an embassy asking mercy for the freeborn, and offering ten thousand slaves. Vologeses was king of the Parthians; on the mother's side, he was the offspring of a Greek concubine, and he obtained the throne by the retirement of his brothers. He wrote instructions to Publius Atellius Hister, governor of Pannonia, that he was to have his legions, with some picked auxiliaries from the province itself, encamped on the riverbank, as a support to the conquered and a terror to the conqueror, who might otherwise, in the elation of success, disturb also the peace of our empire. Meanwhile, a stepmother's treacherous schemes were convulsing the whole imperial house, with far greater disgrace than would have resulted from his concealment of the profligacy of the emperor's former wife. adnotabant periti nullam antehac adoptionem inter patricios Claudios reperiri, eosque ab Atto Clauso continuos duravisse. . There is seldom safety for the unfortunate, and Caractacus, seeking the protection of Cartimandua, queen of the Brigantes, was put in chains and delivered up to the conquerors, nine years after the beginning of the war in Britain. Bound to Agrippina, first as the promoter of her marriage, then as her paramour, he still urged Claudius to think of the interests of the State, and to provide some support for the tender years of Britannicus. Narbon Gaul, for its special reverence of the Senate, received a privilege. After this Gotarzes fell ill and died, and Vonones, who then ruled the Medes, was summoned to the throne. The Annals has been divided into the following sections: Book I [150k] Book II [142k] Book III [126k] Book IV [136k] Book V [22k] Book VI [101k] Book XI [69k] Book XII [106k] Book XIII [107k] Claudius named them one by one, with the periods in which they had respectively flourished. Taurus, no longer able to endure a false accusation and an undeserved humiliation, put a violent end to his life before the Senate's decision was pronounced. The destruction of Uspe struck terror into the rest of the people, who thought safety impossible when they saw how armies and ramparts, heights and difficult positions, rivers and cities, alike yielded to their foe. 382 Buch XI. A law was passed, adopting him into the Claudian family with the name of Nero. The Roman forum and the Capitol were not, it was supposed, added to the city by Romulus, but by Titus Tatius.

But open violence, he said, must be deferred; artful measures, which might crush him unawares, were better. His bowels too were relieved, and this seemed to have saved him. Still he spared his eyes the seeing them slain before his face. 22. On the advance of the Parthians, the Iberians dispersed without a battle, and the Armenian cities, Artaxata and Tigranocerta, submitted to the yoke. Claudius without further delay presented himself in the forum to their congratulations; then entering the Senate, he asked from them a decree which should decide that for the future marriages between uncles and brothers' daughters should be legal. He then summoned those at whose suggestion a king had been sought from Rome, and having encamped at Zeugma where the river was most easily fordable and awaited the arrival of the chief men of Parthia and of Acbarus, king of the Arabs, he reminded Meherdates that the impulsive enthusiasm of barbarians soon flags from delay or even changes into treachery, and that therefore he should urge on his enterprise. Die Annalen, sein letztes und wichtigstes Werk, schildern die römische Geschichte vom Tod des Augustus (14 n. Meanwhile Mithridates, finding arms an unavailing resource, considered on whose mercy he was to throw himself. 29. 12 Tacitus verfasste neben dem Geschichtswerk der Annalen (bzw.

The army then marched against the Silures, a naturally fierce people and now full of confidence in the might of Caractacus, who by many an indecisive and many a successful battle had raised himself far above all the other generals of the Britons.
