Tacitean Visual Narrative
Combining the studies of modern film, traditional narratology, and Roman art, this interdisciplinary work explores the complex and highly visual techniques of Tacitus’ Annales. The volume opens with a discussion of current research in narratology, as applied to Roman historians.
