Tacitus’ Agricola is the biography of Gnaeus Julius Agricola, general and governor of Britain, who earns the wrath of the bloodthirsty emperor Domitian.  More than simply a description of one man’s life, the Agricola tackles issues such as freedom and slavery, the challenges of displaying excellence under tyranny, and survivor’s guilt.

Dr. Jonathan Master of Emory’s Classics Department will lead readers through the text.  Fee includes cost of the book.  Pre-registration is required by calling or emailing.
