^{page no 1 note 1} No single work lists all writings on Tacitus (that would be an immense task), but there are many helpful bibliographies and reasoned assessments. The most valuable recent survey is by Borzsák, S. in his article ‘P. Cornelius Tacitus’ in Pauly— Wissowa, Real-Encyclopädie, Suppl. 11, 373–512 Google Scholar (also available separately, Stuttgart, 1968). Borzsák gives an account of earlier bibliographies (374-5). See also the ‘conspectus librorum’ in Koestermann’s, E. editions of the minor works and Annals (Leipzig, 1962 Google Scholar and 1960 respectively), Syme, R., Tacitus (Oxford, 1958), 809ff.Google Scholar, and McDonald’s, A. H. judicious sketch of work on the Roman historians in Fifty Years and Twelve of Classical Scholarship (Oxford, 1968)Google Scholar.

^{page no 1 note 2} This book demands special comment. It is as exciting as it is exasperating, learned and original, yet perverse and idiosyncratic, illuminated by insight of a rare order, but clouded by obsessive preconceptions, both highly informative and highly misleading. It still dominates over the study of Tacitus a decade and more after its publication, and it will long continue to do so. Other important work by Syme, is now conveniently available in the collection of his papers entitled Ten Studies in Tacitus (Oxford, 1970)Google Scholar.
