This work serves as a biography of Gnaeus Julius Agricola, the Roman general and governor of Britain, detailing his life and achievements, particularly in the context of the Roman conquest of Britain. The book likely highlights themes of military strategy, governance, and the complexities of Roman-British relations during the period of Roman expansion. The opening of "Agricola" presents a contextual introduction to both Tacitus and his subject, Julius Agricola. It outlines Tacitus’s struggles to document the life of his father-in-law amid a backdrop of political oppression and cultural turmoil during the Roman Empire. This introduction sets the tone for a narrative that will delve into Agricola's early years, military career, and lasting legacy, emphasizing his virtues as a leader. Tacitus articulates a sense of reverence for Agricola and hints at the broader significance of his governance in relation to Roman identity and imperial power.
