Book excerpt: Excerpt from Cornelii Taciti Annalium Ab Excessu Divi Augusti Libri, Vol. 2: The Annals of Tacitus, Edited With Introduction and Notes; Books XI-XVI This portion of the works of Tacitus became thus known to the Italian scholars eighty years earlier than the first six Books of the Annals'; but in other respects the history of its text has been less fortunate. The first Medicean, besides being in itself a better manuscript than the second, was the sole source of the Books contained in it, and had therefore necessarily to be used in printing them; but in the case of the other Books, other more accessible and far more legible manuscripts were exclusively followed, whether for subsequent transcripts or early printed editions, and the Medicean was wholly or comparatively neglected.
