Annals

Dio had to qualify her leadership with a remark on her intelligence as a woman, he also attributes a bigger build and lower voice to Boudica, almost giving her a masculine quality. Overall Dio’s account lacks details of Boudica’s actions and motives for fighting the Romans and merely judges her appearance. Ultimately Dio defines Boudica using the Classical stereotypes of Celts and attempts to justify her as a leader by masculinising her. On the contrary, Tacitus provides an account of Boudica rich in detail of her motives and filled with carefully selected facts that work to make a political statement. Tacitus writes only due to his interest in Romans, again similar to Dio, he is not interested in the Celts. In two of his writings, the Annals and the Agricola, Tacitus depicts Boudica and her rebellion against the Romans. In the Agricola Tacitus identifies a Roman fort by calling it ‘the stronghold of [the Celts] enslavement’ , which illustrates Tacitus’s belief that Roman officials abused their power. Tacitus uses the tale of Boudica as a platform to discuss democracy and liberty by showing the Iceni rebellion against the Romans as a honourable act of defiance. Tacitus provides details of the events preceding Boudica and the Iceni’s rebellion against Roman forces. Prasuttagus, Boudica’s partner, was a client-king of the Iceni for the Roman emperor and as such a Roman citizen; before his death he designated ‘the emperor [as] his heir along with his two daughters’ .…

During the 11th century in Germany, three monks each wrote a chronicle on the events of the papacy, their monastery, and the Holy Roman Emperors during their lives.

pirates (“Mary Celeste”). This theory is false because there was no blood found on the ship and the alcohol cargo and the crew members’ belongings were found undisturbed (“Mary Celeste”). Another theory is that the entire crew was swept overboard and eaten by sharks (“Mary Celeste – Mary Celeste, the Most Intriguing and Enduring Mystery in the Annals of Maritime History”).

People don't have to work so hard anymore since they already have computers. Blackwell thinks this is a good thing, but he said he would never…

What army was responsible for the fall of the Roman Empire? Could a dose of political corruptness have also been a reason for the fall? There…
