Tacitean studies, centred on the work of Tacitus (c. 56 – c. 120 AD) the Ancient Roman historian, constitute an area of scholarship extending beyond the field of history. The work has traditionally been read for its moral instruction, its narrative, and its inimitable prose style; Tacitus has been (and still is) most influential as a political theorist, outside the field of history. The political lessons taken from his work fall roughly into two camps (as identified by ): the "red Tacitists", who used him to support republican ideals, and the "black Tacitists", those who read his accounts as a lesson in Machiavellian realpolitik.

  • Il tacitismo è lo studio e l'imitazione, dal punto di vista stilistico o ideologico, delle opere dello storico latino Publio Cornelio Tacito. Con il termine tacitismo si indica, in particolare, una corrente storiografica dei secoli XVI-XVII, che fece riferimento alle opere di Tacito per interpretare il proprio tempo e trarne insegnamenti etici e politici. Il tacitismo fu un fenomeno largamente presente nel periodo della Controriforma, per il quale il machiavellismo e la teoria della ragion di Stato, avversati dalla Chiesa di Roma per il loro carattere sovversivo e amorale, venivano celati sotto il riferimento all'opera di Tacito. Il termine tacitismo in questa accezione è una parola d'autore, coniata da Giuseppe Toffanin nell'opera Machiavelli e il tacitismo, pubblicata nel 1921. (it)
