This research paper: A 7 page research paper that compares Ben Jonson's Sejanus His Fall (1603) to his source material, which is drawn from the Annals by the ancient Roman historian Tacitus. This discussion of both works demonstrates that Jonson was scrupulous in adhering to historical accuracy and also explores the possible reasons why Jonson would make historical accuracy a principal criteria for his work. The writer argues that Jonson adhered to Tacitus so minutely because it offered him a plausible defense in case of political prosecution, as well as offering a means for offering criticism of politics during his era. Bibliography lists 7 sources.
