literal title

The first line has the literal translation of De vita et moribus Iulii Agricolae as On the life and character of Julius Agricola. The latin word de does not mean on, but rather down from, about, or concerning. So perhaps for a literal translation, this should be fixed. Captain Gamma (talk) 18:15, 9 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

It is an English translation, not a transliteration: see Commentarii de Bello Gallico (English: Commentaries on the Gallic War). Naaman Brown (talk) 22:38, 6 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Major Changes

I have extended the summary section to better reflect all aspects of the Agricola's contents. I also streamlined the lead, themes, and style sections by changing the wording to have a more neutral tone. I also added references throughout the article to ensure that the article is balanced and well-sourced. SpencerPaddock (talk) 20:52, 31 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
