From the dignified grace of Augustus to the cruel debauchery of Nero, this history chronicles all the vices and virtues of the first twelve rulers of Imperial Rome. "The Twelve Caesars" was written based on the information of eyewitnesses and public records. It conveys a very accurate picture of court life in Rome and contains some of the raciest and most salacious material to be found in all of ancient literature. The writing is clear, simple and easy to understand, and the numerous anecdotes of juicy scandal, bitter court intrigue and murderous brigandage easily hold their own against the most spirited content of today's tabloids. The biographies and periods of reign are: Julius Caesar (dictatorship: 46 B.C. - 44 B.C.), Augustus (31 B.C. - A.D. 14), Tiberius (14 - 37), Caligula (37 - 41), Claudius (41 - 54), Nero (54 - 68), Otho (68 - 69), Galba (69), Vitellius (69), Vespasian (69 - 79), Titus (79 - 81) and Domitian (87 - 96). Like no other work before or since, "The Twelve Caesars" has continued to shock, titillate and entertain audiences for 2,000 years. |
