Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Epigraphic Commentary on Suetonius's Life of Tiberius The purpose of this thesis is to collect such inscriptions as may either confirm or refute the statements of Suetonius in his Life of Tiberius, and such as may prove of general interest in rela tion to that work. So far as actual historical records are con cerned, I find that Suetonius rarely makes a mistake, but the general unfavorable impression that he gives of the attitude of the Roman world'towards Tiberius is not confirmed by inscrip tions. Although some of the epigraphic records that survive proved an unexpected joy, e. G. That of the sheath and sword of Tiberius found at Mainz, on the other hand there was disap pointment in finding no memorials, e. G. Of Tiberius from Rhodes or Capri, and none of Piso from Syria.

This book was released on 2016-11-11 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Epigraphic Commentary on Suetonius's Life of Gaius Caligula It is hoped that this dissertation will prove to be of some value both from the epigraphic and from the historical point of view, and that it will help to demonstrate the value of epigraphy to the student of ancient history, which is constantly being cor roborated, corrected, and supplemented by the discovery of inscriptions in various parts of the ancient world. Perhaps the most striking example of this to be found in this dissertation is the recently discovered fragment of the Fasti of Ostia, which gives us at least two facts hitherto unknown, viz: the date of Antonia's death, and the names of the two consuls who succeeded Caligula and Claudius in 37 A. D., besides throwing light on the circumstances attending the funeral of Tiberius and the entry of Caligula into Rome. Although it has been my intention to make as complete a collection as possible of the inscriptions, there are undoubtedly some omissions.

Download or read book Suetonius Life of Augustus written by Suetonius and published by OXF GREEK LATIN COLLEGE COMMENT SERIES. This book was released on 2023 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The lifetime of Augustus (63 BCE -14 CE) was a key moment of transition for the Roman world. Following decades of civil war, the traditional government of the Roman Republic evolved to include a leading role for Augustus. Peace at home was balanced with wars of expansion and consolidation on the frontiers. Literature and the arts flourished. A building boom transformed the city of Rome. Augustus was at the center of it all, and thus the lifetime of Augustus and the life of Augustus himself have attracted keen interest from antiquity up to the present day. In his biography of Augustus, the early second century CE author C. Suetonius Tranquillus offers not only a survey of the major political, military and civic accomplishments of his subject, but also includes such diverse topics as Augustus's family lineage, spouses, personal appearance, leisure activities, intellectual pursuits and style of living. We find in the Life of Augustus a detailed biography of a leading figure at a pivotal historical moment, as well as the material for political, social, and cultural history that offers a wide range of approaches to the Augustan age. This volume provides a comprehensive edition of Suetonius's Life of Augustus for readers of Latin at the intermediate and advanced levels. The complete Latin text is presented, accompanied on the same page by a running vocabulary, grammatical support, and historical notes to aid comprehension, making this volume ideally suited for use on its own. An introduction to Suetonius and his style of biographical writing provides context for interpreting the text.
Download or read book Suetonius written by D. Wardle and published by . This book was released on 2014-12-02 with total page 800 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Suetonius' Life of Augustus is the most commonly read ancient account of the life of Rome's first emperor, presenting a mass of historical and biographical detail about both his public and personal lives. This two-volume set provides the first large-scale commentary on Suetonius' work in English, drawing out what is unique about Suetonius' information, discussing how it relates to other ancient accounts, and assessing its historical reliability. The commentary is the first to be accessible to readers without any knowledge of Latin or Greek due to its use of English lemmata, while the new translation remains faithful to the original Latin. Accompanied by an introduction which investigates the career of Suetonius, the date of the Lives of the Caesars, the structure of the Life of Augustus, the various sources utilized by Suetonius, and the way in which the reader should approach this complex text, the commentary also looks to examine Suetonius' work not just as a repository of facts, but as a literary artefact carefully constructed by its author.

Download or read book Augustus at War written by Lindsay Powell and published by Grub Street Publishers. This book was released on 2016-09-30 with total page 462 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A penetrating assessment of Augustus as ancient Rome’s military commander-in-chief. The words Pax Augusta—or Pax Romana—evoke a period of uninterrupted peace across the vast Roman Empire. Lindsay Powell exposes this as a fallacy. Almost every year between 31 BC and AD 14 the Roman Army was in action somewhere, either fighting enemies beyond the frontier in punitive raids or for outright conquest; or suppressing banditry or rebellions within the borders. Remarkably, over the same period, Augustus succeeded in nearly doubling the size of the Empire. How did this second-rate field commander, known to become physically ill before and during battle, achieve such extraordinary success? Did he, in fact, have a grand strategy? Powell reveals Augustus as a brilliant strategist and manager of war. As commander-in-chief (imperator) he made changes to the political and military institutions to keep the empire together, and to hold on to power himself. His genius was to build a team of loyal but semi-autonomous deputies (legati) to ensure internal security and to fight his wars for him, while claiming their achievements as his own. The book profiles more than 90 of these men, as well as the military units under their command, and the campaigns they fought. The book is lavishly illustrated with 23 maps, 42 color plates, 13 black-and-white figures and five order of battle schematics. With a foreword by Karl Galinsky, this book breaks new ground in explaining the extraordinary achievement of Caesar Augustus.
