Book A Brief History of the Private Lives of the Roman Emperors

Download or read book A Brief History of the Private Lives of the Roman Emperors written by Anthony Blond and published by Robinson. This book was released on 2012-10-25 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the recent success of 'Rome' on BBC2, no one will look at the private lives of the Roman Emperors again in the same light. Anthony Blond's scandalous expose of the life of the Caesars is a must-read for all interested in what really went on in ancient Rome. Julius Caesar is usually presented as a glorious general when in fact he was an arrogant charmer and a swank; Augustus was so conscious of his height that he put lifts in his sandals. But they were nothing compared to Caligula, Claudius and Nero. This book is fascinating reading, eye-opening in its revelations and effortlessly entertaining.

Book A New History of the Roman Emperors

Download or read book A New History of the Roman Emperors written by Roger Michael Kean and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Few books before have explored the exploits, achievements and notorious antics of ancient Rome's imperial dynasties in such readable detail. This engaging chronicle describes the lives of every man (and quite a few women) who aspired to the purple, from Augustus in 30 BC to the misnamed Romulus Augustulus, an emperor forced into retirement in his early adolescence by a barbarian chief in AD 476. Many may be familiar with the descendants of Julius Caesar, from Augustus to Nero, but how many readers know about Maximus Thrax, Claudius II or the Gallic break-away empire of Postumus? All the emperors and major usurpers, well over 100 in all, come to life in this vivid narrative history, which is complemented by 280 drawings of their busts and coins, and over 70 maps and photographs. This new history of the Roman Emperors is a record of the political, social, military and economic strategies of the civilised world's most powerful and influential empire. It is a unique and essential companion to anyone interested in, or studying, the ancient Romans.

Book Lives of the Caesars

    Book Details:
  • Author : Suetonius
  • Publisher : OUP Oxford
  • Release : 2008-10-09
  • ISBN : 0191593397
  • Pages : 449 pages

Download or read book Lives of the Caesars written by Suetonius and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2008-10-09 with total page 449 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Lives of the Caesars include the biographies of Julius Caesar and the eleven subsequent emperors: Augustus, Tiberius, Gaius Caligula, Claudius, Nero, Galba, Otho, Vitelius, Vespasian, Titus, Domitian. Suetonius composed his material from a variety of sources, without much concern for their reliability. His biographies consist the ancestry and career of each emperor in turn; however, his interest is not so much analytical or historical, but anecdotal and salacious which gives rise to a lively and provocative succession of portraits. The account of Julius Caesar does not simply mention his crossing of the Rubicon and his assassination, but draws attention to his dark piercing eyes and attempts to conceal his baldness. The Live of Caligula presents a vivid picture of the emperor's grotesque appearance, his waywardness, and his insane cruelties. The format and style of Suetonius' Lives of the Caesars was to set the tone for biography throughout western literature - his work remains thoroughly readable and full of interest. ABOUT THE SERIES: For over 100 years Oxford World's Classics has made available the widest range of literature from around the globe. Each affordable volume reflects Oxford's commitment to scholarship, providing the most accurate text plus a wealth of other valuable features, including expert introductions by leading authorities, helpful notes to clarify the text, up-to-date bibliographies for further study, and much more.
