Excerpt: ...would write to his cousin if he happened to need any advice. But Verus, who was there in Syria, could not suffer this, and when, a little later, Libo died after a sudden illness accompanied by all the symptoms of poisoning, it seemed probable to-some people, though not to Marcus, that Verus was responsible for his death; and this suspicion strengthened the rumours of dissensions between the Emperors. Verus' freedmen, furthermore, had great influence with him, as we related in the Life of Marcus,2 namely Geminas and Agaclytus. To the latter of these he gave the widow of Libo in marriage against the wishes of Marcus; indeed, when Verus celebrated the marriage ceremony Marcus did not attend the banquet. Verus had other unscrupulous freedmen as well, Coedes and Eclectus and others. All of these Marcus dismissed after Verus' death, under pretext of doing them honour, with the exception of Eclectus, and he afterwards slew Marcus' son, Commodus.3 When the German war broke out, the two Em-166 perors went to the front together, for Marcus wished neither to send Lucius to the war alone, nor yet, because of his debauchery, to leave him in the city. When they had come to Aquileia,4 they proceeded to cross the Alps, though this was contrary to Lucius' 8 cum Verus apud Aquileiam tantum venatusi con-vivatusque esset, Marcus autem omnia prospexisset. 9 de quo bello quid 2 per legatos barbarorum pacem petentium, quid3 per duces nostros gestum est, in 10 Marci vita plenissime disputatum est. composito autem bello in Pannonia urguente Lucio Aquileiam redierunt,4 quodque5 urbanas desiderabat Lucius 11 voluptates in urbem festinatum6 est. sed non longe ab Altino subito in vehiculo morbo, quem apoplexin vocant, correptus Lucius depositus e vehiculo detracto...

Download or read book Lives of the Later Caesars written by Anthony Birley and published by Penguin UK. This book was released on 2005-02-24 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the most controversial of all works to survive from ancient Rome, the Augustan History is our main source of information about the Roman emperors from 117 to 284 AD. Written in the late fourth century by an anonymous author, it is an enigmatic combination of truth, invention and humour. This volume contains the first half of the History, and includes biographies of every emperor from Hadrian to Heliogabalus - among them the godlike Marcus Antonius and his grotesquely corrupt son Commodus. The History contains many fictitious (but highly entertaining) anecdotes about the depravity of the emperors, as the author blends historical fact and faked documents to present our most complete - albeit unreliable - account of the later Roman Caesars.

Download or read book Writing Under Tyranny written by Greg Walker and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2005-10-20 with total page 572 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Writing Under Tyranny: English Literature and the Henrician Reformation spans the boundaries between literary studies and history. It looks at the impact of tyrannical government on the work of poets, playwrights, and prose writers of the early English Renaissance. It shows the profound effects that political oppression had on the literary production of the years from 1528 to 1547, and how English writers in turn strove to mitigate, redirect, and finally resist that oppression. The result was the destruction of a number of forms that had dominated the literary production of late-medieval England, but also the creation of new forms that were to dominate the writing of the following centuries. Paradoxically, the tyranny of Henry VIII gave birth to many modes of writing now seen to be characteristic of the English literary Renaissance.
