The themes of countless legends, these men were infamously depicted in Suetonius's Lives of the Caesars as strange at best & hideously villainous at worst. One of those classics that is a genuine, even salacious pleasure to read, and the historical basis for Robert Graves's "I, Claudius", "The Twelve Caesars" covers the first twelve emperors of Ancient Rome (Including Julius Caesar, though Augustus was the first officially); the Julio-Claudians through Nero, his very brief successors Galba,Otho and Vitellius (in the tumultuous 'year of three Emperors', A.D. 69), and finally the Flavians Vespasian, Titus, and Domitian. the twelve caesars. CAIUS JULIUS CASAR. I. Julius Caesar, the Divine 3, lost his father 4 when he was in the sixteenth year of his age 5 ; and the year following, being nominated to the office of high-priest of Jupiter 6, he repudiated Cossutia, who was very wealthy, although her family belonged only to the equestrian order, and to whom he had been contracted when he was a mere boy.

Suetonius goes to great lengths to reveal the way these men really were, as human beings. Each emperor is dissected, and his actions beyond politics and professionalism revealed. 'The Twelve Caesars' is an informal set of twelve biographies, of varying length & subject matter, on the first twelve emperors of the Roman Empire. It's like Suetonius decided that he wanted to create this magnum opus about the twelve Caesars but he didn't really feel like following the rules that everyone else adhered to when they wrote biographies; he wanted to do it his way. The Twelve Caesars Summary & Study Guide They have come down to posterity as the "twelve Caesars"―Julius Caesar, Augustus, Tiberius, Caligula, Claudius, Nero, Galba, Otho, Vitellius, Vespasian, Titus, and Domitian. Under their rule, from 49 BC to AD 96, Rome was transformed from a republic to an empire, whose model of regal autocracy would survive in the West for more than a thousand years.

  • Caesar the Unexpected N.B
    1 Caesar the Unexpected N.B. some of this presentation comes from my book, Julius Caesar, Master of Surprise. The quotations from Plutarch and Suetonius can be found on the LacusCurtius website. Slide 1. Section I Early Career Section II The Cursus Honorum Section III Proconsul and commander in Gaul and Illyricum Section IV After Gaul Julius Caesar is one of the most famous men of all time; he is also one of the most controversial. Everyone has an opinion of him, and few are favorable. We cannot pretend to fathom his motives, so this workshop will consider some of the ancient writings about what he did while we build our concept of him. Examining these will help teachers develop Caesar presentations for classes. De Bello Gallico will give us his picture of the situation. I like, before entering it, to make this short study of ancient writings about him and then ask students to comment when the qualities mentioned surface in their reading of De Bello Gallico. An important element in Caesar study is the unexpected and sometimes unique approach he took to problems. His deeds and attitudes, which took friend and foe by surprise, contributed much to his success and also to his death. Here we want to examine brief excerpts from writings of Caesar's contemporaries such as Sallust, Cicero, and Nepos, and of other ancient writers such as Suetonius, Cassius Dio, and Plutarch. These reflect the reactions of those around him to Caesar's moves. These moves may be well known to us but were astounding at the time.

  • Julius Caesar
    Working Paper CEsA CSG 168/2018 ANCIENT ROMAN POLITICS – JULIUS CAESAR Maria SOUSA GALITO Abstract Julius Caesar (JC) survived two civil wars: first, leaded by Cornelius Sulla and Gaius Marius; and second by himself and Pompeius Magnus. Until he was stabbed to death, at a senate session, in the Ides of March of 44 BC. JC has always been loved or hated, since he was alive and throughout History. He was a war hero, as many others. He was a patrician, among many. He was a roman Dictator, but not the only one. So what did he do exactly to get all this attention? Why did he stand out so much from the crowd? What did he represent? JC was a front-runner of his time, not a modern leader of the XXI century; and there are things not accepted today that were considered courageous or even extraordinary achievements back then. This text tries to explain why it’s important to focus on the man; on his life achievements before becoming the most powerful man in Rome; and why he stood out from every other man. Keywords Caesar, Politics, Military, Religion, Assassination. Sumário Júlio César (JC) sobreviveu a duas guerras civis: primeiro, lideradas por Cornélio Sula e Caio Mário; e depois por ele e Pompeius Magnus. Até ser esfaqueado numa sessão do senado nos Idos de Março de 44 AC. JC foi sempre amado ou odiado, quando ainda era vivo e ao longo da História. Ele foi um herói de guerra, como outros. Ele era um patrício, entre muitos. Ele foi um ditador romano, mas não o único.

Supplies were running out, malaria and dysentery were decimating his army, and the oarsmen who powered his ships were starting to desert. Sparked by the assassination of Julius Caesarthey had torn the Roman world apart. But once that common enemy had been tackled, their fragile alliance began to fracture and the two became bitter enemies. With a powerful navy numbering some ships, they probably hoped to lure Octavian and his forces into Greece, before destroying his fleet in a pitched battle, thus cutting his supply lines. If so, the ploy worked. Octavian crossed into Greece with a large army. Disastrously for Antony, however, sickness ravaged his forces. Much of his land army was unfit for battle, and he could muster crews for barely half his fleet. He was no great general, but his old friend Marcus Agrippa was an able soldier, and commanded his forces.

  • The Writings of Julius Caesar Latin 3A Handout #1
    THE WRITINGS OF JULIUS CAESAR LATIN 3A HANDOUT #1 ASSIGNMENT 1.1: INTRODUCTION AND CAESAR’S MEMOIRS ON THE WAR IN GAUL Make sure that your work is your own. Since you are new to Caesar, you will discover the following about him: He uses lots of specific place names. You can find most of them on the map I’ve provided. Caesar preferred simple, straightforward vocabulary. The first passage does not use the letter ‘v’ (which didn’t exist in Latin) but uses ‘u’ for both the consonant and the vowel. Be prepared to examine words with the letter ‘u’ for this variation and hear my voice when I say, “it’s good for you.” Caesar loved ablatives absolute. (review chapter 24 of Wheelock’s Latin) Caesar loved indirect statement. (review chapter 25 of Wheelock’s Latin) INTRODUCTION TO JULIUS CAESAR BY BARBARA MCMANUS 102/100 BC: Gaius Julius Caesar was born of Aurelia and Gaius Julius Caesar, a praetor. His family had noble, patrician roots, although they were neither rich nor influential in this period. His aunt Julia was the wife of Gaius Marius, leader of the Popular faction. c. 85 BC: His father died, and a few years later he was betrothed and possibly married to a wealthy young woman, Cossutia. This betrothal/marriage was soon broken off, and at age 18 he married Cornelia, the daughter of a prominent member of the Popular faction; she later bore him his only legitimate child, a daughter, Julia. When the Optimate dictator, Sulla, was in power, he ordered Caesar to divorce her; when Caesar refused, Sulla proscribed him (listed him among those to be executed), and Caesar went into hiding.

Cleopatra got close with two men in her lifetime. First, Caesar. Towards him, she clearly fell in love. The state of their affections and passions made even the wind fluttering in the Mediterranean Sea appear to be sparkling. But he died. Although the unification of the Mediterranean World was right before his very eyes, he was assassinated. He left their son Caesarion. And then, there was a person who appeared before Cleopatra while she was lost in tears. Her country and people, and two men—— the lovely Antonius and Caesar of Rome; in the end, she committed suicide. She got close to two men, and died. Cleopatra was in love. It was the result of her feelings. Was this something like the product of her self-interest? A figure who is endowed with sincerity inside and who believes in having no regrets dying together, only this partner similar to the men she loved before can, utterly, seduce her. However, Caesarion was only aged nine during the time he lost his life. Cleopatra's words, deeds and actions are all together unprecedented for a queen. Dashingly, a top lady who lives on coolness. With her utmost nice nature, there are also traits from her that are seen as foolish because of her speeches and conducts further exaggerating it. Recognizing nothing but heavenly beauty.
