Gaius Suetonius Tranquillus, born in the time of Vespasian, passing in the time of Hadrian, writes the quintessential history of the early Roman Emperors. From Caesar to Domitian, Suetonius takes the Divine and reduces them to man, in the process, unclothing the Emperors so that he may hold a mirror to all who read his words. Suetonius gives often tart biographies of the lives of Caesar, Augustus, Tiberius, Caligula, Claudius, Nero, Galba, Otho, Vitellius, Vespasian, Titus, and Domitian. This is the Twelve Caesars. This text is the Rolfe translation, published in 1907, which stands as an eloquent, sometimes poetic, true to form translation from the original. The text has been updated with current formatting (footnotes, no dreaded end notes) and current scholarship to make consumption more palatable.
