The enlightened ancient Roman writer Suetonius, personal secretary to Emperor Hadrian, has remained in history as the author of the collection of biographies "The Lives of the Twelve Caesars" - one of the main sources of our knowledge about the most scandalous and politically exciting era in the history of ancient Rome. A string of world rulers - tyrants and generals, divine heroes and bloodthirsty madmen - from Julius Caesar to Emperor Domitian, will pass before the reader. The text sheds light on both the political intrigues and the intimate lives of the Caesars, combining fascinating narrative with the classic clarity of the ancient syllable. The book also includes stories "On Famous Men" - rhetors, grammarians, poets; the appendix contains the letters of Pliny the Younger - authentic documents related to the name of Gaius Suetonius Tarquinius.
