Suetonius (C. Suetonius Tranquillus, born ca. 70 CE), son of a military tribune, was at first an advocate and a teacher of rhetoric, but later became the emperor Hadrian’s private secretary, 119–121. He dedicated to C. Septicius Clarus, prefect of the praetorian guard, his Lives of the Caesars. After the dismissal of both men for some breach of court etiquette, Suetonius apparently retired and probably continued his writing. His other works, many known by title, are now lost except for part of the Lives of Illustrious Men (of letters).
Friend of Pliny the Younger, Suetonius was a studious and careful collector of facts, so that the extant lives of the emperors (including Julius Caesar the dictator) to Domitian are invaluable. His plan in Lives of the Caesars is: the emperor’s family and early years; public and private life; death. We find many anecdotes, much gossip of the imperial court, and various details of character and personal appearance. Suetonius’s account of Nero’s death is justly famous.

評分 評分 評分曾经写过考察材料,某某某同志,德能勤绩廉,最后来点不足。 本书也是这个套路,不过因为年代的关系,难免有出身论的影响,总要写某某某是谁谁谁的儿子,他爸是谁,当过什么级别的干部,他妈的家庭出身阶级成分等等。 一般来说,写优点可以举例子,写缺点一般泛泛而谈,在综...
評分本来以为这部书是严肃正经的历史,结果看完大跌眼镜。作者根本不是在写严肃的历史,而是把罗马帝王当作当红明星,搜集编写他们的各种八卦和黑历史。作者如果放在现代,一定是个顶尖的八卦娱乐报刊记者。 罗马的“帝王”和中国的“帝王”性质差异很大,其实翻译成“凯撒”也许更...
