The Sons of Caesar

The Sons of Caesar

Julius Caesar, Augustus, Tiberius, Caligula, Claudius, Nero – these are men who mastered ancient Rome and changed it from a democracy to a personal possession. Their lives, their struggles for and grandiose displays of power have provided some of the most dramatic moments in ancient history. After the assassination of Caesar, his adopted heir Octavian rose to power and reinvented himself as the Emperor Augustus. The Julio-Claudan house ruled for almost a century, but their time was filled with tragedy, conspiracy and murder.

Set against a background of foreign wars and domestic intrigue, the story of Rome’s greatest dynasty is also the story of the birht of an imperial system, the impact of which has shaped Europe’s history all the way up to the present day.
