Publisher's Synopsis
Les douze CÃ(c)sars, translated from the Latin of Suetonius by M. de La Harpe, offers a detailed look into the lives and reigns of the first twelve Roman emperors. This edition, presented as Volume 02, includes notes and reflections by La Harpe, providing historical context and analysis for the late 18th-century reader.
Suetoniusâ(TM)s biographies offer insights into the personalities, habits, and political maneuvers of figures such as Julius Caesar, Augustus, Tiberius, and Nero. La Harpeâ(TM)s translation makes these classical texts accessible to a wider French-speaking audience, inviting reflection on the nature of power, the dynamics of the Roman Empire, and the enduring fascination with ancient history. This volume serves as a valuable resource for scholars and enthusiasts interested in classical literature and Roman history.
