This is an automatically translated description

The book by the famous Roman historian Gaius Suetonius presents biographies of the Roman Caesars. Along with examples of courage, bravery, and honesty, the reader will witness incredible cruelty, debauchery, arbitrariness, and greed; this, surprisingly, was combined with high moral qualities in both individuals and Roman culture as a whole.

This ancient work, written in the early second century, in many ways reflects the modern world of political vicissitudes and backstage intrigues: ancient Rome was like a prototype of the modern world, in which, along with courage, bravery and honesty, there are baseness, cunning and audacity. It is interesting to observe how the Power changes the character and disposition of people with incredibly strong spirits in a very short time. Only a few could remain resilient to its temptations and not abuse their position.
