The Roman emperor Nero is remembered by history as the vain and immoral monster who fiddled while Rome burned. Edward Champlin reinterprets Nero’s enormities on their own terms, as the self-conscious performances of an imperial actor with a formidable grasp of Roman history and mythology and a canny sense of his audience. Nero murdered his younger brother and rival to the throne, probably at his mother’s prompting. He then murdered his mother, with whom he may have slept. He killed his pregnant wife in a fit of rage, then castrated and married a young freedman because he resem

Acclaimed as a classic portrait, Griffin’s work is widely considered to be the definitive biography of this notorious emperor. Nero’s personality and crimes have always intrigued historians, novelists and general readers. The first Princeps tol be declared a Public Enemy by the Roman Senate, Nero became one of the canonical tyrants along with Caligula and Domitian, and bears the dubious honor of having essentially brought about the end of the Augustan dynasty. Griffin observes the emperor in the worlkd in which he lived, his intense relationship with the arts, and the factors

In The Nero Prediction, author Humphry Knipe reconsiders one of the most notorious figures of all time. Was Nero the Antichrist who "fiddled" while Rome burned or an artistic genius trapped inside a Caesar? It is 48 AD, a time when Rome rules the world and astrologers rule Rome. Agrippina, the niece of Emperor Claudius, reads in the stars that someone born in Alexandria on July 19, 32 AD, is destined to help raise her son, the future emperor Nero, to the throne of the Caesars. This fated young man is Epaphroditus, a library slave and the book’s narrator. Epaphroditus becomes Nero’s conf
