Considered an idiot because of his physical infirmities, Claudius survived the intrigues and poisonings of the reigns of Augustus, Tiberius, and the Mad Caligula to become emperor in 41 A.D. A masterpiece.
Robert Graves was born in 1895 in Wimbledon, the son of Irish writer Perceval Graves and Amalia Von Ranke. He went from school to the First World War, where he became a captain in the Royal Welch Fusiliers. After this, apart from a year as Professor of English Literature at Cairo University in 1926, he earned his living by writing, mostly historical novels, including: I, Claudius; Claudius the God; Count Belisarius; Wife of Mr Milton; Sergeant Lamb of the Ninth; Proceed, Sergeant Lamb; The Golden Fleece; They Hanged My Saintly Billy; and The Isles of Unwisdom. He wrote his autobiography, Goodbye to All That, in 1929, and it was soon established as a modern classic. The Times Literary Supplement acclaimed it as 'one of the most candid self portraits of a poet, warts and all, ever painted', as well as being of exceptional value as a war document. Two of his most discussed non-fiction works are The White Goddess, which presents a new view of the poetic impulse, and The Nazarine Gospel Restored (with Joshua Podro), a re-examination of primitive Christianity. He also translated Apuleius, Lucan and Suetonius for the Penguin Classics, and compiled the first modern dictionary of Greek Mythology, The Greek Myths. His translation of The Rubáiyát of Omar Khayyám (with Omar Ali-Shah) is also published in Penguin. He was elected Professor of Poetry at Oxford in 1961 and made an Honorary Fellow of St John's College, Oxford, in 1971.
Robert Graves died on 7 December 1985 in Majorca, his home since 1929. On his death The Times wrote of him, 'He will be remembered for his achievements as a prose stylist, historical novelist and memorist, but above all as the great paradigm of the dedicated poet, "the greatest love poet in English since Donne".'

評分老子說的大樹易摧,小草因柔弱而生存,所以當皇族貴胄在傾軋中同歸於盡的時候,一個瘸腳的結巴被命運扔上瞭皇位。。。這本小說以自傳的口吻寫成,感覺可以亂真

評分曆史小說寫到這個份上也算極緻瞭
評分An entertaining but otherwise frivolous book. (Calling it the greatest historical fiction is probably a stretch) I much prefer the depth of John WIlliam's Augustus.
老爷子写得太太太太太赞了,一定是最妙趣横生最八卦的古罗马野史入门教程! 这天下有太多的皇帝国王大帝君主是不是都共享了同一个剧本啊:弑亲☞登基☞维稳☞削藩☞集权☞称神☞立储☞纵奢☞败落☞内讧☞被坑☞卒...结巴又被当成宫廷小丑的Claudius揣着...
評分已经买了那本“罗马帝国:神的统治”,同一个出版社又出了一本同一个作家写的同一个类型的书,居然连写作手法都类似,都是以克劳狄乌斯的口吻写的同一段罗马历史,很是怀疑其实是一本书的两个名字而已啊!但是还没找到佐证哦...

評分一本精彩的历史小说,一本非同寻常的人生流水账,充满智慧和人性(有好的也有坏的,正如序言所说,好的善良可爱,坏的令人发指,但每个人物性格都如此鲜明饱满,即使只有几行描述都令人无法遗忘)。 国内只发行了上半部,这本的原文版本我在电驴上下了,求另一本的英文《claud...
