Suetonius (C. Suetonius Tranquillus, born ca. 70 CE), son of a military tribune, was at first an advocate and a teacher of rhetoric, but later became the emperor Hadrian’s private secretary, 119–121. He dedicated to C. Septicius Clarus, prefect of the praetorian guard, his Lives of the Caesars. After the dismissal of both men for some breach of court etiquette, Suetonius apparently retired and probably continued his writing. His other works, many known by title, are now lost except for part of the Lives of Illustrious Men (of letters).
Friend of Pliny the Younger, Suetonius was a studious and careful collector of facts, so that the extant lives of the emperors (including Julius Caesar the dictator) to Domitian are invaluable. His plan in Lives of the Caesars is: the emperor’s family and early years; public and private life; death. We find many anecdotes, much gossip of the imperial court, and various details of character and personal appearance. Suetonius’s account of Nero’s death is justly famous.

评分可能由于作者写书的时代问题,这本书文字的感觉类似于旧约。 总体来说翻译的不错,偶尔有一两个的地方有些奇怪而已, 例如,A是B的父亲的母亲。 这本书最为突出的地方就是写出了帝王的凡人那一面, 这本书里面很客观的会将帝王的功绩罗列出来,然后介绍帝王的凡人一面。在尼...
