Emperor Domitian. The author provides numerous interesting facts and details that allow the reader to better understand the era and culture of that time, based precisely on the personality of the hero. Suetonius's work offers the reader a unique opportunity to get acquainted with a «living» Rome: to eavesdrop on gossip told in public baths and at aristocratic banquets, to peek at the pages of scathing opposition pamphlets, to read excerpts from personal letters, and ultimately to see the lords of a vanished superpower, once stretching from Britain to the Middle East, through the eyes of their biased subjects.
