Memoirs of Hadrian

"Memoirs of Hadrian" — a first-person narrative in the form of fictional letters from the Roman Emperor Hadrian. This unique historical prose is notable for the purity and accuracy of its literary style, reproducing the writing manner of Roman intellectuals... of the late Empire so precisely that the novel has been successfully translated into classical Latin. Equally remarkable is the literary mastery of the author, who literally "brings to life" before the reader the complex, multifaceted, and extraordinary personality of the great Roman emperor – a politician and philosopher, builder and poet, commander and tireless traveler, eternally driven into the unknown.
