{"product_id":"suetonius-a-wallace-hadrill-9781853994517","title":"Suetonius","description":"\u003cp\u003eSuetonius, a Roman historian, was the author of \"The Lives of the Caesars\". This biography sets the historian's career and his method of dealing with his subject matter in the context of Roman society in the early Empire, and draws a picture of the coherence of Suetonius's life, appointments, scholarship and literary activities. Suetonius is presented as a man of learning, rather than as a failed narrative historian. This portrait takes account of recent evidence concerning his life and seeks to clarify the character of \"The Lives of the Caesars\" as a description of emperors and Roman imperial society by a scholarly biographer who himself was in the service of a scholarly Caesar - the Emperor Hadrian.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Andrew Wallace-Hadrill\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1853994510\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781853994517\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bristol Classical Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/01\/1998\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 228\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.70lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 6.00w x 0.60d","brand":"Andrew Wallace-Hadrill","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43939019227391,"sku":"9781853994517","price":30.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_a876d706-392f-4677-bdf7-50d565d2f7ea.jpg?v=1681439019","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/suetonius-a-wallace-hadrill-9781853994517","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
