The Front List: Tom Holland
Join us for a fantastic live streaming event from Edinburgh International Book Festival!
Historian and The Rest is History podcast co-host Tom Holland describes The Lives of the Caesars, written by Suetonius 2,000 years ago, as having ‘the quality of a very highbrow gossip column’. His new translation of this influential work illuminates the lives of the first 12 Roman emperors, exploring their leadership strategies, policy crises, eccentricities, and even their sex scandals. Join Jenny Niven chatting with a writer who’s revolutionised popular history – not to be missed by anyone who thinks about the Roman Empire even infrequently.
