Even his face became more than usually familiar: the imperial coinage displayed his portrait for over 40 years, from the clean-shaven young heir of Antonius to the war-weary, heavily bearded ruler who died at his post in his late fifties.His correspondence with his tutor Fronto, and even more the private notebook he kept for his last ten years, the Meditations, provides a unique series of vivid and revealing glimpses into the characterRoman Imperial BiographiesEmperorsRomeBiographyRomeHistoryMarcus Aurelius, 161-180Emperors937/.07/092BBirley Anthony1937-267280MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910783033803321Marcus Aurelius25586UNINA
