An exceptionally smart and cruelly witty man, Caligula made his contemporaries worship him as a god. He drank pearls dissolved in vinegar and ate food covered in gold leaf. He forced men and women of high rank to have sex with him, turned part of his palace into a brothel, and committed incest with his sisters. He wanted to make his horse a consul. Torture and executions were the order of the day. Both modern and ancient interpretations have concluded from this alleged evidence that Caligula was insane. But was he? This biography tells a different story of the well-known emperor. In a deft account written for a general audience, Aloys Winterling opens a new perspective on the man and his times. Basing Caligula on a thorough new assessment of the ancient sources, he sets the emperor's story into the context of the political system and the changing relations between the senate and the emperor during Caligula's time and finds a new rationality explaining his notorious brutality. 410 0$aJoan Palevsky imprint in classical literature. 606 $aEmperors$zRome$vBiography 607 $aRome$xHistory$yCaligula, 37-41 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aEmperors 676 $a937/.07092 676 $aB 700 $aWinterling$b Aloys$0254788 701 $aSchneider$b Deborah Lucas$01053789 701 $aMost$b Glenn W$0168310 701 $aPsoinos$b Paul$01053790 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910456588503321 996 $aCaligula$92485880 997 $aUNINA LEADER 01781nam 2200529 450 001 9910460843703321 005 20170919031723.0 010 $a1-4742-8217-2 035 $a(CKB)3710000000493629 035 $a(EBL)4044967 035 $a(SSID)ssj0001575004 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)16233774 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0001575004 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)14845248 035 $a(PQKB)10694185 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC4044967 035 $a(EXLCZ)993710000000493629 100 $a20151116e20132012 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aEarly European castles $earistocracy and authority, AD 800-1200 /$fOliver H.
