    Extractions: Life of Horace, by Suetonius Translated by J.C. Rolfe Q. Horatius Flaccus, Venusinus, patre ut ipse tradit libertino et exactionum coactore (ut vero creditum est salsamentario, cum illi quidam in altercatione exprobrasset: "Quotiens ego vidi patrem tuum brachio se emungentem!") bello Philippensi excitus a Marco Bruto imperatore, tribunus militum meruit; victisque partibus venia impetrata scriptum quaestorium comparavit. Ac primo Maecenati, mox Augusto insinuatus non mediocrem in amborum amicitia locum tenuit. Maecenas quantopere eum dilexerit satis testatur illo epigrammate: "Ni te visceribus meis, Horati, Ninnio videas strigosiorem"; sed multo magis extremis iudiciis tali ad Augustum elogio: "Horati Flacci ut mei esto memor". Quintus Horatius Flaccus of Venusia had for a father, as he himself writes, a freedman who was a collector of money at auctions; but it is believed that he was a dealer in salted provisions, for a certain man in a quarrel thus taunted Horace: "How often have I seen your father wiping his nose with his arm!" Horace served as tribune of the soldiers in the war of Philippi, at the instance of Marcus Brutus, one of the leaders in that war. When his party was vanquished, he was pardoned and purchased the position of a quaestor's clerk. Then contriving to win the favour, first of Maecenas and later of Augustus, he held a prominent place among the friends of both. How fond Maecenas was of him is evident enough from the well known epigram:

    Extractions: Suetonius a.d. c.69- a.d. c.140, Roman biographer. Little is known about his life except that he was briefly the private secretary of Emperor Hadrian. His De vita Caesarum [concerning the lives of the Caesars] survives almost in full; it was translated into English by Robert Graves as The Twelve Caesars (1957). There are also fragments of a much larger collection of biographies, De viris illustribus [concerning illustrious men]. He gathered together all sorts of anecdotes, and the resultant biographies are lively and informative. Suetonius was taken as a model by many later biographers.

65. Suetonius And The Reign Of Tiberius: A Comparison With Other Sources

    http://members.tripod.com/~jerryfie/essays/suetonius.htm
    
    Extractions: Suetonius wrote a vivid account of Tiberius’ life in his Twelve Caesars. Tiberius’ personality, especially his duplicity, cruelty and dissimulation appear clearly in this writer’s biography of the second emperor. I would like to recount and analyze certain episodes in Suetonius’ biography of Tiberius and in the other authors’ accounts, particularly Tacitus’ and Dio Cassius’. I will then compare these and try to tie them in to the authors’ outlooks as historians and possible class relationships as a mode of explanation for the angle of each story. First, I would like to talk briefly about each of the concerned writers and their sources, to give us a basis for what will follow. Four authors have chronicled Tiberius’ reign in some detail, one of them, Velleius Paterculus, while Tiberius was alive and ruling the Empire, the other three, Suetonius, Tacitus and Dio Cassius, later on in the history of Rome. Velleius Paterculus was a military tribune under Augustus, a prefect of the horse, a legate, a quaestor and finally a praetor under Tiberius.[1] He is known as an admirer of Tiberius, whom he served under, and of Sejanus, and this can be seen in the text. Whether this positive outlook was due to genuine admiration, prudence or fear is another story. He died around 30 or 31, so we do not have his angle on the fall of Sejanus.[2]

The Suetonius-style "life" doesn't really have the same structure as most modern short fiction. A good short story has to be more immediate than a collection of anecdotes. Overcome that problem and you might be okay. The ancient style itself wouldn't necessarily be a put-off. Jon F.

68. Suetonius, Vitellius 15-18

    Extractions: Vertaling ... III, 66-69; 72-74; 83-86 Ter inleiding Historiae en de Annales van Tacitus. In de klas heb ik enkele keren de laatste kapittels van Suetonius' biografie van Vitellius gelezen en het verslag van Suetonius getoetst aan het relaas dat Tacitus over dezelfde feiten doet in het derde boek van de Historiae. De tekst van Tacitus werd daarbij in vertaling gelezen. We gebruikten daarvoor de versie in het Tacitus-deeltje van de Geerebaert-Klassieken (Tacitus. Het drama van een imperium, verzorgd door R. Lenaers en L. Sprangers); het lange verhaal van Tacitus is in het handboekje overigens enigszins ingekort. De keuze om in de klas Suetonius te lezen is misschien niet evident. Toch lijkt het mij zinvol om na de lectuur van Tacitus even van het werk van Suetonius te proeven. Het is boeiende en leerrijk om de historicus qua inhoud, stijl en invalshoek te confronteren met de biograaf. Emblematic Scenes in Suetonius' Vitellius , een artikel van John W. Burke in HISTOS Voorgeschiedenis Op 1 januari 69, de eerste dag van het beruchte vierkeizersjaar, rebelleerden de Rijnlegioenen tegen Galba. Ze riepen hun eigen generaal, Aulus Vitellius, tot keizer uit en beslisten naar Rome op te trekken. In de Urbs greep intussen Otho de macht en werd Galba vermoord. De legers van Vitellius en Otho raakten slaags in de Povallei bij Bedriacum. Vitellius triomfeerde, Otho pleegde zelfmoord.

    Extractions: Resistance In AD47, Publius Ostorius Scapula became governor of Britain, and Roman historian Tacitus (c.AD55-117), in 'The Annals', says he: ". . . found himself confronted by disturbance. The enemy had burst into the territories of our allies with all the more fury, as they imagined that a new general would not march against them with winter beginning and with an army of which he knew nothing. Ostorius, well aware that first events are those which produce alarm or confidence, by a rapid movement of his light cohorts, cut down all who opposed him, pursued those who fled, and lest they should rally, and so an unquiet and treacherous peace might allow no rest to the general and his troops, he prepared to disarm all whom he suspected, and to occupy with encampments the whole country to the Avon and Severn. The Iceni , a powerful tribe, which war had not weakened, as they had voluntarily joined our alliance, were the first to resist. At their instigation the surrounding nations chose as a battlefield a spot walled in by a rude barrier, with a narrow approach, impenetrable to cavalry. Through these defences the Roman general, though he had with him only the allied troops, without the strength of the legions, attempted to break, and having assigned their positions to his cohorts, he equipped even his cavalry for the work of infantry. Then at a given signal they forced the barrier, routing the enemy who were entangled in their own defences. . . The defeat of the Iceni quieted those who were hesitating between war and peace."
