Abstract
The Lives of the Caesars by Latin biographer C. Suetonius Tranquillus is one of the central texts for our understanding of the early imperial history of Rome as well as a work full of unique literary features. In eight connected chapters, this edited volume provides a narratological examination of the diverse range of narrative techniques that can be discovered in De vita Caesarum, from the micro to the macro level.
