The politics of empire-building and the hypocrisies, back-stabbings, and corruptions of Rome's first family come to light.

This is gripping stuff, read by one of our finest actors, who also starred as Claudius in the classic television series.

Immaginaria autobiografia del grande imperatore, Io, Claudio rievoca i fasti, i costumi e la potenza della Roma imperiale, ma anche gli episodi grotteschi e le tragiche avventure di colui che, tra i dodici Cesari, ebbe la vita più movimentata. Primo "generalissimo" dell'impero, seguiremo Claudio nell'instaurazione della dominazione permanente della Britannia, nei palazzi dei deserti libici, per le strade di Roma, negli accampamenti dei Balcani, addirittura ad Antiochia in una casa infestata dagli spiriti.

Death is meant to come on a chariot of broken dreams or in the dark trenches of a storm, not in love letters and gifts. He did not take my soul when I was meant to die. He did not want it all the other times that I've offered it to him on a silver platter. Yet, time and time again, he reminds me that I am his: His night monster, his dark love, his perfect other. Death was the only thing keeping me alive. He watches me from his corner, taunts me with sweet messages, marks my body with his touch as I sleep. He took the people that I love away from me.

Prima della scienza, prima della religione, c'è il mito. Modo ingenuo - ci dicono -, modo fantasioso, spregiudicato e prescientifico, di spiegare l'origine delle cose e degli uomini, gli usi i costumi e le leggi. Filologia, etnografia, antropologia hanno lacerato il velo del mito, evidenziandone le radici ideologiche, il retroterra di superstizione e di magia. Ma i miti, così dissezionati, ci vengono restituiti alla stregua di freddi reperti anatomici, buoni tuttalpiù per qualche museo.

All too often the talents of women have been scorned, mocked and laughed at. In reality that was more usually by those whose own talents were hardly fit to even grace their shadows. But society in general still connived and set women to one side in almost everything that men considered their rightful territory. And literature was one such territory. Remarkably resilient as well as talented these women strove to be published, to show themselves as equals. The results more often than not proved that they were.
