About this listen
Before his assassination, Julius Caesar named his great nephew Gaius Octavius as his successor. In this excerpt from The Twelve Caesars, Roman biographer Suetonius tells the life story of Octavius, who took the name Augustus when he became emperor. While Augustus did have a military career, Suetonius focuses on the dramatic details of Augustus’ personal life, making this biography more gossip-filled than its contemporaries. He covers Augustus’ troubled relationship with his daughter, Julia, which was so fraught it led him to wish that his enemies have “A wife and children like mine.”
