Nero is both one of the most famous and one of the most striking ruler figures of antiquity. He became emperor of the Roman Empire at a young age, partly thanks to his mother's intrigues. 14 years of rule followed, during which he attempted a balancing act between government work and art.
Holger Sonnabend presents an up-to-date, attractive and exciting biography of Nero based on the latest research. In addition to the incontrovertible facts, the stages of his reign, Nero is also examined from various individual aspects. Both the politician and the artist Nero are considered. This colourful picture is rounded off by the question of how Nero became what we think we know today. For Nero was more than just the mad tyrant that ancient authors like to portray him as: he was a fascinating figure in an exciting phase of Roman history.
