Caligula: Inhalt, Einordnung und bibliografische Details

Mit Caligula liegt ein Buch von Aloys Winterling vor, das der Kategorie Sachbuch zugeordnet wird und sich für alle eignet, die gezielt nach Literatur mit diesem Schwerpunkt suchen. Der Zusatz eine Biographie schärft das Profil von Caligula und unterstützt die thematische Einordnung bereits auf den ersten Blick. Die Kurzbeschreibung von Caligula zeigt, welche Inhalte Leserinnen und Leser erwarten dürfen: The infamous emperor Caligula ruled Rome from A.D. 37 to 41 as a tyrant who ultimately became a monster. An exceptionally smart and cruelly witty man, Caligula made his contemporaries worship him as a god. He drank pearls dissolved in vinegar and ate food covered in gold leaf. He forced men and women of high rank to have sex with him, turned part of his palace into a brothel, and committed incest with his sisters. He wanted to make his horse a consul. Torture and executions were the order of the day. Both modern and ancient interpretations have concluded from this alleged evidence that Caligula was insane. But was he? This biography tells a different story of the well-known emperor. In a deft account written for a general audience, Aloys Winterling opens a new perspective on the man and his times. Basing Caligula on a thoroughly new assessment of the ancient sources, he sets the emperor's story into the context of the political system and the changing relations between the Senate and the emperor during Caligula's time and finds a new rationality explaining his notorious brutality. --Book Jacket Die Ausgabe erschien am 2012 bei Verlag C.H. Beck und ist dem Verlagsstandort München zugeordnet.
