The first two centuries of the Christian era were largely a period
of consolidation for the Roman Empire. However, the history of the
heyday of Roman imperium is far from dull, for Augustus' successors
ranged from capable administrators - Tiberius, Claudius and Hadrian
- to near-madmen like Caligula and the amateur gladiator Commodus,
who might have wrecked the system but for its inherent strength.
Albino Garzetti's classic From Tiberius to the Antonines, first
published in 1960, presents a definitive account of this
fascinating period, which combines a clear and readable narrative
with a thorough discussion of the methodological problems and
primary sources. Regarding difficult historical questions, it can
be relied upon for careful and reasonable judgments based on a full
mastery of an immense amount of material. Nearly three hundred
pages of critical notes and a comprehensive bibliography complement
the text, ensuring its continuing relevance for all students of
Roman history.
