From a pre-eminent biographer in the field, this volume examines
the life and times of the emperor Vespasian and challenges the
validity of his perennial good reputation and universally
acknowledged achievements. Levick examines how this plebeian and
uncharismatic Emperor restored peace and confidence to Rome and
ensured a smooth succession, how he coped with the military,
political and economic problems of his reign, and his evaluation of
the solutions to these problems, before she finally examines his
posthumous reputation. Now updated to take account of the past 15
years of scholarship, and with a new chapter on literature under
the Flavians, Vespasian is a fascinating study for students of
Roman history and the general classical enthusiast alike.
