The reign of Nero is often judged to be the embodiment of the extravagance and corruption that have, for many, come to symbolise ancient Rome. In Nero David Shotter provides a reassessment of this view.
1. Family and politics -- 2. Nero's early life and accession -- 3. The new Augustus -- 4. Empire and provinces -- 5. Hellenistic monarch or Roman megalomaniac? -- 6. Opposition and rebellion -- 7. The end of Nero : civil war.
