Suetonius
Gaius Suetonius Tranquillus (), commonly referred to as
Suetonius ( ; – after AD 122), was a
Roman historian who wrote during the early
Imperial era of the
Roman Empire. His most important surviving work is ''De vita Caesarum'', commonly known in English as ''
The Twelve Caesars'', a set of biographies of 12 successive Roman rulers from
Julius Caesar to
Domitian. Other works by Suetonius concerned the daily life of
Rome, politics, oratory, and the lives of famous writers, including poets, historians, and grammarians. A few of these books have partially survived, but many have been lost.
