Augustus laid down the ground rules for a \u003ci\u003eprinceps\u003c\/i\u003e, and the essays explore the subsequent transition of power, and how the succession and subsequent rule manifested itself, even though there was no formal mechanism for such a transfer. These essays fully utilize the extant literary, epigraphic, numismatic and visual record to evaluate Augustus' \"political legacy\". The representation, and retention, of power was a critical issue for the \u003ci\u003eprinceps\u003c\/i\u003e and his subjects, and the contributors provide fresh political and literary analysis of aspects of the principates of Augustus, Tiberius, Claudius and Nero.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Brill","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47891067699351,"sku":"9789004231917","price":16322.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9789004231917.webp?v=1781182252","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/the-julio-claudian-succession-reality-and-perception-of-the-augustan-model-9789004231917","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
