Inhaltsangabe
Continuing the saga begun in I, Claudius, Robert Graves's Claudius the God is a compelling fictional autobiography of the Roman emperor, published with an introduction by Barry Unsworth in Penguin Modern Classics.
Claudius has survived the murderous intrigues of his predecessors to become, reluctantly, Emperor of Rome. Here he recounts his surprisingly successful reign: how he cultivates the loyalty of the army and the common people to repair the damage caused by Caligula; his relations with the Jewish King Herod Agrippa; and his invasion of Britain. But the growing paranoia of absolute power and the infidelity of his promiscuous young wife Messalina mean that his good fortune will not last forever. In this second part of Robert Graves's fictionalized autobiography, Claudius - wry, rueful, always inquisitive - brings to life some of the most scandalous and violent times in history.
If you enjoyed Claudius the God, you might like Marguerite Yourcenar's Memoirs of Hadrian, also available in Penguin Modern Classics.

Zustand: Fair. : Claudius the God es la continuación de la saga iniciada en Yo, Claudio, de Robert Graves. En esta novela, Claudius ha sobrevivido a las intrigas de sus predecesores y se ha convertido, a regañadientes, en emperador de Roma. Aquí relata su reinado sorprendentemente exitoso: cómo cultiva la lealtad del ejército y del pueblo común para reparar el daño causado por Calígula, sus relaciones con el rey judío Herodes Agripa y su invasión de Britania. Pero la creciente paranoia del poder absoluto y la infidelidad de su joven y promiscua esposa Mesalina significan que su buena fortuna no durará para siempre. En esta segunda parte de la autobiografía novelada de Robert Graves, Claudius, irónico, arrepentido y siempre inquisitivo, da vida a algunos de los tiempos más escandalosos y violentos de la historia.
