Inhaltsangabe

A 2010 study of the tumultuous reign of Emperor Claudius (AD 41-54), which explores what held the sprawling Roman Empire together, and what threatened to tear it apart. Claudius' ongoing difficulties suggest problems inherent to the constitution of Rome's empire, and the challenges faced by empires more generally.
