In rereading the texts more critically, we make the acquaintance of a man who, from childhood, had to confront the perils of a difficult life before facing many inexorable obligations both as a military general and as Augustus’ son-in-law and successor. We thus observe differences between the assessments of the eye witnesses of his era and the “historians” who judged him three-quarters of a century after his death. Th. Mommsen considered him “the most capable of Roman emperors”, and ranked him as one of the “best.”With Augustus, the imperial power assumed a complex form. Tiberius exercised it unambiguously and, as it were, laid the groundwork for a long and prestigious posterity.Robert Turcan a graduate of École Normale Supérieure, is a former member of École française de Rome, Professor Emeritus (Paris IV), and a member of Institut français (Académie des Inscriptions and Belles-Lettres). He has focused his research on Roman art, sarcophagi, Dionysism, and eastern cults of the Roman world.
