Sejanus: And Other Roman Tales is a collection of short stories written by Edward Maturin and published in 1839. The book is set in ancient Rome and explores the themes of power, corruption, and betrayal through various characters and their stories. The title story, Sejanus, is about the rise and fall of a powerful Roman general who becomes the right-hand man of Emperor Tiberius before being executed for treason. Other stories in the book include The Capitolian, which tells the tale of a young man who becomes embroiled in a plot to overthrow the Roman government, and The Conspiracy of Caligula, which follows a group of conspirators who plot to assassinate the notorious emperor. Maturin's writing is known for its vivid descriptions of ancient Rome and its characters, and his stories are full of intrigue, suspense, and drama. Sejanus: And Other Roman Tales is a must-read for anyone interested in ancient history, Roman culture, or classic literature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
