Description

Julius Caesar makes a name for himself in Rome as a womanizer. A view into the women of the Roman Republic and the women in Caesar’s life. Enter onto the stage Marcus Porcius Cato and Servillia.

 

Note #1: Suetonius tells us Caesar drank very little wine and that even his enemies admitted that.

 

Correction: While Servillia’s affair with Julius Caesar was embarrassing for Cato, Servillia would have fallen under the authority of her husband when married, not Cato.

 

Note #2: It would probably be more accurate to translate "Cursus Honorum" as "course of honors".
