MAECENAS' ADMINISTRATION OF ROME AND ITALY

  • AJ.M. Thom

Abstract

Octavian's acquisition of supreme power was the result of the combined effort and support of a group of talented men, whose political and military influence secured his success. Two men stand out as Octavian's closest confederates and personal friends. M. Vipsanius Agrippa and a person no less egregious and important to the inception and ultimate fruition of Octavian's ambition, C. Maecenas.
