- Caligula - Dickies
- Caligula - Macy Gray
in the city of rome 2000 years ago
the lord tiberius bequeathed to his son caligula
he ascended the throne and many a head did roll
this horrid apparition that hell hath wrought caligula
sent to earth by the light of the earth osteria
given birth by the might of his sword caligula
now in glory he reigns o'er provinces great and small
be he a god or man all must tremble at the hand of caligula
given fire by the light of his sire germania
to be thrown on the flames of the pyre octavia
along the appian way the crucified cry out loud
"by the wrath of the gods be accursed the name caligula"
dominus aquatari ex spiritus nu men
ominus demagorgon extermitor regis
hail romulus
hail remulus
caligula
hail claudius
hail flavius
caligula
hail juluis caesarius caligula
the sibyl spoke of his fame in prophecy long foretold
the one called little boots & the kingdom he'd steal caligula
sent to earth by the light of the word osteria
given birth by the might of his sword caligula
and so a rival god he became to rival the might of jove
the whore of babylon and the beast that she rode caligula
dominus aquatari ex spiritus nu men
ominus demagorgon extermitor regis
hail romulus
hail remulus
caligula
hail claudius
hail flavius
caligula
hail juluis caesarius caligula
when he heard the hooves of madness
that stirred upon his head leaving him for dead
'twas then he'd roam
through the halls of the palace keep
but nevermore to sleep
now the century's past the fates shall tell the tale
woe to the man who would emulate a god caligula
dominus aquatari ex spiritus nu men
ominus demagorgon extermitor regis
hail romulus
hail remulus
caligula
hail claudius
hail flavius
caligula
Hush the neighbors hear you moanin and groanin

Adele vs Fear Factory - A New Machine Of Soul
You've always wanted to hear Adele sing industrial metal ? Or Fear Factory with female vocals ? Well now you can do both simultaneously thanks to DJ Poulpi, the keyboard player from True Belgian Tralala Metal band Caligula : https://www.facebook.com/caligulabelgium
Check out my other mashups :
http://soundcloud.com/dj-poulpi/sets/mashups/
This mashup is called "A New Machine Of Soul". It mixes the vocal track of "Set Fire To The Rain" by Adele and the instrumental track of "Replica" by Fear Factory. It was shared by Fear Factory themselves on their Facebook page. They said : ""This is why we love the Internet...interesting mash-ups!".
I love both songs and I think they fit together perfectly, what do you think ?
Original song "Set Fire To The Rain" by Adele :

Original song "Replica" by Fear Factory :

Caligula (Latin: Gaius Julius Caesar Augustus Germanicus;[1] 31 August AD 12 – 24 January AD 41), also known as Gaius, was Roman Emperor from 37 AD to 41 AD. Caligula was a member of the house of rulers conventionally known as the Julio-Claudian dynasty. Caligula's father Germanicus, the nephew and adopted son of Emperor Tiberius, was a very successful general and one of Rome's most beloved public figures. The young Gaius earned the nickname Caligula (meaning "little soldier's boot", the diminutive form of caliga, n. hob-nailed military boot) from his father's soldiers while accompanying him during his campaigns in Germania.
When Germanicus died at Antioch in 19 AD, his wife Agrippina the Elder returned to Rome with her six children where she became entangled in an increasingly bitter feud with Tiberius. This conflict eventually led to the destruction of her family, with Caligula as the sole male survivor. Unscathed by the deadly intrigues, Caligula accepted the invitation to join the emperor on the island of Capri in 31, where Tiberius himself had withdrawn five years earlier. At the death of Tiberius in 37, Caligula succeeded his great-uncle and adoptive grandfather.
There are few surviving sources on Caligula's reign, although he is described as a noble and moderate ruler during the first two years of his rule. After this, the sources focus upon his cruelty, extravagance, and sexual perversity, presenting him as an insane tyrant. While the reliability of these sources has increasingly been called into question, it is known that during his brief reign, Caligula worked to increase the unconstrained personal power of the emperor (as opposed to countervailing powers within the principate). He directed much of his attention to ambitious construction projects and notoriously luxurious dwellings for himself. However, he initiated the construction of two new aqueducts in Rome: the Aqua Claudia and the Anio Novus. During his reign, the Empire annexed the Kingdom of Mauretania and made it into a province.
In early 41 AD, Caligula was assassinated as the result of a conspiracy involving officers of the Praetorian Guard, as well as members of the Roman Senate and of the imperial court. The conspirators' attempt to use the opportunity to restore the Roman Republic was thwarted: on the same day the Praetorian Guard declared Caligula's uncle Claudius emperor in his place.

Caligula was born in Antium, the third of six surviving children born to Germanicus and Germanicus' second cousin Agrippina the Elder.[2] Gaius's brothers were Nero and Drusus.[2] His sisters were Agrippina the Younger, Julia Drusilla, and Julia Livilla.[2] Gaius was nephew to Claudius (the future emperor).[3]
Agrippina the Elder was the daughter of Marcus Vipsanius Agrippa and Julia the Elder.[2] She was a granddaughter of Augustus and Scribonia.[2]
Youth and early career[link]
File:Cropped color calligula.jpg
A marble bust of Caligula restored to its original colours. The colours were identified from particles trapped in the marble.
As a boy of just two or three, Gaius accompanied his father, Germanicus, on campaigns in the north of Germania.[4] The soldiers were amused that Gaius was dressed in a miniature soldier's uniform, including boots and armor.[4] He was soon given his nickname Caligula, meaning "little (soldier's) boot" in Latin, after the small boots he wore as part of his uniform.[5] Gaius, though, reportedly grew to dislike this nickname.[6]
Suetonius claims that Germanicus was poisoned in Syria by an agent of Tiberius, who viewed Germanicus as a political rival.[7]
After the death of his father, Caligula lived with his mother until her relations with Tiberius deteriorated.[8] Tiberius would not allow Agrippina to remarry for fear her husband would be a rival.[9] Agrippina and Caligula's brother, Nero, were banished in AD 29 on charges of treason.[10][11]
The adolescent Caligula was then sent to live first with his great-grandmother (and Tiberius's mother) Livia.[8] Following Livia's death, he was sent to live with his grandmother Antonia.[8] In AD 30, his brother, Drusus Caesar, was imprisoned on charges of treason and his brother Nero died in exile from either starvation or suicide.[11][12] Suetonius writes that after the banishment of his mother and brothers, Caligula and his sisters were nothing more than prisoners of Tiberius under the close watch of soldiers.[13]
In AD 31, Caligula was remanded to the personal care of Tiberius on Capri, where he lived for six years.[8] To the surprise of many, Caligula was spared by Tiberius.[14] According to historians, Caligula was an excellent natural actor and, recognizing danger, hid all his resentment towards Tiberius.[8][15] An observer said of Caligula, "Never was there a better servant or a worse master!"[8][15]
After he became Emperor, Caligula claimed to have planned to kill Tiberius with a dagger in order to avenge his mother and brother: however, having brought the weapon into Tiberius's bedroom he did not kill the Emperor but instead threw the dagger down on the floor. Supposedly Tiberius knew of this but never dared to do anything about it.[16] Suetonius claims that Caligula was already cruel and vicious: he writes that, when Tiberius brought Caligula to Capri, his purpose was to allow Caligula to live in order that he "...prove the ruin of himself and of all men, and that he was rearing a viper for the Roman People and a Phaëton for the world."[17]
In AD 33, Tiberius gave Caligula an honorary quaestorship, a position he held until his rise to Emperor.[18] Meanwhile, both Caligula's mother and his brother Drusus died in prison.[19][20] Caligula was briefly married to Junia Claudilla in 33, though she died in childbirth the following year.[21] Caligula spent time befriending the Praetorian Prefect, Naevius Sutorius Macro, an important ally.[21] Macro spoke well of Caligula to Tiberius, attempting to quell any ill will or suspicion the emperor felt towards Caligula.[22]
In AD 35, Caligula was named joint heir to Tiberius's estate along with Tiberius Gemellus.[23]
Emperor[link]
Early reign[link]
When Tiberius died on 16 March AD 37, his estate and the titles of the Principate were left to Caligula and Tiberius's own grandson, Gemellus, who were to serve as joint heirs. Although Tiberius was 77 and on his death bed, some ancient historians still conjecture that he was murdered.[21][24] Tacitus writes that the Praetorian Prefect, Macro, smothered Tiberius with a pillow to hasten Caligula's accession, much to the joy of the Roman people,[24] while Suetonius writes that Caligula may have carried out the killing, though this is not recorded by any other ancient historian.[21] Both Philo, who wrote during Tiberius's reign, and Josephus record Tiberius as dying a natural death.[25] Backed by Macro, Caligula had Tiberius' will nullified with regards to Gemellus on grounds of insanity, but otherwise carried out Tiberius' wishes.[26]
Caligula accepted the powers of the Principate as conferred by the Senate and entered Rome on 28 March amid a crowd that hailed him as "our baby" and "our star," among other nicknames.[27] Caligula is described as the first emperor who was admired by everyone in "all the world, from the rising to the setting sun."[28] Caligula was loved by many for being the beloved son of the popular Germanicus,[27] and because he was not Tiberius.[29] It was said by Suetonius that over 160,000 animals were sacrificed during three months of public rejoicing to usher in the new reign.[30][31] Philo describes the first seven months of Caligula's reign as completely blissful.[32]
Caligula's first acts were said to be generous in spirit, though many were political in nature.[26] To gain support, he granted bonuses to those in the military including the Praetorian Guard, city troops and the army outside Italy.[26] He destroyed Tiberius's treason papers, declared that treason trials were a thing of the past and recalled those who had been sent into exile.[33] He helped those who had been harmed by the Imperial tax system, banished certain sexual deviants, and put on lavish spectacles for the public, such as gladiator battles.[34][35] Caligula collected and brought back the bones of his mother and of his brothers and deposited their remains in the tomb of Augustus.[36]
He had his cousin and adopted son Tiberius Gemellus executed – an act that outraged Caligula's and Gemellus's mutual grandmother Antonia Minor. She is said to have committed suicide, although Suetonius hints that Caligula actually poisoned her. He had his father-in-law Marcus Junius Silanus and his brother-in-law Marcus Lepidus executed as well. His uncle Claudius was spared only because Caligula kept him as a laughing stock. His favorite sister Julia Drusilla died in AD 38 of a fever: his other two sisters, Livilla and Agrippina the Younger, were exiled. He hated the fact that he was the grandson of Agrippa, and slandered Augustus by repeating a falsehood that his mother was actually the result of an incestuous relationship between Augustus and his daughter Julia the Elder.[37]
Public reform[link]
In AD 38, Caligula focused his attention on political and public reform. He published the accounts of public funds, which had not been made public during the reign of Tiberius. He aided those who lost property in fires, abolished certain taxes, and gave out prizes to the public at gymnastic events. He allowed new members into the equestrian and senatorial orders.[38]
Perhaps most significantly, he restored the practice of democratic elections.[39] Cassius Dio said that this act "though delighting the rabble, grieved the sensible, who stopped to reflect, that if the offices should fall once more into the hands of the many ... many disasters would result".[40]
During the same year, though, Caligula was criticized for executing people without full trials and for forcing his helper Macro to commit suicide.[41]
Financial crisis and famine[link]
According to Cassius Dio, a financial crisis emerged in AD 39.[41] Suetonius places the beginning of this crisis in 38.[42] Caligula's political payments for support, generosity and extravagance had exhausted the state's treasury. Ancient historians state that Caligula began falsely accusing, fining and even killing individuals for the purpose of seizing their estates.[43]
A number of other desperate measures by Caligula are described by historians. In order to gain funds, Caligula asked the public to lend the state money.[44] Caligula levied taxes on lawsuits, marriage and prostitution.[45] Caligula began auctioning the lives of the gladiators at shows.[43][46] Wills that left items to Tiberius were reinterpreted to leave the items instead to Caligula.[47] Centurions who had acquired property during plundering were forced to turn over spoils to the state.[47]
The current and past highway commissioners were accused of incompetence and embezzlement and forced to repay money.[47] According to Suetonius, in the first year of Caligula's reign he squandered 2,700,000,000 sesterces that Tiberius had amassed.[48] His nephew Nero Caesar both envied and admired the fact that Gaius had run through the vast wealth Tiberius had left him in so short a time.[49]
A brief famine of an unknown size occurred, perhaps caused by this financial crisis, but according to Suetonius a result of Caligula's seizure of public carriages,[43] according to Seneca because grain imports were disturbed by Caligula using boats for a pontoon bridge.[50]
Construction[link]
See also: Caligula's Giant Ship
Despite financial difficulties, Caligula embarked on a number of construction projects during his reign. Some were for the public good, while others were for himself.
Josephus describes as Caligula's greatest contribution to have improved the harbours at Rhegium and Sicily, thereby allowing grain imports from Egypt to increase.[51] These improvements may have been made in response to the famine.[citation needed]
Caligula completed the temple of Augustus and the theatre of Pompey and began an amphitheatre beside the Saepta.[52] He had the imperial palace expanded.[53] He began the aqueducts Aqua Claudia and Anio Novus, which Pliny the Elder considered engineering marvels.[54] He built a large racetrack known as the circus of Gaius and Nero and had an Egyptian obelisk (now known as the Vatican Obelisk) transported by sea and erected in the middle of Rome.[55]
At Syracuse, he repaired the city walls and the temples of the gods.[52] He had new roads built and pushed to keep roads in good condition.[56] He had planned to rebuild the palace of Polycrates at Samos, to finish the temple of Didymaean Apollo at Ephesus and to found a city high up in the Alps.[52] He planned to dig a canal through the Isthmus in Greece and sent a chief centurion to survey the work.[52]
In 39, Caligula performed a spectacular stunt by ordering a temporary floating bridge to be built using ships as pontoons, stretching for over two miles from the resort of Baiae to the neighboring port of Puteoli.[57] It was said that the bridge was to rival that of Persian King Xerxes' crossing of the Hellespont.[57] Caligula, a man who could not swim,[58] then proceeded to ride his favorite horse, Incitatus, across, wearing the breastplate of Alexander the Great.[57] This act was in defiance of a prediction by Tiberius's soothsayer Thrasyllus of Mendes that Caligula had "no more chance of becoming emperor than of riding a horse across the Bay of Baiae".[57]
Caligula had two large ships constructed for himself, which were recovered from the bottom of Lake Nemi during the dictatorship of Benito Mussolini. The ships are among the largest vessels in the ancient world. The smaller ship was designed as a temple dedicated to Diana.
The larger ship was essentially an elaborate floating palace that counted marble floors and plumbing among its amenities. Thirteen years after being raised, the ships were burned during an attack in the Second World War, and almost nothing remains of the hulls, though many archeological treasures remain intact in the museum at Lake Nemi and in the Museo Nazionale Romano (Palazzo Massimo) at Rome.
Feud with the Senate[link]
In AD 39, relations between Caligula and the Roman Senate deteriorated.[59] The subject of their disagreement is unknown. A number of factors, though, aggravated this feud. The Senate had become accustomed to ruling without an emperor between the departure of Tiberius for Capri in AD 26 and Caligula's accession.[60] Additionally, Tiberius's treason trials had eliminated a number of pro-Julian senators such as Asinius Gallus.[60]
Caligula reviewed Tiberius's records of treason trials and decided that numerous senators, based on their actions during these trials, were not trustworthy.[59] He ordered a new set of investigations and trials.[59] He replaced the consul and had several senators put to death.[61] Suetonius reports that other senators were degraded by being forced to wait on him and run beside his chariot.[61]
Soon after his break with the Senate, Caligula was met with a number of additional conspiracies against him.[62] A conspiracy involving his brother-in-law was foiled in late 39.[62] Soon afterwards, the governor of Germany, Gnaeus Cornelius Lentulus Gaetulicus, was executed for connections to a conspiracy.[62]
Western expansion[link]
In AD 40, Caligula expanded the Roman Empire into Mauretania and made a significant attempt at expanding into Britannia – even challenging Neptune in his campaign. The conquest of Britannia was fully realized by his successors.
Mauretania[link]
Mauretania was a client kingdom of Rome ruled by Ptolemy of Mauretania. Caligula invited Ptolemy to Rome and then had him suddenly executed.[63] Mauretania was annexed by Caligula and subsequently divided into two provinces, Mauritania Tingitana and Mauretania Caesariensis, separated by the river Malua.[64] Pliny claims that division was the work of Caligula, but Dio states that in 42 CE an uprising took place, which was subdued by Gaius Suetonius Paulinus and Gnaeus Hosidius Geta, only after which the division took place.[65] This confusion might mean that Caligula originally made the decision to divide the province, but the implementation was postponed because of the rebellion.[66] The first known equestrian governor of the two provinces was one Marcus Fadius Celer Flavianus, in office in 44 CE.[66]
Details on the Mauretanian events of 39–44 are unclear. Cassius Dio had written an entire chapter on the annexation of Mauretania by Caligula, but it is now lost.[67] Caligula's move seemingly had a strictly personal political motive – that is, fear and jealousy of his cousin Ptolemy – and thus the expansion was not set about in response to pressing military or economic needs.[68] However, the rebellion of Tacfarinas had shown how exposed Africa Proconsularis was to its west and how the Mauretanian client kings were unable to provide protection to the province, and it is thus possible that Caligula's expansion was a prudent response to potential future threats.[66]
Britannia[link]
There seemed to be a northern campaign to Britannia that was aborted.[67] This campaign is derided by ancient historians with accounts of Gauls dressed up as Germanic tribesmen at his triumph and Roman troops ordered to collect seashells as "spoils of the sea".[69] The few primary sources disagree on what precisely occurred. Modern historians have put forward numerous theories in an attempt to explain these actions. This trip to the English Channel could have merely been a training and scouting mission.[70] The mission may have been to accept the surrender of the British chieftain Adminius.[71] "Seashells", or conchae in Latin, may be a metaphor for something else such as female genitalia (perhaps the troops visited brothels) or boats (perhaps they captured several small British boats).[72]
Claims of divinity[link]
When several kings came to Rome to pay their respects to him and argued about their nobility of descent, he cried out "Let there be one Lord, one King".[73] In AD 40, Caligula began implementing very controversial policies that introduced religion into his political role. Caligula began appearing in public dressed as various gods and demigods such as Hercules, Mercury, Venus and Apollo.[74] Reportedly, he began referring to himself as a god when meeting with politicians and he was referred to as Jupiter on occasion in public documents.[75][76]
A sacred precinct was set apart for his worship at Miletus in the province of Asia and two temples were erected for worship of him in Rome.[76] The Temple of Castor and Pollux on the Forum was linked directly to the Imperial residence on the Palatine and dedicated to Caligula.[76][77] He would appear here on occasion and present himself as a god to the public. Caligula had the heads removed from various statues of gods and replaced with his own in various temples.[78] It is said that he wished to be worshipped as Neos Helios, the New Sun. Indeed, he was represented as a sun god on Egyptian coins.[79]
Caligula's religious policy was a departure from that of his predecessors. According to Cassius Dio, living Emperors could be worshipped as divine in the east and dead Emperors could be worshipped as divine in Rome.[80] Augustus had the public worship his spirit on occasion, but Dio describes this as an extreme act that emperors generally shied away from.[80] Caligula took things a step further and had those in Rome, including Senators, worship him as a physical living god.[81]
Eastern policy[link]
Caligula needed to quell several riots and conspiracies in the eastern territories during his reign. Aiding him in his actions was his good friend, Herod Agrippa, who became governor of the territories of Batanaea and Trachonitis after Caligula became emperor in AD 37.[82]
The cause of tensions in the east was complicated, involving the spread of Greek culture, Roman law and the rights of Jews.
Caligula did not trust the prefect of Egypt, Aulus Avilius Flaccus. Flaccus had been loyal to Tiberius, had conspired against Caligula's mother and had connections with Egyptian separatists.[83] In AD 38, Caligula sent Agrippa to Alexandria unannounced to check on Flaccus.[84] According to Philo, the visit was met with jeers from the Greek population who saw Agrippa as the king of the Jews.[85] Flaccus tried to placate both the Greek population and Caligula by having statues of the emperor placed in Jewish synagogues.[86] As a result, riots broke out in the city.[87] Caligula responded by removing Flaccus from his position and executing him.[88]
In AD 39, Agrippa accused Herod Antipas, the tetrarch of Galilee and Perea, of planning a rebellion against Roman rule with the help of Parthia. Herod Antipas confessed and Caligula exiled him. Agrippa was rewarded with his territories.[89]
Riots again erupted in Alexandria in AD 40 between Jews and Greeks.[90] Jews were accused of not honoring the emperor.[90] Disputes occurred in the city of Jamnia.[91] Jews were angered by the erection of a clay altar and destroyed it.[91] In response, Caligula ordered the erection of a statue of himself in the Jewish Temple of Jerusalem,[92] a demand in conflict with Jewish monotheism.[93] In this context, Philo wrote that Caligula "regarded the Jews with most especial suspicion, as if they were the only persons who cherished wishes opposed to his".[93]
The governor of Syria, Publius Petronius, fearing civil war if the order were carried out, delayed implementing it for nearly a year.[94] Agrippa finally convinced Caligula to reverse the order.[90]
Scandals[link]
Surviving sources present a number of stories about Caligula that illustrate cruelty and insanity.
The contemporary sources, Philo of Alexandria and Seneca the Younger, describe an insane emperor who was self-absorbed, angry, killed on a whim, and who indulged in too much spending and sex.[95] He is accused of sleeping with other men's wives and bragging about it,[96] killing for mere amusement,[97] deliberately wasting money on his bridge, causing starvation,[98] and wanting a statue of himself erected in the Temple of Jerusalem for his worship.[92] Once at some games at which he was presiding, he ordered his guards to throw an entire section of the crowd into the arena during intermission to be eaten by animals because there were no criminals to be prosecuted and he was bored.[99]
While repeating the earlier stories, the later sources of Suetonius and Cassius Dio provide additional tales of insanity. They accuse Caligula of incest with his sisters, Agrippina the Younger, Drusilla and Livilla, and say he prostituted them to other men.[100] They state he sent troops on illogical military exercises,[67][101] turned the palace into a brothel,[44] and most famously, planned or promised to make his horse, Incitatus, a consul,[102] and actually appointed him a priest.[76]
The validity of these accounts is debatable. In Roman political culture, insanity and sexual perversity were often presented hand-in-hand with poor government.[103]
Assassination and aftermath[link]
Caligula's actions as emperor were described as being especially harsh to the Senate, the nobility and the equestrian order.[104] According to Josephus, these actions led to several failed conspiracies against Caligula.[105] Eventually, a successful murder was planned by officers within the Praetorian Guard led by Cassius Chaerea.[106] The plot is described as having been planned by three men, but many in the Senate, army and equestrian order were said to have been informed of it and involved in it.[107]
According to Josephus, Chaerea had political motivations for the assassination.[108] Suetonius sees the motive in Caligula calling Chaerea derogatory names.[109] Caligula considered Chaerea effeminate because of a weak voice and for not being firm with tax collection.[110] Caligula would mock Chaerea with watchwords like "Priapus" and "Venus".[111]
On 24 January 41, Chaerea and other guardsmen accosted Caligula while he was addressing an acting troupe of young men during a series of games and dramatics held for the Divine Augustus.[112] Details on the events vary somewhat from source to source, but they agree that Chaerea was first to stab Caligula, followed by a number of conspirators.[113] Suetonius records that Caligula's death was similar to that of Julius Caesar. He states that both the elder Gaius Julius Caesar (Julius Caesar) and the younger Gaius Julius Caesar (Caligula) were stabbed 30 times by conspirators led by a man named Cassius (Cassius Longinus and Cassius Chaerea).[114]
The cryptoporticus (underground corridor) where this event would have taken place was discovered beneath the imperial palaces on the Palatine Hill.[115] By the time Caligula's loyal Germanic guard responded, the emperor was already dead. The Germanic guard, stricken with grief and rage, responded with a rampaging attack on the assassins, conspirators, innocent senators and bystanders alike.[116]
The Senate attempted to use Caligula's death as an opportunity to restore the Republic.[117] Chaerea attempted to convince the military to support the Senate.[118] The military, though, remained loyal to the office of the emperor.[118] The grieving Roman people assembled and demanded that Caligula's murderers be brought to justice.[119] Uncomfortable with lingering imperial support, the assassins sought out and stabbed Caligula's wife, Caesonia, and killed their young daughter, Julia Drusilla, by smashing her head against a wall.[120] They were unable to reach Caligula's uncle, Claudius, who was spirited out of the city, after being found by a soldier,[121] to a nearby Praetorian camp.[122]
Claudius became emperor after procuring the support of the Praetorian guard and ordered the execution of Chaerea and any other known conspirators involved in the death of Caligula.[123] According to Suetonius, Caligula's body was placed under turf until it was burned and entombed by his sisters. He was buried within the Mausoleum of Augustus; in 410 during the Sack of Rome the tomb's ashes were scattered.
Legacy[link]
Historiography[link]
The history of Caligula's reign is extremely problematic as only two sources contemporary with Caligula have survived — the works of Philo and Seneca. Philo's works, On the Embassy to Gaius and Flaccus, give some details on Caligula's early reign, but mostly focus on events surrounding the Jewish population in Judea and Egypt with whom he sympathizes. Seneca's various works give mostly scattered anecdotes on Caligula's personality. Seneca was almost put to death by Caligula in AD 39 likely due to his associations with conspirators.[124]
At one time, there were detailed contemporaneous histories on Caligula, but they are now lost. Additionally, the historians who wrote them are described as biased, either overly critical or praising of Caligula.[125] Nonetheless, these lost primary sources, along with the works of Seneca and Philo, were the basis of surviving secondary and tertiary histories on Caligula written by the next generations of historians. A few of the contemporaneous historians are known by name. Fabius Rusticus and Cluvius Rufus both wrote condemning histories on Caligula that are now lost. Fabius Rusticus was a friend of Seneca who was known for historical embellishment and misrepresentation.[126] Cluvius Rufus was a senator involved in the assassination of Caligula.[127]
Caligula's sister, Agrippina the Younger, wrote an autobiography that certainly included a detailed explanation of Caligula's reign, but it too is lost. Agrippina was banished by Caligula for her connection to Marcus Lepidus, who conspired against Caligula.[62] The inheritance of Nero, Agrippina's son and the future emperor, was seized by Caligula. Gaetulicus, a poet, produced a number of flattering writings about Caligula, but they too are lost.
The bulk of what is known of Caligula comes from Suetonius and Cassius Dio. Suetonius wrote his history on Caligula 80 years after his death, while Cassius Dio wrote his history over 180 years after Caligula's death. Cassius Dio's work is invaluable because it alone gives a loose chronology of Caligula's reign.
A handful of other sources add a limited perspective on Caligula. Josephus gives a detailed description of Caligula's assassination. Tacitus provides some information on Caligula's life under Tiberius. In a now lost portion of his Annals, Tacitus gave a detailed history of Caligula. Pliny the Elder's Natural History has a few brief references to Caligula.
There are few surviving sources on Caligula and no surviving source paints Caligula in a favorable light. The paucity of sources has resulted in significant gaps in the reign of Caligula. Little is written on the first two years of Caligula's reign. Additionally, there are only limited details on later significant events, such as the annexation of Mauretania, Caligula's military actions in Britannia, and his feud with the Roman Senate.
Health[link]
All surviving sources, except Pliny the Elder, characterize Caligula as insane. However, it is not known whether they are speaking figuratively or literally. Additionally, given Caligula's unpopularity among the surviving sources, it is difficult to separate fact from fiction. Recent sources are divided in attempting to ascribe a medical reason for his behavior, citing as possibilities encephalitis, epilepsy or meningitis. The question of whether or not Caligula was insane remains unanswered.
Philo of Alexandria, Josephus and Seneca state that Caligula was insane, but describe this madness as a personality trait that came through experience.[89][128][129] Seneca states that Caligula became arrogant, angry and insulting once becoming emperor and uses his personality flaws as examples his readers can learn from.[130] According to Josephus, power made Caligula incredibly conceited and led him to think he was a god.[89] Philo of Alexandria reports that Caligula became ruthless after nearly dying of an illness in the eighth month of his reign in AD 37.[131] Juvenal reports he was given a magic potion that drove him insane.
Suetonius said that Caligula suffered from "falling sickness", or epilepsy, when he was young.[132] Modern historians have theorized that Caligula lived with a daily fear of seizures.[133] Despite swimming being a part of imperial education, Caligula could not swim.[134] Epileptics are encouraged not to swim in open waters because unexpected fits in such difficult rescue circumstances can be fatal.[135] Additionally, Caligula reportedly talked to the full moon.[61] Epilepsy was long associated with the moon.[136]
Some modern historians think that Caligula suffered from hyperthyroidism.[137] This diagnosis is mainly attributed to Caligula's irritability and his "stare" as described by Pliny the Elder.
Possible rediscovery of burial site[link]
On 17 January 2011, police in Nemi, Italy, announced that they believed they had discovered the site of Caligula's burial, after arresting a thief caught smuggling a statue which they believed to be of the emperor.[138] The claim has been met with skepticism by Cambridge historian Mary Beard.[139]

In popular culture[link]
Caligula, by French author Albert Camus, is a play in which Caligula returns after deserting the palace for three days and three nights following the death of his beloved sister, Drusilla. The young emperor then uses his unfettered power to 'bring the impossible into the realm of the likely'.
In the novel I, Claudius by English writer Robert Graves, Caligula is presented as being a murderous sociopath from his childhood, who became clinically insane early in his reign. At the age of only seven, he drove his father Germanicus to despair and death by secretly terrorizing him. Graves's Caligula commits incest with all three of his sisters and is implied to have murdered Drusilla.
American actor Jay Robinson famously portrayed a sinister and scene-stealing Caligula in two epic films of the 1950s, The Robe (1953) and its sequel Demetrius and the Gladiators (1954).
Caligula has been played by Ralph Bates in the 1968 ITV television series The Caesars; John Hurt in the 1976 BBC television series I, Claudius; John McEnery in the 1985 miniseries A.D.; Szabolcs Hajdu in the 1996 film Caligula; and John Simm in the 2004 miniseries Imperium Nerone. In Muriel Spark's 1976 novel The Takeover the eccentric Hubert Mallindaine believes himself to be a direct descendant of Caligula.
In 1978, British comic 2000AD ran a Judge Dredd comic strip featuring Chief Judge Cal, loosely based on the real life Roman emperor.
In the in-game lore of the videogame series The Elder Scrolls, there existed an eccentric emperor named Emperor Pelagius Septim III who seems to be heavily based upon Caligula.
A feature-length historical film Caligula was completed in 1979, in which Malcolm McDowell played the lead role. The film alienated audiences with extremely explicit sex and violence and received extremely negative reviews.[140] Emlyn Williams was cast as Caligula in the never-completed 1937 film I, Claudius, and Courtney Love appeared as Caligula in a fake trailer for Gore Vidal's Caligula, ostensibly a remake of the 1979 film, but actually a parodic short film by conceptual artist Francesco Vezzoli.[141]
The Smiths song "Heaven Knows I'm Miserable Now" refers to Caligula: "What she asked of me at the end of the day/Caligula would have blushed".
In episode 73, season 4, entitled Working for Caligula of Two and a Half Men, the character of Berta said "I'm working for Caligula," while picking up after Charlie who has resumed his hedonistic lifestyle after his brother Alan moved out.[142]
The play The Reckoning of Kit and Little Boots by Nat Cassidy, examines the lives of the Elizabethan playwright Christopher Marlowe and Caligula, with the fictional conceit that Marlowe was working on a play about Caligula around the time of his own murder. It emphasizes the similarities between the two characters—both stabbed to death at 29, both in part as a result to their controversial perspectives on religion. The play focuses on Caligula's love for his sister Drusilla, and his deep-rooted loathing for Tiberius. It received its world premiere in New York City in June 2008.[143][144]
In 2011 Avatar Press began publishing a comic book Caligula written by horror comic writer David Lapham.
Adult Swim created a game called Viva Caligula for their official website. This game follows the scandalous rumors about Caligula. You control Caligula and your mission is to destroy anything in sight. Each letter on the keyboard is a different means of killing the various enemies he encounters.

Bruno Nicolai (Rome, May 20, 1926 - Rome, August 16, 1991) was an Italian film music composer, orchestra director and musical editor most active in the 1960s through the 1980s. While studying piano and composition at the Santa Cecilia Conservatory in Rome, he befriended Ennio Morricone and formed a long working relationship, with Nicolai eventually conducting for and co-scoring films with Morricone. Nicolai also scored a number of giallo exploitation films and wrote a large number of scores for director Jess Franco.

He is best known for his roles as Sam Tyler in Life on Mars and the Master in Doctor Who, but has also starred in television dramas such as Cracker, State of Play, Crime and Punishment, and Exile.

Early life[link]
Simm was born in Leeds, West Riding of Yorkshire. The eldest of three, he grew up in Nelson, Lancashire. And went to Edge End High School in the same town. The family lived in a series of places around the northwest, including Manchester, Colne, Burnley and Blackpool. His father, Ronald Simm, was a musician and from the age of 12, Simm joined his father on stage in the working men’s clubs singing and playing the guitar.
In 1986 Simm enrolled at the Blackpool and The Fylde College in Lytham St. Annes for three years and starred in Guys and Dolls and West Side Story at Blackpool's Grand Theatre. However, he soon decided that musical theatre didn't interest him, so he joined an amateur dramatic group and honed his skills in his spare time, playing the title roles in Billy Liar and Amadeus. He then moved to London to train at the Drama Centre London at the age of 19, where he studied the Stanislavski School of Method acting, and graduated in 1992.
Career[link]
Independently of his acting, throughout the 1990s, Simm was a founding member, songwriter and guitarist with the rock band Magic Alex[1] (named after the Beatles self-styled electronics wizard "Magic Alex" Mardas). The group played support on two British tours with Echo & the Bunnymen. Plus, Simm plays guitar on the album Slideling, by his friend Echo & the Bunnymen singer Ian McCulloch. Simm also played lead guitar on a few of McCulloch's solo live shows, including one at Wembley arena as main support to Coldplay. Magic Alex released one album, Dated and Sexist, before splitting in 2005.
Simm made his professional acting debut in 1992 with the role of Joby Johnson in an episode of the TV series Rumpole of the Bailey (there had been an earlier part in the BBC drama Between the Lines where Simm was in one scene as PC Witty, but the scene was cut). There then followed a variety of roles during which time he honed his craft in front of the camera, including a psycho in The Bill, a lovestruck schoolboy in Heartbeat, and a drugged up burglar in The Locksmith. He also made two series of the BBC sitcom Men of the World, playing the lead role of Kendle Bains opposite David Threlfall. His next project saw him take the role of Gary Kingston, a deluded murderer, in Chiller.
In 1995, Simm played the troubled teenager Bill Preece in the "Best Boys" episode of the acclaimed ITV police drama, Cracker, opposite Robbie Coltrane.[2] This is considered his breakthrough role. The series was created by Jimmy McGovern but Simm's episode was written by producer Paul Abbott. He also made his feature film debut in Boston Kickout beating Dennis Hopper to the Best Actor award at the Valencia Film Festival. In 1996, he made his professional stage debut in the Simon Bent play Goldhawk Road at the Bush Theatre, directed by Paul Miller. In 1997, he won the lead role of Danny Kavanagh in the first series of The Lakes, a BBC series written by Jimmy McGovern. In 1999, he starred in the second series of The Lakes as well as appearing as Jip in the award-winning cult clubbing film Human Traffic and Michael Winterbottom's acclaimed Wonderland.
In 2000, he starred in the opening episode of the BBC drama Clocking Off, written by Paul Abbott, with whom he would work again in 2002, when he starred as 'Cal McCaffrey' in the multi award-winning political thriller series State of Play. Both these series also feature Philip Glenister, with whom he would later star in Life on Mars and Mad Dogs. Simm also played the lead role of loan shark John Parlour in Tony Marchant's Never Never for Channel 4. In 2001, he played Oz in a Caleb Lindsay film, Understanding Jane.
In 2002, Simm featured in another Michael Winterbottom film, 24 Hour Party People, as New Order frontman Bernard Sumner. At a live concert in Finsbury Park that same year, Simm sang the Joy Division song "Digital" onstage with New Order (a few years later, he would be chosen by the band to induct Joy Division/New Order into the rock and roll hall of fame). It was also this year that he played Raskolnikov in the BBC adaptation of Crime and Punishment adapted by Tony Marchant. Marchant also wrote The Knight's Tale, one of a series of modern reworkings of The Canterbury Tales, in which Simm played Ace opposite Chiwetel Ejiofor and Keeley Hawes. Later that year Simm starred opposite Christina Ricci and John Hurt in the film Miranda.
In 2004, he played the researcher and charity investigator Daniel Appleton in the BAFTA award-winning Channel 4 drama Sex Traffic. This hard-hitting two-parter followed the plight of two young Moldovan sisters sold into sexual slavery. After reuniting with Shaun Parkes in Howard Davies' production of Joe Penhall's Blue/Orange, in which he played Dr Bruce Flaherty opposite Brian Cox, Simm starred as Detective Inspector Sam Tyler in the 2006 BBC series Life on Mars playing a police officer apparently sent back in time to 1973. The show won the Pioneer Audience Award for Best Programme at the 2007 BAFTA TV Awards, Simm was nominated but lost out on the award for Best Actor.[3] He left after the second series, feeling that he had taken the role as far as he could.
His next project, in March 2007, was The Yellow House for Channel 4, a biographical drama produced by Talkback Thames, based on the book of the same name by Martin Gayford about the turbulent relationship of artists Vincent van Gogh (Simm) and Paul Gauguin (John Lynch).[4] In the same year, Simm also returned to the theatre as the title character in Paul Miller's acclaimed Bush Theatre staging of Simon Bent's version of Elling, a comedy about two men just out of psychiatric hospital adjusting to 'normal life' and to each other. Following positive press reviews and an extended, sell-out run, the production was transferred to the Trafalgar Studios 1 in July 2007[5] and Simm was nominated for an Olivier Award for his performance.
In 2007, Simm was chosen by Russell T Davies to play the Master, the nemesis of The Doctor in the long-running BBC series Doctor Who. He appeared in the final three episodes of series three: "Utopia", "The Sound of Drums" and "Last of the Time Lords". He reprised that role in the 2009 "The End of Time" two-part special.[6][7][8] In 2008, Simm played Edward Sexby in The Devil's Whore, a four-part English Civil War epic for Channel 4. Shot on location in South Africa, the drama also features Dominic West as Oliver Cromwell and Andrea Riseborough in the title role. He performed at The Royal Variety Performance with Alexander Armstrong and Ben Miller, and starred in the film Skellig, with Tim Roth and Kelly Macdonald, broadcast on Sky1 in April 2009.
Simm is involved in an ongoing project with director Michael Winterbottom with a working title of Seven Days. It is being filmed in real time over five years. Simm returned to the west end stage in Autumn of 2009 to critical acclaim, starring opposite Ian Hart, Lucy Cohu and Kerry Fox in the Andrew Bovell play Speaking in Tongues, at the Duke of York's theatre. In September 2010 John Simm played Hamlet at the Sheffield Crucible[9] The production was a sellout and broke box office records for the Theatre.[citation needed]
In 2011, Simm starred in Mad Dogs on Sky1. Simm plays Baxter in a project that reunited him with Philip Glenister and Marc Warren along with Max Beesley and Ben Chaplin. Mad Dogs became a critical and ratings success and received a BAFTA nomination for best Drama serial, a second and third series was commissioned. Mad Dogs 2 was shot in Mallorca and Ibiza June/July/Aug 2011, and appeared on Sky 1 in January 2012, the same time as Mad Dogs 3 was being shot in Cape Town, South Africa.
Broadcast on BBC One from 1–3 May 2011, Simm starred as Tom Rondstadt in Exile, with Jim Broadbent playing his father, his performance earned him a 2nd BAFTA nomination for best actor.
From 17 May to 9th June 2012, Simm will star as Jerry[10] in a revival of Harold Pinter's Betrayal at the Crucible Theatre. He will star alongside Ruth Gemmell and Colin Tierney.[11]
Personal life[link]
Simm married actress Kate Magowan in April 2004 in the Forest of Dean; they have a son and a daughter.[12] Simm is a passionate supporter of Manchester United.[13]

Giovanni Brass (born 26 March 1933), better known as Tinto Brass, is an Italian filmmaker. He is noted especially for his work in the erotic genre, with films such as Caligula, Così fan tutte (released under the English title All Ladies Do It), Paprika, Monella (Frivolous Lola) and Trasgredire. On Sunday, 18 April 2010, he suffered an intracranial hemorrhage.[1]
Contents |
Life[link]
His nickname Tintoretto (later shortened to Tinto) was given by his grandfather Italico Brass, a renowned Gorizian painter of Austrian (German) descent.[2][3] Throughout the 1960s and 1970s he created many avant-garde films, including Nerosubianco, L'urlo, and La Vacanza. However, he is best known for his erotic epics, Salon Kitty, The Key, Senso '45 and Caligula. The latter film was a collaboration with celebrated author Gore Vidal, Franco Rossellini and Penthouse magazine publisher Bob Guccione. However, many consider Caligula not to be a true Tinto Brass film since post-production was not handled by Brass. The director demanded that his name be stricken from the credits after Guccione inserted hardcore sex scenes and recut much of the film's story and theme structure. Despite this, the film contains many of Brass' trademarks and remains his most widely viewed work (and the highest-grossing Italian film released in the United States). Well into his seventies, he continued to make films.[4]
In 1972, he was a member of the jury at the 22nd Berlin International Film Festival.[5]
He is an atheist.[6]
Style[link]
Brass' films follow an impressionistic style – they tend not to show immense landscapes, but bits and pieces of the scenery and peripheral characters and objects through pans and zooms, thus imitating how the viewer might see the events if they were actually present. This also gives the films an extraordinarily rapid pace. He often uses a television-like multicam method of shooting, with at least three cameras running at once, each focusing on something else.
There are many other directorial trademarks throughout his films. From 1976's Salon Kitty onwards, mirrors play a large part in the set design. Sometimes he even goes as far as to begin a scene with a mirror shot, then pan over to the action being reflected, giving a disorienting feeling. His erotic films – especially The Key, Miranda and All Ladies Do It – often accentuate women's buttocks and Pubic hair, almost to the point of fetishizing those particular physical features.
Brass' films in the 1980s and early 1990s had mainly been adaptations of famous erotic literary works, namely The Key (La chiave), The Mistress of the Inn (Miranda), the novel Le lettere da Capri by Mario Soldati (Capriccio), Fanny Hill (Paprika), and the novel L'uomo che guarda by Alberto Moravia (The Voyeur), while 2002 film Senso '45 is an adaptation of Senso, previously filmed by Luchino Visconti.
He almost always works in a cameo for his friend Osiride Pevarello and, in the recent years, himself as well.

The Dice Tower[link]
Since May 2005, Vasel has co-hosted The Dice Tower, a podcast about board games and wargames. Originally, Vasel represented players who prefer designer games, while Joe Steadman advocated for those who prefer wargames. Steadman left the show in May 2006 after the 50th episode. Vasel, hosting alone with occasional input from Sam Healey for a few shows, rearranged the format to include recorded segments by guest reviewers and players. Gradually Healey began to take a larger role and was eventually promoted to co-host. Healey has since left the show and been replaced by the show's voice-over man, Eric Summerer.
Each episode of the podcast includes several regular segments and several occasional segments. The core of every episode is the "Gaming Top Ten", where Vasel and Summerer provide their top ten games in a particular category. Most shows start with Vasel and Summerer discussing the games that they have recently played. News from the boardgaming world usually follows, which is in turn followed by a segment from German contributor Moritz Eggert. The podcast also features frequent contests, where listeners can enter to win one or more games from a sponsoring company.
The Dice Tower web site features past top-ten lists and Vasel's in-depth reviews of boardgames. Vasel's reviews are also used by board game publishers and retailers for promotion of their games.[5][6]
The Jack Vasel Memorial Fund[link]
Following the loss of his infant son Jack Vasel at the end of 2010, Tom Vasel established the Jack Vasel Memorial Fund, at www.jackvasel.org. The fund is a not-for-profit with a simple goal: raising and distributing funds to help gamers in their hour of need.
