		He has gone down in history, perhaps unfairly, as Rome's most tyrannical emperor; but since we lack Tacitus' account of his short reign, it is impossible to know the truth behind the wilder stories.
		Gaius was the son of the popular Germanicus and the great-grandson of Augustus - with the blood of Augustus from both sides of his family.
		The 24-year-old emperor was initially hugely popular - he was the son of Germanicus, had the blood of Augustus in his veins, and was a welcome change from the dour, absent Tiberius.

		Germanicus Julius Caesar, conqueror of Germany, was sent to command Rome's eastern provinces and died in Antioch in A.D. 18, poisoned - so it was believed - by a jealous Roman governor.
		The target of this socially ascending wave of resolution is not only Germanicus himself - whose exhausted head on the pillow vividly predicts the style of Gericault nearly two hundred years later - but his little son, whose blue cloak matches the general's; the women suffer, but the boy learns, remembers and will act.
		The more Germanicus unfolds, the more one realizes why Bernini, on his visit to Louis XIV in Paris, declared Poussin the only French artist who really mattered: il grande favoleggiatore, "the great storyteller." For the means of the painting match its narrative.

		C. Iulius Caesar, p.187-188, the editor treats with some impatience the question whether a Julius Caesar' mentioned in Firmicus Maternus's astrological handbook as the source of a few verses' relevant to astrology is the Dictator or Germanicus Caesar, son of Drusus and translator of Aratus's Phainomena.
		The identification of the verses in question hangs on the realization that Firmicus is interested in material that can be used for basic instruction in astrology and, since he has a strong nationalistic concern for the Latin contribution to this science, he is interested in material written in Latin.
		Unless we want to ascribe a translation of Aratus to the Dictator, we must conclude that in both passages Germanicus Caesar is meant.

		The emperor Tiberius was succeeded by Gaius Julius Caesar Germanicus, the only male member of the family of the popular Germanicus to survive the plots of Tiberius and his adviser, Sejanus, who had feared their interference with the succession.
		Officially known as Gaius Caesar, he accompanied his father on his assignment at the Rhine frontier, where the soldiers nicknamed him Caligula or Little Boot for the miniature military outfit he wore there.
		As emperor he became increasingly autocratic, cruel, and extravagant, and his troops assassinated him in A.D. Few of Caligula's coins refer to specific events in his reign, emphasizing instead his family and particularly his relationship to Augustus.

		Gaius Julius Caesar Germanicus was the third son of Germanicus (nephew of Tiberius) and Agrippina the elder and was born at Antium in AD 12.
		It was during his stay with his parents on the German frontier, when he was between two and four, that his miniature versions of military sandals (caligae), caused the soldiers to call him Caligula, 'little sandal'.
		But it was above all the army which, very loyal to the house of Germanicus, sought to see Caligula as sole ruler.
