Paperback. Condition: new. Screen, Andrew (illustrator). Paperback. The central humorous theme is the art of deception, imagination and illusion in the year CE 221. Will Julia succeed as temptress? Will Marcus submit? Romans and Greeks unite - visit Capri - attend Circus Maximus and see dancing Satyrs. The story also involves a Trojan War weekend party. The friends take part in fighting, not all willingly. Those having roles as gods and goddesses seem to enjoy the mysteries of appearing just when the action is at its greatest and producing unexpected results. It is a time when the emperor, young Elagabalus, became ruler of the Roman Empire, Elagabalus liked to change from different wives. He also had a husband and for a short time a male lover. But was also mainly interested in providing a goddess statue for his baetyl god Elagabaal. The Roman Empire itself seemed the least of his interests. There are a few flirtations, love affairs, and light-hearted questions about Epicureanism, Sophists, and whether servants are cleverer that their masters. This item is printed on demand.
