He wrote about the daily life in Rome, politics, and biographies of famous poets and other historians. But he’s best remembered for his biographies of the Twelve Caesars, \u003cb\u003estarting with Julius Caesar and ending at Domitian. \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eDe vita Caesarum, \u003c\/i\u003eLatin for “On the Life of the Caesars,” is better known as The Twelve Caesars. Suetonius wrote it in 121 A.D. at the height of the reign of Hadrian. Suetonius was apparently Hadrian’s secretary, but the frequently traveling emperor apparently provided Suetonius enough down time to put in a serious amount of research at Rome’s imperial archives to study the lives of the Caesars. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eDe Illustribus Grammaticis\u003c\/i\u003e (\"Lives Of The Grammarians\"); is Suetonius’ small biography covering 20 brief lives of Rome’s best grammarians.
