The Roman Emperor Claudius in Historiography | Dr. Andrew Traver

In this episode that kicks off our series on the Roman Emperor Tiberius Claudius Caesar Augustus Germanicus, we start off by examining the most important aspect of his history and that is historiography. From what the ancient sources | Roman historians told us to his often unfair treatment by later and modern historians, Dr. Andrew Traver does an excellent job in showing us the man behind the image, the real Claudius in all of his tragedies, ailments and triumphs.   Support Dr. Traver and his works at these links below!

Hello fellow amateur historians and ancient/medieval scholars!!! My name is Nick Barksdale and like you, I have a passion for ancient and medieval history and so, I created this Podcast / YouTube Channel "The Study of Antiquity and the Middle Ages." The focus of this podcast is history plain and simple and all of the facts and theories that come with it. From academic lectures and to interviews, I want to talk about what we love and hopefully even touch on subjects you haven't even thought about.
