Historical background


NERO and CLAUDIUS

(+54)

Claudius, who already had a son by Messalina, Britannicus, nevertheless adopted Nero, son of his new wife and niece, Agrippina. Nero, grandson of Germanicus, was named Caesar and Prince of Youth. On the death of his father-in-law and great-uncle, he girded the crown of the Caesars without any problem.
