About this listen

Over the years, Octavian's institutional position was further and gradually elaborated; it was a slow but geometric process, very skilled.

This truly sublime ambiguity was Augustus' masterpiece, making him one of the greatest politicians of all times, if not the greatest, and allowing him to hold power firmly throughout his life.
