Classicist and ancient world whiz Mary Beard will head to Seattle to chat about her forthcoming book, Emperor of Rome: Ruling the Ancient Roman World, so make sure to bring your Roman Empire-obsessed boyfriend. Beard, who recently retired from her post as a classics professor at Cambridge, is a leading expert on all things Roman history—her book SPQR: A History of Ancient Rome was a finalist for the National Book Critics Circle Award. She zeros in on the Empire's emperors in her new book, from Julius Caesar (assassinated 44 BCE) to Alexander Severus (assassinated 235 CE).
