Imperial historian Suetonius describes Caesar's mistresses.

Mistresses of Julius Caesar

[1]

Historical context

edit

[2]

"Although Caesar “seduced” a number of women, his treatment of his mistressescould not necessarily be called violent, which stands in distinction to the behaviorattributed to Tiberius, Caligula, Nero, and Domitian. Like Caesar, they too had affairswith respectable married women. But unlike Caesar, their relationships are portrayedas forceful. For example, Tiberius, Caligula, and Domitian all compel high-born ladiesto submit to their lusts against the women’s will."[3]

Folklore

edit

[38]

[39]

Triads 67 and 71 portray Caswallawn as a great lover, who competed with Caesar over the beautiful Fflur. He is named as one of the Three Golden Shoemakers of the Island of Britain in relation to his trip to Rome seeking his love; context suggests he disguised himself as a shoemaker.[40] A later collection of triads compiled by the 18th-century Welsh antiquarian Iolo Morganwg gives an expanded version of this tradition, including the details that Caswallawn had abducted Fflur from Caesar in Gaul, killing 6,000 Romans, and that Caesar invaded Britain in response.[41] As with the rest of Morganwg's Triads, however, the provenance of these references is suspect. However, the 12th-century poet Cynddelw Brydydd Mawr knew of some version of the Fflur story, writing that Caesar's love for her was costly.[42]

Cultural portrayals

edit

[46]

"Caesar's having once briefly been Clodia's lover—long before the advent of Catullus. The intimation of the old affair provokes Catullus to a furious hatred toward Caesar. And finally, the reader understands that Clodia's resentment of Caesar stems from her realization that she cannot by any means reawaken Caesar's interest in her. The triangle is completed by Caesar's awakening love for Catullus's art and inevitably for Catullus— a love not explicitly accompanied by homosexual overtones".[47] Tries to warn him[48] [49] Other book with Clodia and Caesar.[50]
