Octavius Crowned Master of Rome After Victory
The piece argues Octavius, after a decisive victory, aimed to crown himself master of Rome. Agrippa urged resignation, Maecenas warned it unsafe, steering power to a single ruler. The author laments Rome’s shift from republic to tyranny, blaming conquest for luxury, vice, and dependence. The text views Rome’s fate as the cautionary fate of free states.
