- philipov 24d agoNero was just a poor boy who wanted to play the fiddle. Are you sure Caligula isn't a better comparison? He's the one who constantly tried to own the ̶l̶i̶b̶s̶ senate. That's what the whole deal with the horse was about.
- _joel 24d agoI think historians might have something to say about Nero just playing the fiddle. I mean, he literally ordered the murder of his own mother.
- tonymet 23d agoPerhaps try reading more history about Nero.
- jkmcf 22d agoI'm reading Iain McGhilchrist's The Master and his Emissary. There's a bit about right brain damage correlating (fact?) to lacking empathy. Patients with right frontal deficits, but not left frontal deficits, suffer a change of personality whereby they become incapable of empathy.
