If these walls could talk
- Description
- For MOC day 23.
Journaling says:
I have been standing here for about 2.500 years and could tell you a thing or two. I could tell you how it was when Hannibal appeared in front of our gates and tried to take us with elephants! I could tell you what Marc Anthony really said when he held Caesar’s funeral oration. I could tell you whether Cleopatra was as charming as they claim and whether Caesar really was the golden boy a lot of people say he was - the ones who liked him, that is. I could tell you what Clodius had in mind when he dressed up as a woman and gatecrashed the rites of the Good Goddess. I could tell you what really went on with Catilina; maybe Cicero was a little biased after all. I could tell you how Caligula, Claudius and all the others really were without you having to rely on Suetonius, the old gossip. I could tell you what it felt like to see 6.000 crosses along the Via Appia outside my gates. And - most importantly - I could tell you if the young Sulla really was as good looking as they say. ;-). Aren’t you dying to know these things?
