24 mai -15 : Naissance de #Germanicus
---
Sur le Grand Camée de France, on le voit chevauchant Pégase, superbe et triomphant. Il est le prince de la jeunesse, le César que Rome et le monde espèrent lorsque reviendra le temps de la liberté. Mais Germanicus, lorsqu’il meurt à Antioche en 19, à 34 ans, emporte avec lui une gloire inaccomplie. Auréolé de vertus républicaines, de courage militaire et de maîtrise intellectuelle, le petit-fils de Marc Antoine, l’époux d’Agrippine, le père de Caligula paraît avoir brûlé les étapes. Après avoir brillé en Illyrie, c’est en Germanie qu’il se distingue, infligeant une sévère défaite au légendaire Arminius.
C’est en Orient qu’il s’épanouit ensuite, faiseur de roi et de paix, populaire au point de susciter la jalousie de l’empereur Tibère, son oncle et père adoptif. La mort le frappa en plein vol, le soustrayant peut-être au destin sanglant qui caractérise sa famille. La perte fut ressentie à la hauteur des espérances qu’il avait entretenues. Statues, bas-reliefs, médailles, inscriptions lui furent consacrés, magnifiant sa mémoire presque à l’égal d’un dieu. Et lorsque l’Antiquité se réinstalla dans la culture occidentale au XVIe siècle, le nom et la personne de Germanicus investirent la musique, la littérature et l’art bien plus que son destin l’aurait laissé supposer.

#EpigraphyTuesday offers us a shattered and recomposed slab of Luni marble from the #Forum of #Augustus in #Rome. Its #inscription has been somewhat devoured by the human termites who ran the lime kilns but is easily legible as a statue dedication to #Drusus #Germanicus.
The death of Germanicus today in 19 AD. Tacitus portrayed him as a virtuous general, in contrast to the tyrant Tiberius. #Tacitus #Germanicus #Tiberius

🪔 #OnThisDay in 19 AD #Germanicus died, possibly from a disease. Grandson of Livia, he was the obvious heir to Tiberius, but died on campaign in AD 19. Caligula was on of his sons. This marble head of Germanicus was made in Egypt. In late antiquity, Christians broke the nose of the bust and carved a cross on the forehead. Now in BM, London. 📸 me

#OnThisDay Germanicus was born, 15 BC. In this painting #Germanicus and his army visit he remains of the #Varus #legions. Because of the morale impact of his victories, Germanicus was considered one of the best generals of Rome despite his premature death.
