The Twelve Caesars
He earned his living from writing, particularly popular historical novels such as "I, Claudius"; "King Jesus"; "The Golden Fleece"; and "Count Belisarius". He also was a prominent translator of Classical Latin and Ancient Greek texts; his versions of "The Twelve Caesars" and "The Golden Ass" remain popular for their clarity and entertaining style. Graves was awarded the 1934 James Tait Black Memorial Prize for both "I, Claudius" and "Claudius the God".
