Lyric Poetry
"Sejanus: His Fall" by Ben Jonson portrays the downfall of Lucius Aelius Sejanus, a historical figure who rose to power as the commander of the Praetorian Guard in ancient Rome. The play explores themes of political ambition, corruption, and the dangers of seeking too much power. Sejanus conspires to overthrow Emperor Tiberius, but his ambitious plans unravel as his allies turn against him. The play serves as a cautionary tale about the consequences of unchecked ambition and the corrupting influence of power. It reflects Jonson's criticism of political corruption and the manipulation of those in authority. Through vivid characters and intense drama, the play highlights the fragility of those who rise too high and the complexities of the political landscape in ancient Rome.
