Accusato fin dai tempi antichi di essere il responsabile del grande incendio che devastò Roma nel 64 d.C., nel corso dei secoli è diventato uno dei personaggi più negativi della storia: assassino sanguinario, esteta volubile, uomo assetato di potere, schiavo delle passioni, schiacciato dal peso di una madre troppo opprimente...
