Subrius Flavus : ウィキペディア英語版 | Subrius Flavus
Subrius Flavus was a tribune of the Praetorian Guard who was heavily implicated in the Pisonian conspiracy against the Emperor Nero and was executed in 65CE for his involvement.〔(''Subrius Flavus'', romansonline.com )〕 ==Role in the Pisonian Conspiracy==
As Tribune and a man of military experience, Flavus enjoyed great significance in the plot - along with a few others including Centurion Sulpicius Asper as being "leading lights"〔Tacitus, ''Annals'', 15.49〕 as well as being close to Gaius Calpurnius Piso, the figurehead of the conspiracy. Tacitus observes that the hatred for Nero arrose suddenly when he was watching him perform on stage 〔Tacitus, ''Annals'', 15.50〕 but failed to attack him in front of the audience because he would not have had a chance to escape. Tacitus also observes that it was rumoured that, after the success of the conspiracy, Flavus was meant to murder Piso and the empire handed over to Seneca the Younger who was also a co-conspirator because "it mattered not as to the disgrace if a harp-player were removed and a tragic actor succeeded him." For as Nero used to sing to the harp, so did Piso in the dress of a tragedian".〔Tacitus, ''Annals'', 15.65〕
