...Imperator orbis terrarum imaginarius

 ...i tu w pól słowa znad ramienia słyszę 

- Lu, tego współcześnie nawet przeciętny Dr hab. nie zrozumie...

nie możesz napisać zwyczajnie po europejsku na przykład "Imaginary Emperor of the World" albo "Phantasmal Ruler of All Lands"?

...mogę ale nie muszę

zatem czytając co ten nasz Imperator orbis terrarum imaginarius sobie roi, bo...

pomyślałem...

na szczęście żaden z tego Trumpa Kaligula* więc może być tylko...

śmiesznie

- Wiesz, że w tym okresie życia Kaligula był już poważnie chory? - znad ramienia głos nieustępliwy

- Oczywiście, że wiem dlatego to postać tragiczna

Zaraz potem pełen chwały Kaligula wrócił do Rzymu i odbył wjazd owacyjny..." Kaligula – Wikipedia, wolna encyklopedia

"...In the year 39, the Emperor proceeded to Germania, which he resolved to annex to the Empire. The mere crossing of the Rhine he proclaimed a dazzling victory, and forthwith commenced his return to Rome. Subsequent military operations on the Emperor’s behalf were conducted by Galba.

"You know that by this period of his life, Caligula was already gravely ill?" —the voice over my shoulder, persistent.
