Sample text
También Gayo al principio fue muy democrático, porque no enviaba cartas al pueblo ni al sena do, aunque luego se hizo muy monárquico: LIX 3, 1. La aceptación de la monarquía viene condicionada por la rela ción con el senado, pero se califica de muy monárquico al que se comporta con él negativamente, con lo que sale a la luz una connotación peyorativa de la palabra monarquía cuando ésta no tiene las condiciones que Dion quiere. Por su parte, Galba consideraba que no había tomado el poder, sino que se lo habían dado: LXIV (LXIII) 2; Vespasiano consultaba al senado: LXVI (LXV) 10, 5; y cuando Dion dice de él que actuaba demóticamente (LXVI [LXV] 11, 1), se refiere a su forma de actuar privada.
4. 50 D IO N CASIO entre sí; pero también al apoyo al pueblo por los emperado res a costa del senado. Sin embargo, con respecto a Tarquinio el Soberbio, frag. 18, 5, la acusación de aspirar a la tiranía procede de la plebe, mientras que los senadores están más bien en contra porque los tribunos han actuado al mar gen de ellos. Parece haber una crítica a la actitud acomodati cia de los senadores, como la anterior con Calígula, hasta el punto de valorarse en ocasiones la actitud del demos como más sincera que la del senado, como en el caso de Didio Ju liano, LXXIII (LXXIV) 13, 2, que llega a declarar que no apoya al pueblo porque no lo llamó: LXXIII (LXXIV) 13, 5a, frag.
En efecto, antes, LVIII 6 ,2 , «llamaban a Sejano cole ga de Tiberio, no refiriéndose al consulado, sino al poder». En el año 30, los senadores saludaban a Sejano como empe rador: LVIII 4, 1; se había ganado, además de los pretería nos, a los senadores, con evergesias, con esperanzas, con temor: LVIII 4, 2. Es una curiosa búsqueda de equilibrio en tre la aceptación y el rechazo de cada una de las manifesta ciones concretas del poder personal, como en el caso de Otón, al que, al morir, los de Roma, que antes lo alabaron, lo consideraron enemigo: LXV (LXIV) 1, 1.
