There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

Tiberius was actually quite a competent emperor, but his private life didn't bear close examination.

Yeah, I was mostly flailing for Roman Emperors beginning with "t". Say, do Eastern Empire honchos count? There's probably a Theodore-ish one or two from Byzantium.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Trajan has an architectural something named after him. A column, perhaps?

I think Trajan also is a font-- a sort of all caps, roman looking font.

Ooh, and an arch which is (apparently) no longer around.
