Answer by taking a quote from the following article:

I, Claudius (1934) is a novel by English writer Robert Graves, written in the form of an autobiography of the Roman Emperor Claudius. Accordingly, it includes the history of the Julio-Claudian Dynasty and the Roman Empire, from Julius Caesar's assassination in 44 BC to Caligula's assassination in 41 AD. The 'autobiography' of Claudius continues (from Claudius' accession after Caligula's death, to his own death in 54) in Claudius the God (1935). The sequel also includes a section written as a biography of Herod Agrippa, contemporary of Claudius and future King of the Jews.

Claudius was the fourth Emperor of Rome (r. 41-54 AD). Historically, Claudius' family kept him out of public life until his sudden coronation at the age of forty-nine. This was due to his being perceived as being a dolt due to his stammering, limp and other nervous tics. This made others see him as mentally deficient and also therefore not a threat to his ambitious relatives. Even as his symptoms began to wane in his teenage years, he ran into trouble for his work as a budding historian. His work on a history of the civil wars was too truthful and too critical of the reigning emperor Augustus and his mother and grandmother quickly put a stop to it. This episode reinforced their initial suspicions that Claudius was not fit for public office. This is how he was defined by scholars for most of history, and Graves uses these peculiarities to develop a sympathetic character whose survival in a murderous dynasty depends upon his family's incorrect assumption that he is a harmless idiot.  Graves's interpretation of the story owes much to the histories of Gaius Cornelius Tacitus, Plutarch and (especially) Suetonius (Lives of the Twelve Caesars). Graves translated Suetonius before writing the novels. Graves claimed that after he read Suetonius, Claudius came to him in a dream one night and demanded that his real story be told. The life of Claudius provided Graves with a way to write about the first four Emperors of Rome (Augustus, Tiberius, Caligula, and Claudius) from an intimate point of view.  In addition, the real Claudius was a trained historian and is known to have written an autobiography (now lost) in eight books that covered the same time period. I, Claudius is a first-person narrative of Roman history from the reigns of Augustus to Caligula; Claudius the God is written as a later addition documenting Claudius' own reign.  Graves provides a theme for the story by having the fictionalised Claudius describe a visit to Cumae, where he receives a prophecy in verse from the Sibyl, and an additional prophecy contained in a book of "Sibylline Curiosities". The latter concerns the fates of the "hairy ones" (i.e. The Caesars - from the Latin word "caesar", meaning "a fine head of hair") who are to rule Rome. The penultimate verse concerns his own reign, and Claudius assumes that he can tell the identity of the last emperor described. From the outset, then, Graves establishes a fatalistic tone that plays out at the end of Claudius the God, Claudius predicts his own assassination and succession by Nero.  At Cumae, the Sibyl tells Claudius that he will "speak clear." Claudius believes this means that his secret memoirs will be one day found, and that he, having therein written the truth, will speak clearly, while his contemporaries, who had to distort their histories to appease the ruling family, will seem like stammerers. Since he wishes to record his life for posterity, Claudius chooses to write in Greek, since he believes that it will remain "the chief literary language of the world." This enables Graves to offer explanations of Latin wordplay or etymologies that would be unnecessary for native Latin speakers. CANNOTANSWER

Svar genom att ta ett citat från följande artikel: I, Claudius (1934) är en roman av den engelske författaren Robert Graves, skriven i form av en självbiografi över den romerske kejsaren Claudius. Följaktligen inkluderar den Julio-Claudiandynastins och Romarrikets historia, från Julius Caesars mord år 44 f.Kr. till Caligulas mord år 41 e.Kr. Claudius 'självbiografi' fortsätter (från Claudius anslutning efter Caligulas död, till hans egen död år 54) i Claudius Guden (1935). Uppföljaren innehåller även ett avsnitt skrivet som en biografi över Herodes Agrippa, samtida med Claudius och blivande judarnas kung. Claudius var Roms fjärde kejsare (r 41-54 e.Kr.). Historiskt höll Claudius familj honom borta från det offentliga livet fram till hans plötsliga kröning vid fyrtionio års ålder. Detta berodde på att han uppfattades som en dolt på grund av hans stammande, haltande och andra nervösa tics. Detta fick andra att se honom som mentalt bristfällig och därför inte heller som ett hot mot hans ärelystna släktingar. Redan när hans symptom började avta i tonåren råkade han ut för problem för sitt arbete som spirande historiker. Hans arbete med en historia om inbördeskrigen var alltför sanningsenligt och alltför kritiskt mot den regerande kejsaren Augustus och hans mor och mormor satte snabbt stopp för det. Denna episod förstärkte deras inledande misstankar om att Claudius inte var lämplig för offentliga ämbeten. Så definierades han av forskare under större delen av historien, och Graves använder dessa egenheter för att utveckla en sympatisk karaktär vars överlevnad i en mordisk dynasti beror på hans familjs felaktiga antagande att han är en ofarlig idiot. Graves tolkning av berättelsen har mycket att tacka för Gaius Cornelius Tacitus, Plutarkos och (särskilt) Suetonius (De tolv kejsarnas liv). Graves översatte Suetonius innan han skrev romanerna. Graves hävdade att efter att han läst Suetonius kom Claudius till honom i en dröm en natt och krävde att hans verkliga historia skulle berättas. Claudius liv försåg Graves med ett sätt att skriva om Roms fyra första kejsare (Augustus, Tiberius, Caligula och Claudius) ur en intim synvinkel. Dessutom var den verklige Claudius utbildad historiker och är känd för att ha skrivit en självbiografi (numera förlorad) i åtta böcker som omfattade samma tidsperiod. I, Claudius är en förstapersonsskildring av romersk historia från Augustus regeringstider till Caligula; Claudius Guden är skriven som ett senare tillägg som dokumenterar Claudius egen regeringstid. Graves ger ett tema för berättelsen genom att låta den skönlitterära Claudius beskriva ett besök i Cumae, där han får en profetia på vers från sibylen, och en ytterligare profetia som finns i en bok med "Sibylline Curiosities". Det senare gäller "de hårigas" öden (d.v.s. Caesars - från det latinska ordet "caesar", med betydelsen "ett fint hårhuvud") som ska styra Rom. Den näst sista versen rör hans egen regeringstid, och Claudius antar att han kan berätta identiteten på den siste kejsare som beskrivs. Redan från början etablerar Graves alltså en fatalistisk ton som utspelar sig i slutet av Claudius den Guden, Claudius förutspår sitt eget mord och sin egen tronföljd av Nero. På Cumae säger sibylen till Claudius att han ska "tala klart". Claudius tror att detta innebär att hans hemliga memoarer en dag kommer att bli funna, och att han, då han däri skrivit sanningen, kommer att tala klart, medan hans samtida, som var tvungna att förvränga deras historia för att blidka den härskande familjen, kommer att framstå som stammare. Eftersom han vill spela in sitt liv för eftervärlden väljer Claudius att skriva på grekiska, eftersom han tror att det kommer att förbli "världens främsta litterära språk". Detta gör det möjligt för Graves att erbjuda förklaringar av latinets wordplay eller etymologies som skulle vara onödigt för infödda latintalande.

Answer by taking a quote from the following article: I, Claudius (1934) is a novel by English author Robert Graves, written in the form of an autobiography of the Roman emperor Claudius. Consequently, it includes the history of the Julio-Claudian dynasty and the Roman Empire, from the murder of Julius Caesar in 44 BC to Caligula's murder in AD 41.

Historically, Claudius' family kept him away from public life until his sudden coronation at the age of forty-nine.

Even when his symptoms began to subside in his teens, he faced problems for his work as a budding historian. His work on a history of the civil wars was too truthful and too critical of the reigning emperor Augustus and his mother and grandmother quickly put an end to it.

Claudius believes that this means that his secret memoirs will one day be found, and that, having written the truth therein, he will speak clearly, while his contemporaries, who had to distort their history to appease the ruling family, will appear as stutterers.
