Several years ago a Rome police chief came up with the theory that Caesar, in effect, committed suicide. According to this theory Caesar was suffering from a degeneration of the mind and not wanting to be seen in such a way he decided to goad the conspirators into murdering him. This would have several outcomes. The first is that he would still be seen as strong and powerful at the time of his death. Secondly it would mean that those he saw as his enemies did not prosper after his death. And three it would mean that he would be remembered. Watching a documentary given by this senior Italian police officer I did come to the conclusion that there was something to this idea and it would be perfectly possible that this is what Caesar wanted.
