<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Aethelred, post: 3393439, member: 81808&quot;]In my life I have probably read Suetonius more than any other book except The Bible. While I know that many of the stories Suetonius tells are probably embellished, I also believe his position gave him access to resources that would not have been available to writers outside the Imperial Palace, making him an important primary source that should be taken seriously. </p><p><br /></p><p>I also enjoy Marcus Aurelius&#039; Meditations as it is (aside from a few fragments) our only opportunity to get inside the head of a Roman Emperor by reading something he wrote.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
