As an undergrad I read some of these books, particularly the Aeneid, Apuleius, and the Confessions, though the reading was spread out over the course of two classes, Ancient Roman History, taught by Erich Gruen for the ealier, and Late Antiquity, taught by Peter Brown. </p><p><br /></p><p>Ah, those were the days.
