M. Porcius Cato Posted June 3, 2008 Report Share Posted June 3, 2008 There seems to be a glut of Caesar biographies lately. Cato must be throwing fits. It's not the quantity that bothers me, but the quality: a needless repetition of the same old biographical details without any new insights on anything in the Roman world. If these new works were of the quality of Meier's innovative work on Caesar, I'd greet each new tome on the balding bully with open arms.
