Caius Suetonius Tranquillus : Opera omnia

"July 19 1909. Ah me. I was reading this soon after dear little Paul died." [Paul = grandson of George Otto Trevelyan.]. This after a section of Caligula "quorum dou infantes adhuc rapti, unus jam puerascens." "Dec 16th 1916 Lloyd George called on to form a government." Many marginal notes copied from Lord Macaulay's own copy of the book: "The marks on the outer margin, and the notes signed M, are copied from Macaulay's Bipontine edition. He does not seem to have regularly marked the Octavius."

Century: 1900-1945     Reader/Listener/Group: George Otto Trevelyan      Print: Book
