Kai su, teknon?
A revolt! Be gone with you, you slimy pseudo-Nero! I shall wrestle you in blood and sand for these lands of mine.
Also, out of more technical curiosity, how did you manage to associate this thread with the society page? Do you have henchmen in high places? Fifth columnists after my guts?

Oh, I see. It has swiftly been removed, order restored, crisis averted. Let's have this bugger thrown into the Tiber!

I have trouble, despite my authoritas, in allowing new members to join etc, how do I do it?
Also, only one essay left! It's psychotically hard though...bah. Time for pizza and girlfriend.

Have you tried typing his name/key words of the essay into your library's search engine or JSTOR? We can't write the essay for you, we could feed you false info and get you a bad grade or worse.

Well, we don't have any members to accept at the moment, but when we do, I'll try to explain and let you accept them.

Anyway, after careful consideration, I now accept the jurisdiction of this thread. That's a shame, I was looking forward to a good brawl.

But can you please edit the first post, BB Theory, so that it includes a link for new members to join up.

Ah I see also Tiberius lady, didn't I already help you before?
Right it's pretty straight forward:
Primary Sources
Suetonius (negative)
Tacitus Histories (negative, elements of Domitians character retrojected onto Tiberius)
whatever you can get of Valerius Paterculus (overwhelmingly positive)
and the usual suspects, elements in Cassius Dio, etc.
Then just get a good secondary source, like Scullard or Alston and a biography or something.

Is this the new thread? *creeps in from behind the curtain* ALL HAIL NEW THREAD!
Aaaanyway, I'm going to take a module outside of Classics next year -before you all burn me at the stake, or perhaps more aptly BURY ME ALIVE... well not technically apt, since I am not a guardian of any flame as far as I'm aware... I digress...
French, Italian or something else?
My French is A-Level + standard; my Italian is beginners' but I have many languages under the proverbial belt!
Also on a helpful-ish note, I'm doing two separate modules on Suetonius. WOO!
