This is my library and private study. It’s a quiet part of the house where I can work on my writing. My librarius Xenocles helps keep everything in order. He has a system for organizing all my social and academic correspondence and the minutes of the groups I belong to in the City. If you need anything from the archives, Xenocles will help you find what you're looking for.
If you're looking for something to read, there is a modest collection of historical and literary works on the shelves. My main reading interests are the late Republic, the equites, the Roman economy, and Roman law. In fact, I just acquired a History of Rome by some Greek fellow named Polybius. By the way, all of my scrolls and books are bound at Amazonia, the best book seller in Rome.
You may enjoy reading some of my own writings. I have kept diaries of my observation during walks around Rome and notes of my trips to other towns in Italia. Later, I compiled these place descriptions into two books for travelers. You can find my journals and the travel guides on the first shelf there.
You’ll find some miscellaneous works on the second shelf. There’s a journal of my musings on topics of public policy, a commemorative record of a Saturnalia banquet and a shopping guide for the festival, a journal of my musings on topics of public policy, and a new guidebook to sights in the Campus.
Like many Romans, I have composed a few works on religious and historical topics. They can’t be compared to Cato or Varro, but you may find them interesting. They’re grouped on the third shelf.
I’m fortunate to have some leisure time to work on my writing, but I haven’t retired from managing my businesses either. Let’s go into the next room, I’ll show you my business office.
