And if someone else saw the essy eg teachers show each other their essays (coz they do have to make copies) & another teacher said "Hey...

Luck! >>P.S: Is it wise to post our essays up once they're marked? - I'd wait until after the assessments have been sent to the Board (September?) so that no one can rip your essay off & cause a plagiarism challenge that might suck you in. Different schools have different due dates so a...

Even decent people [good senators], who have achieved fame and who possess excellent qualities - even people like these attract envy and dislike, because their excellence makes the defects of others stand out all the more by contrast. So lesser people willl dislike them for that reason alone.

I don't agree about Agrippina - I tend more towards Guglielmo Ferrero's View. I have posted some ancient and modern interpretations of Agrippina here: http://suetonius.blogspot.com/
