Ancient Roman achievements in literature are best seen in the poetic works of Virgil and Horace. The writer Livy is best known for his prose. And the best knowledge that exists about Caesar's eight year conquest of Gaul is found in his own writings titled Commentaries.
One particular note are the works of the Roman emperor Marcus Aurelius. His philosophic Meditations were among the best pieces of Roman emperor writings.
Writers in ancient Rome were heavily dependent upon the Greek writers before them.
