Cronk, Nicholas et Glenn Roe, «The Humanist World of Voltaire’s Correspondence», entrée de blogue, Voltaire Foundation, 7 février 2019. https://voltairefoundation.wordpress.com/2019/02/07/the-humanist-world-of-voltaires-correspondence/
«Overwhelmingly Voltaire prefers to quote Latin poets; and that Horace, Virgil and Ovid should be the top three is hardly surprising, though the presence of Horace is dominant. There is breadth as well as depth here, and the list goes beyond the usual suspects to include minor figures such as Manilius, Statius, and Cato the Elder. Does this mean, for instance, that Voltaire is quoting someone like Manilius from memory ? If so, how interesting and altogether unexpected.»

«Round up the usual suspects.»
