  • De Viris Illustribus ("On Famous Men" — in the field of literature), to which belong:
    • De Illustribus Grammaticis ("Lives Of The Grammarians"; 20 brief lives, apparently complete)
    • De Claris Rhetoribus ("Lives Of The Rhetoricians"; 5 brief lives out of an original 16 survive)
    • De Poetis ("Lives Of The Poets"; the life of Virgil, as well as fragments from the lives of TerenceHorace and Lucan, survive)
