Yinzadi Are these books that people think Hannibal would read, or are they known books referenced in canon?

The main canon references are not on this list.
Those being Faust by Goethe, Dante, Nietzsche, the Iliad (Achilles and Patroclus), Imago by Jung, Socrates etc. :)
Or at least those are the ones that were the most prominent to me and immediately recognizable from what I remember. I'm sure there are some lists will all the references!
