    Reference note on the Scriptoriae Historiae Augusta
    Langenfeld, Kathryn Ann (2017). "Forging a History: the Inventions and Intellectual Community of the Historia Augusta". hdl:10161/14536. Retrieved 2 July 2021. Many recent studies have concluded that the inventions of the Historia Augusta can only obscure or detract from any historical purpose and that the primary intended function of the Historia Augusta was entertainment. In contrast, through reassessment of the work's composition and the forms and frequency of the inventions across the collection, this study demonstrates that the author uses his inventions to forge thematic and structural links across the thirty biographies and to encourage deeper reflection on his biographical subjects, the limitations of authentic history, and his contemporary political context.
