Why was Antony loved by Romans even after the proscriptions?
Cassius Dio, writing more than two and a half centuries after Antony's death, describes Antony as being the most ruthless of the three Triumvirs at the time of the proscriptions.
So does Velleius, but it was this historian's policy to show Augustus, in whose circle he moved, in the best light, and to malign Antony; and therefore his evidence is not to be accepted. He accused Antony, in any case, chiefly of having shut for ever Cicero's "divine lips"; but the Philippics were not divine they were devilish.
But Suetonius who was separated from the period by over a hundred year less than this, and is the better authority, is emphatic, as has already been said, that Octavian was the only one of the three who showed no wish to bring the massacre to an end. Antony, in fact, appears to have been the first to feel shame for his atrocious behaviour; and at any rate there can be no doubt that he alone retained his popularity with Rome's democracy, whereas Octavian was detested.
