2000 years from now they will judge our time by bestsellers like Harry Potter and 50 Shades of Grey

no, not all are copies...
Any really meaningful intellectual work will be lost or survive only in fragments
Strangely enough many of the accounts we have that go against jewish subversion were copies sent to Chinese or Middle Eastern libraries by the Romans where the original copies were destroyed
it says that the originals survive
hmmm

@Nerthulas None of us have seen the entirety of the vatican archive
for Plautus, they have surviving originals
but only those Catholic monks thought they were worth preserving

Julian the Apostate
vellum does not last long
ok so why was this playwright able to gain prominence, and not be executed for homosexuality under these homosexuality laws you claim existed?

Is anyone an incel here
less than 2% of aristotles work survived. much of what we have left are notes made by his students attributed to him

When Rome went Christian, an emperor called Julian converted to paganism, standardised paganism, built temples and wrote a very extensive book called "To the Galileans" discussing why christians are broke and why pagans are woke
