This makes sense. Derivative works, and works done on great people by other great people is always interesting and have a lot to offer. Infallibility of classic authors is something that you can be aware of to a greater degree only if you read the originals. This is especially true if you are considering the works of people from a culture where people are persona-worshippers, and don't find any fault in famous people that are long dead. tl;dr- reading original works also enables you to see the flaw in others' work, thinking processes, drawing conclusions among others.
