“Here is 1,400 years of human culture, all the texts that survive from one of the greatest civilizations
human beings have ever built—and it can all fit in a bookcase or two. To capture all the fugitive texts of
the ancient world, some of which survived the Dark Ages in just a single moldering copy in some
monastic library, and turn them into affordable, clear, sturdy accurate books, is one of the greatest
accomplishments of modern scholarship—and one of the most democratic.”—Adam Kirsch
The Loeb Classical Library® is the only existing series of books which, through original text and English
translation, gives access to all that is important in Greek and Latin literature. Epic and lyric poetry;
tragedy and comedy; history, travel, philosophy, and oratory; the great medical writers and
mathematicians; those Church fathers who made particular use of pagan culture—in short, our entire
classical heritage is represented here in convenient and well‐printed pocket volumes in which an up‐to‐
date text and accurate and literate English translation face each other page by page. The editors provide
substantive introductions as well as essential critical and explanatory notes and selective bibliographies.
In honor of the 100th anniversary of the Loeb Classical Library, celebrated in 2011, Adam Kirsch wrote a
three‐part essay in the Barnes & Noble Review. Read parts one, two, and three.
And, in the pages of Buried History, G. H. R. Horsley, Professor of Classics at the University of New
England in New South Wales, Australia, and a Loeb Classical Library translator, assessed the library’s
achievements, innovations, and shifts in emphasis across its first hundred years. Download the article

hypocrisy.

Petronius’s Satyricon, probably written between 54 and 68 CE, presents in lurid detail

The passionate and dramatic elegies of Propertius (c. 50–soon after 16 BCE) gained
him a reputation as one of Rome’s finest love poets. He portrays the uneven course of
his love affair with Cynthia and also tells us much about the society of his time, then in
later poems turns to the legends of ancient Rome.
The Fall of Troy
Quintus Smyrnaeus
Way, A. S.
19.
In The Fall of Troy, Quintus Smyrnaeus (fourth century CE?) seeks to continue in
Homer’s style the tale of Troy from the point at which the Iliad closes. Quintus’s
fourteen‐book epic poem includes the death of Achilles and the making of the Wooden
Horse. It ends with the great storm that by the wrath of heaven shattered the departing
Achaean fleet.
