Happy to announce I built a Greek/English reader site with all the surviving plays of Aeschylus, Sophocles, Euripides, & Aristophanes. Multiple translations for each play; click to parse & define for any Greek word; full Greek & English search. greekdrama.johnhboyer.com

The Greek Drama Reader — Greek tragedy and comedy, Greek and English side by side

Read the Greek plays in the original Greek with a facing English translation, side by side — with click-to-parse morphology, dictionary lookup, citation, and full-text search across the corpus.

Y’all. I just cannot recommend @CatherineProj enough - there’s so many options they almost feel endless. Years and years worth of engaging discussion are within your reach! ❤️

Did Emerson’s Self-Reliance with @CatherineProj tonight and had a common experience: reading the essay ahead of time, I did not care for it. But once discussing it, I found it is actually enormously rich. One of the best things about communal reading.

PS: Reading this with the @CatherineProj, which is a fantastic way to read such dense big books -- forces discipline, and the discussions bring out so much

P.P.S. LECTIO DIFFICILIOR POTIOR, "the more difficult reading is preferable", would be an excellent motto for @CatherineProj and other 'Great Books' programs. Read harder books! What's the best long read for a hibernating bear with insomnia? @zenahitz @JaycelAdkins @NZaidka

@zenahitz @CatherineProj @sebs_tweets @MicMars @CasciottaGian @Porkchop_EXP @booksoftitans @trishankkarthik @nntaleb I am testing a theory that if people keep giving me walnut book shelves my home will accommodate them and they will alway be books in transit to fill them.

Such a delight leading seminars for the @CatherineProj - revisited the Meno last week for the first time in full since college. And was genuinely moved when I could tell the group, “Oh, this book really *did* change my life.”

Many reasons to join a @CatherineProj reading group, but the greatest of all is that it's a massive flex to whip out your copy of Plato's Republic on the plane.
