Year 12 Ancient - Ancient Texts


Hey folks, I mentioned yesterday that you can access many ancient texts for free, online. Their copyright has expired so there is no problem with getting them. Of course, you can always buy the books - nothing compares to reading a real, normal book - but for saving some important texts onto your computer, try these links:

Go here for a whole bunch of ancient texts. This site gives you access to many books that are now in the public domain.

To download Herodotus' Histories, which we will refer to many times this year, go here for Vol. 1, and here for Vol. 2.

The other authors we will read this year are Pausanias, Aristotle, Plutarch, Thucydides and Xenophon. I will post links as we get to them!
