That would require yet another Pléiade purchase Tom Send a noteboard - 23/05/2012 04:10:48 AM
You know my passion for hardcovers (or, since you don't think the leather-bound Pléiade books are "hardcover", hardcover and leather-bound). I did get the two-volume Molière, though, and with the euro dropping, it doesn't look so outrageous.
Political correctness is the pettiest form of casuistry.

ἡ δὲ κἀκ τριῶν τρυπημάτων ἐργαζομένη ἐνεκάλει τῇ φύσει, δυσφορουμένη, ὅτι δὴ μὴ καὶ τοὺς τιτθοὺς αὐτῇ εὐρύτερον ἢ νῦν εἰσι τρυπώη, ὅπως καὶ ἄλλην ἐνταῦθα μίξιν ἐπιτεχνᾶσθαι δυνατὴ εἴη. – Procopius

Ummaka qinnassa nīk!

What should I read next in French and German? Tom - 22/05/2012 08:05:38 PM 1360 Views
My list of French literature I've read is extremely short, so, um, Racine? Yourcenar? Legolas - 22/05/2012 08:17:49 PM 793 Views

Yeah, I have that. *NM* Tom - 23/05/2012 09:30:48 PM 363 Views
And if you were to read the Spanish versions, there are two well-known plays Larry - 23/05/2012 11:57:45 PM 854 Views
Okay, I looked at Don Carlos. I see no resemblance to Don Juan. Tom - 25/05/2012 08:40:05 PM 875 Views
I mentioned it because Don Juan appears in it, but is not the star of it Larry - 25/05/2012 10:24:20 PM 890 Views
It's hard for me to get excited about Spanish literature. Tom - 26/05/2012 02:18:40 AM 1086 Views
Carlos Fuentes said as much in his 2011 non-fiction book, La gran novela latinoamericana Larry - 26/05/2012 03:24:22 AM 1243 Views

I have the two-volume anthology of French poetry from Pléiade (book series, not the poet group). Tom - 23/05/2012 09:32:51 PM 1053 Views

You could read the world's first Sci-Fi novel, Lucian of Samosata's Ἀληθῆ διηγήματα. Tim - 27/05/2012 03:08:30 PM 898 Views
Having read more about that, I'm tempted to say genre fiction has always been bad. Tom - 28/05/2012 03:40:45 AM 797 Views
