This collection is based on the required reading list of Yale Department of Classics. Originally designed for students, this anthology is meant for everyone eager to know more about the history and literature of this period, interested in poetry, philosophy and rhetoric of Ancient Rome._x000D_ Latin literature is a natural successor of Ancient Greek literature. The beginning of Classic Roman literature dates to 240 BC. From that point on, Latin literature would flourish for the next six centuries. Latin was the language of the ancient Romans, but it was also the lingua franca of Western Europe throughout the Middle Ages. Consequently, Latin Literature outlived the Roman Empire and it included European writers who followed the fall of the Empire, from religious writers like Aquinas, to secular writers like Francis Bacon, Baruch Spinoza, and Isaac Newton. This collection presents all the major Classic Roman authors, including Cicero, Virgil, Ovid and Horace whose work intrigues and fascinates readers until this day. _x000D_ Content:_x000D_ Plautus:_x000D_ Aulularia_x000D_ Amphitryon_x000D_ Terence:_x000D_ Adelphoe_x000D_ Ennius:_x000D_ Annales_x000D_ Catullus:_x000D_ Poems and Fragments_x000D_ Lucretius:_x000D_ On the Nature of Things_x000D_ Julius Caesar:_x000D_ The Civil War_x000D_ Sallust:_x000D_ History of Catiline's Conspiracy_x000D_ Cicero:_x000D_ De Oratore_x000D_ Brutus_x000D_ Horace:_x000D_ The Odes_x000D_ The Epodes_x000D_ The Satires_x000D_ The Epistles_x000D_ The Art of Poetry_x000D_ Virgil:_x000D_ The Aeneid_x000D_ The Georgics_x000D_ Tibullus:_x000D_ Elegies_x000D_ Propertius:_x000D_ Elegies_x000D_ Cornelius Nepos:_x000D_ Lives of Eminent Commanders_x000D_ Ovid:_x000D_ The Metamorphoses_x000D_ Augustus:_x000D_ Res Gestae Divi Augusti_x000D_ Lucius Annaeus Seneca:_x000D_ Moral Letters to Lucilius_x000D_ Lucan:_x000D_ On the Civil War_x000D_ Persius:_x000D_ Satires_x000D_ Petronius:_x000D_ Satyricon_x000D_ Martial:_x000D_ Epigrams_x000D_ Pliny the Younger:_x000D_ Letters_x000D_ Tacitus:_x000D_ The Annals_x000D_ Quintilian:_x000D_ Institutio Oratoria_x000D_ Juvenal:_x000D_ Satires_x000D_ Suetonius:_x000D_ The Twelve Caesars_x000D_ Apuleius:_x000D_ The Metamorphoses_x000D_ Ammianus Marcellinus:_x000D_ The Roman History_x000D_ Saint Augustine of Hippo:_x000D_ The Confessions_x000D_ Claudian:_x000D_ Against Eutropius_x000D_ Boethius:_x000D_ The Consolation of Philosophy_x000D_ Plutarch:_x000D_ The Rise and Fall of Roman Supremacy:_x000D_ Romulus_x000D_ Poplicola_x000D_ Camillus_x000D_ Marcus Cato_x000D_ Lucullus_x000D_ Fabius_x000D_ Crassus_x000D_ Coriolanus_x000D_ Cato the Younger_x000D_ Cicero
