books! more books!

     As always, I have my finger on the pulse of the desires for the whims of my readers. For that reason, I'll let y'all know what books are scattered about at this time. I offer 'em in no particular order.

R. E. Allen's translations of The Republic and Euthyphro, Apology, Crito, Meno, Gorgias, Menexenus
David Ricks, The Shade of Homer: A Study in Modern Greek Poetry
Plato's Phaedrus, A Commentary for Greek Readers, by Paul Ryan
Eros at the Banquet: Reviewing Greek with Plato's Symposium, by Louise Pratt [pardon me!]
The Tortoise and the Lyre: Aesthetic Reconstructions, by Liberato Santoro-Brienza [I swear that's his name]

Stephen Halliwell, The Aesthetics of Mimesis: Ancient Texts and Modern Problems, and Between Ecstasy and Truth: Interpretations of Greek Poetics from Homer to Longinus
