The Internet Classics Archive
Bringing the wisdom of the classics to the Internet since 1994.

Select from a list of 441 works of classical literature by 59 different authors, including user-driven commentary and "reader's choice" Web sites. Mainly Greco-Roman works (some Chinese and Persian), all in English translation.

Construct powerful queries to search the texts provided locally and remotely. Search by work and author, as well as the entire archive.

Purchase books using searches and lists of books available from Barnes and Noble and Amazon.com, including books in the Loeb Classical Library. A CD-ROM of the titles in the archive is in the works.

Consult the help pages for answers to common questions. Direct further questions, comments, and concerns to the Webmaster at classics@classics.mit.edu.

Consult a list of other classical and electronic text resources, including several Web rings. In addition, each work has its own list of "reader's choice" Web sites.

Try the current trivia question (updated every few weeks) or suggest new questions.
