bouncing off of @an-ruraiocht’s Iliad/Odyssey/Aeneid poll I’m curious about some other ancient Greek and Roman texts

Which of the following Greek or Roman texts would you say you are most familiar with?

The Iliad (Homer)

The Odyssey (Homer)

The Aeneid (Vergil)

Antigone (Sophocles)

Oedipus Rex (Sophocles)

Medea (Euripides)

The Bacchae (Euripides)

Another Greek tragedy (tell me in the tags!)

Metamorphoses (Ovid)

Pharsalia/Bellum Civile (Lucan)

Thebaid (Statius)

Another Greek or Roman epic poem (tell me in the tags!)

Remaining time: 3 days 9 hours

#pharsalia bc i wrote my diss on it and then aeneid for sure #the hellenist hegemony on this website...shaking my head

Actually I think all systems of arranging personal books in your house are unnecessary because you just remember where every single book is.

#my family must have thousands of books organised like this - we just end up buying duplicates because we don’t remember where something is #and we’ve made no effort to change either

“it isnt something you have to read critically” well 😭

this technically is true but I think this also perfectly encapsulates why I am inherently distrustful of like. “”cozy”” “turn your brain off” fiction lmfao. like okay WHO gets to turn their brain off and who has to suffer through bigoted caricatures of themselves while everyone else is having cozy silly no brain time 😐
