salvete omnes

Welcome to a brand-new classical blog. The plan is to post brief daily or near-daily excerpts from ancient authors, with a translation and possibly a comment or two. Feel free to add your own comments!

I’m a PhD student working on 2nd-century AD Greek author Lucian, but I plan to alternate Latin and Greek texts. Other than that the passages will be simply random ones that, for whatever reason, have attracted my attention.

Please leave a comment on anything that takes your fancy – and let me know of any silly errors on my part, which will no doubt happen inevitably and all too frequently…
