Have any you read the Classics? ( e.g. Greek and Roman books, that sort of thing)

Has no one read them? Come on, there's gotta be someone. Ok, I'll add the 2nd millenium classics then. Anyone read those?

Oh no...what is the world coming to? How can you hate Plato, or Homer, or St. Augustine?  ;D |

Ugh....personally I hated stuff like the Odyssey and Illiad. Now those classics I hated. But the more modern day, 1700- present stuff I enjoy.

I have to admit the Iliad was a little violent...

me neve read the lliad or the oddysey wish i did mind, but i never got round to it , but i have read some books by william shakespeare e.g. macbeth and the tempest. and ive also read the mobinogion, which, to most people is not at all a classical book, but as the lliad is a great exploit by the greeks then the mobinogion is a great book written in the past, by the welsh. of course at the mo, im reading robinson crusoe by daniel defoe, but by far my favourite classical novel of all time has to be the tale of two cites by charles thingyens
