Some guy has the entire 500+ volume Loeb Classical Library
On to Virgil! L063. We'll get through the shorter stuff and then on to Aeneas, Dido, and all that. #FullLoeb
And now on to Seneca for the first time in the #FullLoeb. N062 and all the happy stories we tell our children at night. "And Medea and Jason lived happily ever after . . ."
Has been 3 years of #FullLoeb & I'll admit, things got a bit slow last year with only 11 more under my belt. I'm hopeful for a renewed push this year tho. And I'll add, for those of us in quarantine, what better pastime than engaging with the masters of Antiquity? Join on in!
Inspired by last summer's #myfirstLoeb (h/t @byzantinepower) I’m going #FullLoeb. I’m trying to read the entire Loeb C Library by volume no.
#FullLoeb is back! Now L059, Books 7-10, another round of Pliny the Younger and all these letters.
It’s time for my top 5 books of the year. That is, my favorite books I read for the 1st time in 2019, & are of relatively recent vintage (no #FullLoeb’s). Lots of tough competition this time, so apologies to those on the office floor.
I am very much looking forward to attending the Federalist Society's national convention this week. (For the 1st time, I'm embarrassed to say!) If you're going feel free to find me & chat me up about judicial engagement, state constitutions, or going #FullLoeb. #FedSoc2019
In works and days Hesiod makes a number of recommendations that sound rather sensible. 1st off: "Never pour a libation of sparkling wine to Zeus after dawn with unwashen hands." Can't disagree with that, can you? #FullLoeb

I love this. It shows that myths we now read about in preserved "high culture" (like those you read if you go #FullLoeb) from Antiquity were also part of the living culture of real people.
A Latin graffito from Pompeii. It reads, in an ancient hand, LABYRINTHUS HIC HABITAT MINOTAURUS. In English, the Labyrinth, here lives the Minotaur.
Pliny the Younger's daily routine:
1 Arise "when I please"
2 Dictate stuff to secretary
3 Go on walk "upon my terrace"
4 Go for a chariot ride
5 Take a nap
6 Recite a speech
7 Private bath
8 Dinner w/ friends
9 Listen to musician
10 Evening of "varied conversation"

I've been very bad at my effort to go #FullLoeb lately. But I'm gonna try and put things right now (w/ all the snow in MN, what else can I do?). So here we go with Strabo, L049, born in about 64 BC.
Plutarch does a wonderful job (for an ancient historian) of assessing different sources and judging their veracity. #FullLoeb
Plutarch claimed that the Celts entered Italy due to their love of wine (and rumors that the Italians had quite a lot of it). A reminder that I should spend more time with my Celtic friends . . . #FullLoeb
According to Plutarch, Lycurgus of Sparta forbade his laws from being reduced to writing. #FullLoeb #TheBizarroScalia
I'm thankful for many things, but among them is the Loeb Classical Library. Thus, I'm happy that I'm up to L045 in going #FullLoeb, the obscure (even for ancient literature) Adventures of Leucipe and Clitophon by Achilles Tatius.
Not reading Cicero or Lucretius or Seneca or other very important post 322 BC thinkers leaves a student of ancient philosophy profoundly under-educated. The response is there’s just not enough time. But . . . c’mon! #FullLoeb 5/
