The aim of this delifjhtful series of books is to explain, suffi- 

 ciently for general readers, who these great writers were, and what 

 they wrote; to give, wherever possible, some connected outline 

 of the story which they tell, or the facts which they record, checked 

 by the results of modern investigations ; to present some of their 

 most striking passages in approved English translations, and to 

 illustrate them generally from modern writers; to serve, in short, 

 as a popular retrospect of the chief literature of Greece and Rome. 



" Each successive issue only adds to 

 our appreciation of the learning and 

 skill with which this admirable enter- 

 prise of bringing the best classics within 

 easy reach of English readers is con- 

 ducted." — Netu York Independent. 



*^f* A Supplemental Series in the same sire and type is hfinjf 

 issued. It will not be extended beyond eight or ten volumes 



" There is not a volume of this most 

 admirable and useful series that is not 

 done in a very masterly manner, and 

 worthy of the highest praise." — Priiiih 

 Quarterly Revieiu.
