DOWNLOAD EBOOK'Anthology' comes from the Greek word that stands for garlands - a bouquet of flowers. An anthology then, should be a sort of reminder of something else, a small token of something much larger. In the case of flowers, they bring with their fragrance and colorfulness the reminder of the fields, of a season. Coelho's anthology, therefore, is not only a collection of texts or poems, but a gift, something arranged according to his sensitivities, to give to others. The selection of books presented in this volume have been chosen as if from a vast field of flowers, stretching infinitely into time's horizon. Coelho's selection is ordered in to the four elements, symbolizing both our world on all its directions, and the way we dwell in this world, the way we say it. In 'Earth' we find writers as diverse as Oscar Wilde and D H Lawrence; in 'Air' Nelson Mandela and Gabriel Garcia Marques; in 'Fire' Rumi and Mary Shelley; in 'Water' Hans Christian Anderson and Machiavelli.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from A Compendium of Classical Literature: Comprising Choice Extracts, Translated, From the Best Greek and Roman Writers, With Biographical Sketches, Accounts of Their Works, and Notes Directing to the Best Editions and Translations; From Homer to Longinus; From Plautus to Boethius The classical scholar will, of course, see at a glance that I have not attempted to give all the Greek and Roman writers, but those only who are by common consent considered the best. Still, in what I have here attempted, many errors and omissions will doubtless be detected by those whose lives are devoted to this subject; and if any one will point them out.
