📜 Authentic readings

The texts you came
to read, annotated.

30 passages centred on the Attic authors — each annotated with in-line vocabulary, morphological notes, and historical context. The finish line is reading without the notes.

Plato, Aristotle, Thucydides, Sophocles
In-line vocabulary and grammatical commentary on every passage
Plus a few passages of Homer and the New Testament, with notes on how their Greek differs from Attic

One dialect, deliberately

Attic Greek, specifically.

This is a course in Attic Greek — the dialect of fifth- and fourth-century Athens: Plato, Aristotle, Thucydides, the tragedians. Every lesson, flashcard and quiz is built on it. Among the 30 authentic readings you will also meet a few passages of Homer and the New Testament, annotated with notes on how their Greek differs from Attic — context for the language, not a second curriculum.

Plato · Aristotle · Thucydides · Sophocles · Euripides

Read the philosophers
The goal is always the text. Every lesson, flashcard and quiz brings you closer to reading Homer, Plato and Aristotle without an English crutch.

ΑΝΑΓΝΩΣΜΑΤΑ — The readings

Read Homer, not handouts.

The course includes 45 annotated readings from the original sources — fifteen passages from Homer's Odyssey alone, from the invocation of the Muse to the Sirens' song and "My name is Nobody." Alongside them: Plato, Aristotle, Thucydides, Heraclitus, Parmenides and the inscription at Delphi, each with vocabulary aids and grammatical commentary.
