Literature doesn't die because a ragtag of brainlet neomarxists and neolibs took over the field. It'll probably start doing better in 2-3 generations. Until then, there's plenty of literature we can read.

I'm going to jump start straight into the Greeks and Romans.
I'm about to spend over £800 on:

Achilles Tatius
Aeschylus
Aesop
Apuleius
Ammianus Marcellinus
Apollodorus
Apollonius of Rhodes
Appian
Archilochos
Aristophanes
Aristotle
Arrian
Athenaeus
Aulus Gellius
Callimachus
Cassius Dio
Catullus
Cicero
Clement of Alexandria
Claudian
Demosthenes
Dio Chrysostom
Diodorus Siculus
Diogenes Laërtius
Dionysius of Halicarnassus
Ennius
Epictetus
Euripides
Frontinus
Fronto
Herodotus
Hesiod
Hippocrates
Homer
Horace
Josephus
Julius Caesar
Juvenal
Livy
Longus
Lucan
Lucian
Lucretius
Manetho
Marcus Aurelius
Martial
Nonnus
Ovid
Pausanias
Petronius
Pindar
Plato
Pliny the Elder
Pliny the Younger
Plotinus
Plutarch
Polybius
Procopius
Propertius
Quintilian
Quintus Curtius Rufus
Quintus Smyrnaeus
Sallust
Sappho
Seneca
Sextus Empiricus
Sidonius
Silius Italicus
Sophocles
Statius
Strabo
Suetonius
Tacitus
Terence
Tertullian
Theocritus
Theognis
Thucydides
Tibullus
Varro
Virgil
Xenophon

Of all the classical literature that's currently in print in English translation, am I missing anything? I'm ignoring all the obscure stuff only Loeb publishes.

Vast majority will be in cheap paperbacks, mostly Oxford World Classics or Penguin Classics, but I'm eyeing The Landmark Series and Hackett's Complete Plato and Princeton's Complete Aristotle. Please let me know if there's definitive editions of any of the other works and authors so my final purchase and library is compact.

Yes I know I'm a pseud.

How come most great artists in history are ugly?
