Hello /lit/

I have started with the Greeks and resumed with the Romans.

My question is after I have continued with the Christians, do I then Ruminate with the Renascence men? or do I back up to the Byzantines?

And at which time do I adventure with the Arabs and examine the east Asians?

all these memes

you should have read the greeks and skipped to enlightenment

Renaissance doesn't make sense if you don't master the middle ages.
But don't bother with Byzantines, they wrote nothing notable.

I doubt you finished the Greeks and Romans let alone the Greeks. So, you read all of Homer, Plato, Aristotle, the tragedies, Hellenistic philosophers, Neoplatonists, Hesiod, Aristophanes, Herodotus, Xenophon, Thucydides, and the mythologies?

Why would it be alliteration when "start with the Greeks" isn't in the first place?

That's the meme, man

you only really have to read plato, the tragedians, maybe aristophanes, and maaaaaaaaaybe some histories if you really have nothing to do.

Quite frankly it's more valuable to have a romp with the Romantics and mope with the Modernists.
