I’m very much enjoying “auditing” this course:
This is the third Hebrew Bible course I’ve listened to. (The first two were from Modern Scholar and the Teaching Company, respectively.) This is the first one to teach me more than Asimov’s Guide to the Bible did.

I love Stanley Lombardo’s translation of the Iliad. I love it in print and I love the audio version, which he reads himself. Audible is having a sale right now on 150 of its unabridged classics for $8.95 each. Both Lombardo’s Iliad and his Odyssey are included in the sale. Very highly recommended.

Jeff Riggenbach reads the whole of the masterpiece, beginning with the introduction printed here, and continuing through the end. As always, all files are being made free online for everyone to listen to or download. It will also be packaged as a CD and available in the store for gift giving or otherwise. This is something the Mises Institute has wanted to do for decades. The time has come. Here is the Introduction and here is the audio.
(This one is a lot of work, but a real pleasure to work on.)

I wrote a brief review of Anthony Pagden’s Worlds at War: the 2500-Year Struggle Between East and West — and the author briefly replied.
