Tired of reading "The Glutton Spiel" and "Crisis Barn"? So are your Sims! Give them the gift of Classical literature with this download of Greek and Roman books. Classics constitutes some of the most valuable intellectual inheritance of Western Similization, and now your beloved Sims can have it (almost) all, from Aesop to Zeno, in this 48 volume set of custom books (purchasable, after download and installation, from your bookcases). There is also available for download a money-saving "Classics Bookcase" that is preloaded with a selection of these books (see spoiler).
All Classics books provide fun (of course!), some instill the soul with Emotions, and some will teach your Sims skills. Learn Debate from Cicero or Logic from Aristotle; Comedy from Plautus or Acting from Aeschylus; be inspired by the tales of Ovid, emboldened by the deeds of Caesar, titillated by Sappho, amused by Juvenal, roused by Pindar.
The volumes have a handsome design, bold yet dignified, individualized yet consistent. Note that Roman Works are marked in Red on the binding and Greek Works in Green (similar to the real-world's Loeb's Classical Works Series). Being in the public domain, all Classics are very reasonably priced. Give your Sims the advantage they deserve: a Classical education.
The books include:
The Greek Tragedians: Aeschylus, Sophocles, & Euripides
Archaeology Books: Roman Archaeology, Greek Archaeology, & Egyptian Archaeology
The Comedic Playwrights: Aristophanes, Plautus, & Terence
The Roman Horticulturalists: Cato the Elder, Pliny, & Varro
The Greek Thinkers: The Pre-Socractics, Euclid, Aristotle
Works of Plato: The Symposium, The Republic, The Apology
The Rhetoriticians: Demosthenes, Isocrates, & Cicero
The Romantics: the Ephesian Xenophon and Ovid's Ars Amatoria
The Stoic: Marcus Aurelius
The Epic Poets: Homer's Iliad, Homer's Odyssey, Vergil's Aeneid
The Lyric Poets: Sappho, Catullus, & Propertius
The Mythologists: Hesiod, Apollodorus, & Ovid's Metamorphoses
The Satirists: Juvenal, Martial, Aesop
The Historians: Livy, Thucydides, Athenian Xenophon, Herodotus, Sallust
The Biographers: Caesar, Tacitus, Suetonius, Plutarch
The Epiniciast: Pindar
The Elegiast: Tibullus
