For those who are new to TLG, you can register as a guest and make use of the search engine[1] for texts included in the open TLG library which includes a lot of things that classics students want, like Homer, Attic Tragedy, Plato, Aristotle,Thucydides, Xenophon and some church fathers. That’s not a bad list considering your not paying for it. You can browse (read) these texts using the hyper linked lexicons and parsing engine. The performance on TLG is several orders of magnitude better than Perseus.
[1] I am not a great fan of the TLG search engine. Been spoiled by using Accordance. The search engine was awesome in version 0.8 (beta) fall of '93 and now in version 11.x it is somewhat better.
Unless anyone objects I intend to start another thread on reading Ajax. I may copy some stuff from here (or not if I dont think its going to be helpful) onto the new thread. I doubt that I will do anything before Sunday night or Monday. I am at Glyndebourne tomorrow for the Mastersingers. this is (an)other story about how the individual can (or cant) be incorporated into society. Perhaps we have not been reading Ajax here so much as acting it out as psycho-drama?
When I have started the new thread perhaps one of the moderators might close this one, if thats thought to be the best course?
Has this thread gone off the tracks again? Is anyone still reading Ajax? I am, for the second time, and I’m up to the third episode. Anything to discuss?
I have not made much progress. I have a few questions on 51-73. Should we have another thread, this one doesnt seem to make much sense?
