Le Mort D'Arthur Vol II |
Thomas Malory (1399 - 1471) |
Le Morte d'Arthur is a classic tale of loyalty, love, and death. Malory assembles some French and English Arthurian romances, along with some additions of his own. The outline of the story will be familiar to many, it is the source for many modern Arthurian authors, but modern retellings present only a fraction of the original Malory. First printed in 1485 it is likely it will be as well known and loved in another 500 years. |

The Federalist Papers |
Anonymous ( - ) |
The Federalist Papers are a series of 85 articles arguing for the ratification of the United States Constitution. They were published in New York City newspapers beginning in October 1787 and outline the philosophy and motivation of the proposed system of government. According to historian Richard Morris, they are an "incomparable exposition of the Constitution, a classic in political science unsurpassed in both breadth and depth by the product of any later American writer." |

The Golden Ass |
Lucius Apuleius (123BC - 180BC) |
The Golden Ass relates the ludicrous adventures of Lucius, a virile young man obsessed with magic. In his enthusiasm to see the use of magic he is accidentally transformed into an ass and thus forced to witness and experience the lives of slaves and the destitute. This is the only surviving work of Greco-Roman literature to give a first person perspective of the abhorrent condition of the lower classes. T. E. Lawrence carried a small copy of the book in his saddlebags throughout the Arab Revolt. |
