Reviews
When I teach critical readings such as Plato's Symposium, Perpetua's Martyrdom, or Machiavelli's The Prince, I want my students to do more than brush the surface. Professors and students who want the challenge of engaging deeply with some of the most influential writers in Western history will find this book indispensable.--Leah deVun, Rutgers University The new edition provides a convenient collection of complete texts often at the heart of Western Civilization surveys along with more unusual readings.--Erik Thomson, University of Manitoba
