Below is a list of selected readings for CLC 223L -
Masterpieces of Greek Tragedy & Comedy. Some of these essays will
be distributed to you throughout the course as assigned reading. Others are
placed here simply as bibliographical resources for exam and term paper
material. Most full texts are available in the University Library.
