Please go to the online Loeb catalogue
_http://www.hup.harvard.edu/loeb/author.html_
(http://www.hup.harvard.edu/loeb/author.html)
and check which one _looks_ like your favourite.
Mine changes. Right now I'd be interested to read the volume on "Eikona" and
"Ekphrases" by Philostratus. It's about description of statues. Pindar I is
another favourite which I must own soon, not to mention Apuleius, Greek
Anthology (I only own vol. iv) and the Plato I must still own. Aristotle's
Rhetorica (he has two of them, and the Poetica, along with Horace's Ars Poetica
are
also _musts_ (have in SPL).
What a genius James Loeb, to conceive a series of uniform volumes that would
include all the necessary Aiskhilos, Sophocles, Aristophanes, Plautus, and
the rest of them. Indeed, it's all we need.
