    Description
    "The Thesaurus Linguae Graecae CD ROM E contains virtually all ancient Greek texts surviving from the period between Homer (8th century B.C.) and A.D. 600, and a large number of Medieval texts deriving from the period between A. D. 600 and the fall of Byzantium in 1453. Scholia and Byzantine historigraphical and lexicographical works have already been digitized and are included in this disk. In addition to its extensive collection of texts, the TLG contains the canon of Greek authors and works, a comprehensive database of all known ancient Greek and Byzantine authors. Complete bibliographical information about all works in the CD ROM is included. Software allows one to locate and tabulate linguistic phenomena and to undertake lexical, grammatical and stylistic studies that would have been immensely time-consuming, if not impossible, in earlier eras."" TLG users include researchers, educators and students from a wide range of disciplines such as Classics, archaeology, Byzantine studies, history, art history, philosophy, linguistics, theology, and religious studies."
