Tony Lawrence Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Perhaps I am asking for a monumental work but I would like to see the work of Pliny the Elder, Natural History as a module in Accordance. I think it could be of great benefit. Today while studying 1Tim. 5:23, ZIBBCNT made reference to Pliny the Elder in the volume Natural History, Book 14, Chapter 9. I was able to go to Perseus website and read the text about the nature of wine at Ephesus, "while that of Ephesus is far from wholesome, being seasoned with sea-water and defrutum." It is available at https://archive.org/details/naturalhistoryof03plinand is out of copyright. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enoch Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 It is indeed quite helpful to have everything written in the period 200 BC - AD 200 for NT studies, historical background. I have wished there were a library for ancient studies which had its books shelved in chronological order. Imagine, Accordance or Logos with all the works written 200 BC - AD 200, & having a library section set up where those books were listed from top to bottom in chronological order. I think this should be a feature request. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Brylov Christensen Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 (edited) Hi Enoch It already exists - sort of. The Loeb classical Library has many, if not all the Greco-Roman classics from 800 B.C.E to 1000 C.E, fully searchable too. Link: https://www.loebclassics.com But I do agree that it would be very cool, if Accordance could tap into these kind of resources in the same manner. With kind regards Peter Christensen Edited January 30, 2015 by Pchris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With kind regards Peter Christensen But I never saw them arranged in a library (with the other works non-Loeb) in chronological order, nor tagged that way in Logos, which has them, of which I have bought all they have. You can search all their Greek corpus, including Perseus, but I don't know that the data can be made to come out in chronological order. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see why they can't do all of this. Oh well.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
