In 1946, E. V. Rieu's groundbreaking translation of The Odyssey  established a cultural legacy that would bring the world's most  compelling and influential literature to millions of readers around the  globe. For over sixty-five years, Penguin Classics have been making  works that were once the sole preserve of academics accessible to  everyone; this catalogue offers a complete list of all titles in print  across the list - more than 1,200 books, from Aristotle and Austen, to  Zola and Zamyatin.
'The Penguin Classics, though I designed them to give pleasure even more than instruction, have been hailed as the greatest educative force of the twentieth century. And far be it for me to quarrel with that encomium, for there is no one whom they have educated more than myself' E. V. Rieu
