Vanity - Amazing Website for Literary Freepers!
Bartleby Books ^

Posted on 11/23/2001 1:44:54 PM PST by KantianBurke

I stumbled across this site recently and suffice to say, next to FR, its incredible. They've got almost every important Western author and poet that I can think of. The Bible? Its there! Shakespeare's complete works? Its there! And it all FREE!

There are right wing nuts too?

I thought it was just porn.

BTW--what does "literary" mean?

I agree, Bartleby's is a true treasure trove.

Project Gutenberg also has thousands of Titles (in the public domain) in "text" format.

I was going to suggest the Gutenberg Site. Excellent resource and is expanding all the time.

The text can be a bit of a hassle. The "Bart" site has them already displayed on the page which is nice. Ur site's selection is impressive too though. Thanks for its introduction! :>

Good post. Actually the DU most times just refers to Freepers as wingnuts.

I thought that "wingnut" was reserved for Naval Aviation types?
