*Warning: Some of these links are to translations that differ from the ones used in class and should be employed with caution. Sometimes it is good to compare how different translators render a passage, since it can help us to understand it better. For your papers, however, you should use the translations that figure in the syllabus and only refer to a different translation if you think that it captures something that the assigned one is missing.
