[close] This is a group to read and discuss those books generally referred to as “the classics” or “the Western canon.” Books which have shaped Western thought over the years; books which Robert Hutchins, in his essay for the Great Books of the Western World series, considered important works in “The Great Conversation.” As one participant noted, "the goal of this group is to make reading the classics an enjoyable and enlightening but non-threatening process."

[close] Αυτό είναι ένα γκρουπ για readathons (μαραθώνιους διαβάσματος). Σκοπός είναι να περάσουμε ωραία τη μέρα/μέρες και να μοιραστούμε με άλλους την αγάπη για βιβλία. Μπορείτε να πείτε και σεις ιδέες για readathons για θέματα (π.χ. μαραθώνιοι διαβάσματος αστυνομικών, μαραθώνιος κάποιου συγγραφέα κτλ). Το χρονικό πλαίσιο μπορεί να ποικίλει, άλλοι θα κρατάνε μια μέρα ενώ άλλοι περισσότερες. Μπορείτε να μοιραστείτε το πώς τα πάτε την πρόοδο σας, προτάσεις και γενικά τις σκέψεις σας.

[close] Reading takes you places. Where in the world will your next book take you? If you love world literature, translated works, travel writing, or exploring the world through books, you have come to the right place! ATW80 began in 2009 as a challenge on TNBBC. The separate group was established in 2011. Anyone can join and participate in the challenges or readings at any time. Challenge participation is not a requirement of joining. Anyone who loves reading books from around the world is welcome here. The main purpose of this group is to travel the world through books, experiencing new authors and cultures along the way. Want to read about the world? We have close to 50,000 books cataloged by setting and more are added each week. I personally started reading around the world in 2008. This venture has introduced me to far off lands, fresh viewpoints, and many new authors I might not have discovered otherwise. Here is a record of my travels since 2009: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/18478768-diane-s-world-travels-by-book I have worked very hard gathering resources for others to use and coming up with new activities.
