Discover the Origins of America

Adams knew it. 

Jefferson certainly did. 

Alexander Hamilton and James Madison were very well versed, indeed. 

(Though You wouldn’t guess it from what the mainstream media wants to believe these days...)

But, let’s face it, if you want to make a difference.... 

...for yourself, for your family, for your community... 

Then You NEED to Know It Too. 

It’s an ancient wisdom that unlocks your potential, brings new perspectives and upholds a long standing - American - tradition.

And it can only be attained by Remembering history... not burying it. 

"Throw me to the wolves and I will return leading the pack." -Seneca

I’m talking about the Classics - with a Capital C. 

(Let’s give some respect where it’s due!) 

It was all you needed to be considered Educated.

It’s the type of knowledge that makes You a Leader...

Just look at the Founding Fathers.  

Thomas Jefferson famously loved the Classics. He was deeply inspired by them... and that ancient wisdom made him the great man he was. 

He loved it so much that John Adams would often write to him in Greek.

He and his long term pal, John Adams, even corresponded in ancient Greek. 

When Alexander Hamilton entered King’s College (now Columbia University) in 1773, he read Cicero and Virgil’s Aeneid in the original Latin.

And before James Madison went to the College of New Jersey (now Princeton), he had already read Virgil, Horace, Justinian, Nepos, Caesar, Tacitus, Lucretius, Eutropius, Phaedrus, Herodotus, Thucydides, and Plato, to name a few.

Several of the founders, including Adams, attended Harvard... but back in the 1640s there were no ACT or SAT scores to enter the prestigious school. 

No application essays either. 

You just had to prove that you knew Latin and Greek.

And the Founding Fathers did. 

In fact, they once proposed making ancient Greek the official American language!!!

They knew the ancient writers and quoted them prolifically... They also knew the power and inspiration of ancient wisdom. 

So, how do you Discover all the wisdom of the ancients? How can you be inspired like the Founding Fathers? 

Stick with me and I’ll show you how.

In the next five minutes, you’ll find out how you can access all the most essential texts from the ancient world… 

....the exact words and wisdom that inspired the Founding Fathers and the very idea of America itself... 

...and how to do it for FREE.

For example, you’ll have at your fingertips…

• Important selections from the epic Poet, Homer; Including the revenge of Achilles as he stalks the plains of Troy within The Iliad, the trials of Odysseus as he faces down monsters, witches, and gods in pursuit of his homecoming within the epic, The Odyssey

• The three Tragedians: Aeschylus, Sophocles and Euripides, thought provoking moments from their prize-winning plays such as Oedipus Rex, Agamemnon, Medea, and more, all originally performed at the height of classical theater in ancient Athens.

• The great philosopher Plato’s most essential dialogues and writings, from his description of the Philosopher King to his theories on Atlantis

• Stoic Philosophy, a perspective on living life with less stress and more meaning, with writings from Epictetus and the great Roman emperor Marcus Aurelius

• Ancient Greek and Roman Historians, primary source materials to shed light on life 2,000 years ago as well as the wars and political strife that rocked the classical world and brought empires to their knees

Those are just a sampling of the 79 essential texts found within your Free 644 page edition…

A pretty huge anthology, I know.

Why would I give away? I’ll tell you who I am – and why I’ve decided to share this ebook with you today – in a moment.

First, let me show you some of the wisdom that might help you view the world differently than others…

Be A Skeptic - And Never Be Fooled Again

Take the ancient philosophy of Skepticism, an ancient philosophy that seems more important than ever in the modern world. 

In the era of ‘fake news’, partisan politics and division, Skepticism tells us to examine every argument and claim with a rational, measured approach. 

Ancient skeptics taught that we should look at both sides of every argument, suspending judgement until we have all the facts available - a lesson that certain political figures and news networks could learn a lot from!

Through the words and wisdom of the classical skeptics, you’ll learn to question everything, accepting nothing at face value. You’ll develop the wisdom to reach a fair and level-headed judgment on the pressing issues of the day.

You’ll acquire a reputation as the voice of ‘common-sense’ and moderation, able to deliver a calm and measured response while those around you are  losing their cool.  

At dinner parties and get-togethers, when your peers are bickering and arguing, they’ll turn to YOU to be the voice of reason and decide the debate.

Being a Skeptic will help you cut through all the hot-air and nonsense of modern life - and you’ll be happier and less stressed as a result.

Learn To Be Stoical...and Stress Will Be A Thing Of The Past

You’ll learn to become a more balanced person through the study of Stoicism. Their teachings seem almost tailor-made for the chaos and uncertainty of today’s world. 

At its core, Stoicism tells us that to be truly happy, we need to accept what’s happening to us, and no longer care that events are sometimes beyond our control. 

As Marcus Aurelius said, 

Discovering this wisdom not only enables you to withstand the chaos, but actually thrive in it. 

You’ll become more resilient, calm, and attuned to the world around you. Your friends will notice how serene you are, a cool-head in a crisis - a leader. 

And when the unexpected things that life has a habit of dropping in our laps happen? You’ll be able to handle them, understand what is happening to you, and learn from it. You’ll have become stoical.

“It does not matter what you bear, but how you bear it.”  - Seneca

Learning The Lessons of History...And Use Them To Your Advantage

It’s not only the ancient philosophers who can teach us how to live richer, fuller lives. The very act of studying classical HISTORY can reveal all kinds of insights and little-known knowledge. 

And you can apply it all to the modern world.

Interested in how extensive bureaucracy, inflation, and the influx of foreign capital can destabilize society and cause cataclysmic political shifts? 

Look no further than the rise and fall of the Roman Republic and its transformation into an expansionist empire. 

It may have happened 2000 years ago, but the parallels between the ancient and modern worlds are there for you to explore.

“Long before our time the customs of our ancestors molded admirable men, in turn these men upheld the ways and institutions of their forebears. Our age, however, inherited the Republic as if it were some beautiful painting of bygone ages, its colors already fading through great antiquity.” - Cicero

I could go on, but I think it’s high time I properly introduce myself! 

Hi, I'm Anya Leonard, Founder and Director of Classical Wisdom

 We are dedicated to bringing ancient wisdom to modern minds. 

I co-founded Classical Wisdom, along with Bill Bonner, owner of Agora Publishing, exactly 10 years ago this month.

And our whole goal was to spread the classics, and bring the ancients back to life.

Since we started, Classical Wisdom reaches over 500,000 inquiring minds across the world.

500,000 might sound like a lot, but that’s less than .02% of the U.S. population. Trust me when I say, by even reading this, you are in elite company.

I’m not just talking about professors and academics (though I know they read us also!), I’m also referring to CEOs, Billionaires, and Titans of industry... people who understand the power of ancient wisdom. 

And now, in order to achieve our goal of spreading the classics even further, we’re giving away all the most important ancient texts in The Essential Classics.

Each of the hand-picked original selections will help you become a more enriched, thoughtful person.

In fact, if this is your goal, then this could be the most important text you’ll get this year.

But you should know that’s not all...

Of course, all the ancient philosophers and historians knew that….

Knowledge Is Power…

Don’t Miss The Chance To Grow Your EXPERTISE, Hone Your INTELLECT, And Become Truly WISE

With a Classical Wisdom Society Membership, you can delve into every aspect of the classical period. That includes:

• Politics 

• Science 

The end result of being able to immerse yourself in this vast pool of learning? 

You will become WISE! (Or at least, WISER…).

When I chose the name Classical Wisdom it wasn’t an accident. 

I wanted to convey the idea that the classical world contained a great deal of wisdom - knowledge and ideas that have stood the test of time and which continue to benefit humanity.

Our mission is to pass this classical wisdom on, enabling people all over the world to learn from it and become wise themselves.

Think about that for a second. In the modern era, how many people have really earned that accolade? How many public figures or celebrities, when you think about them, would you label as ‘wise’?

Politicians? Too few, if any. Supreme Court Justices? Maybe. Social media ‘influencers’? Not likely!

The Path to Wisdom Is Through Knowledge...The Key To Knowledge Is…

It’s clear what the classics can do for you. But ask yourself, “what can I do for the classics?”

History is Under Attack

Preserving The Legacy Of The Classical Era - With YOUR Help

For ten years, Classical Wisdom has fought hard to preserve and disseminate the knowledge, culture, and traditions of the ancient world. We are world-renowned as experts in our field. When a global publication or news organization needs insight into the classics, they come to us.

The classics are our passion and our mission. To be the guardians of the philosophies, history and experiences that formed Western civilization is a privilege. 

But we cannot do it alone. We need YOUR help to ensure that we pass on the mysteries and marvels of antiquity to future generations.

The knowledge that we wish to entrust you with is sacred. It has burned bright for thousands of years. 

But there have been times when the flame has faded - and even come close to being extinguished.

The Dark Ages were one such time. As the tribal hordes ravaged Europe, wisdom and learning were no longer valued. Books were burned. Libraries and academies torn down. Scholars massacred. 

The ancient knowledge of the classical period came close to being lost - forever.

Thankfully, a handful of learned individuals heroically preserved the legacy of Classical Rome and Ancient Greece - we have a lot to thank them for.

Today, this ancient knowledge is as much under threat as it ever was. And it will take educated, cultured people like YOU to save it, preserving this vital legacy on behalf of humanity.

The Modern World Doesn’t Care About The Classics - Do You?

This time, the threat to the classics doesn’t come from barbarians at the gate - at least not literally. Instead, classical learning is in danger of being drowned out by all the noise, data and hype of the so-called ‘information age’.

More WORDS are being published every single day than at any other time in history.

On Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and other social media. On blogs. On personal websites. In ebooks. On a whole host of online ‘news’ publications. 

But how many of these many BILLIONS of words actually contain WISDOM?

Knowledge worth remembering? Wit and insight that will resonate for a thousand years? Cultural and artistic value worth cherishing? 

Decide for yourself. 

How much of what you read online is actually WORTH your time? Which TV shows that you watch or stream will still be celebrated 20 years from now? How about 2000 years from now?

And amidst all of this idle chatter and forgettable froth, the classics are being ignored. 

How many people under the age of 25 have heard of Herodotus? Which social media ‘influencers’ are spreading the wisdom of Socrates? How many Netflix ‘originals’ draw upon the drama and emotion of Sophocles or Euripides?

The depressing truth is that in the USA, and in the rest of the Western world, we have more or less forgotten the classical period.

There are fewer classical studies courses in universities and colleges than ever. Fewer high school students are studying Latin and Greek. Fewer politicians or leaders have had any kind of classical education. 

The classics, once the foundation of all Western education, are no longer in vogue. In fact, they are deeply unfashionable.

And if they are forgotten? The loss would be tragic and damaging - a damning indictment of the waning attention span and poor choices of the human race.

So thank the gods that there are still some of us willing to defend the very best parts of our heritage and culture.

I’ve made it my life’s work to preserve the classics. I’m hoping you’ll join me.

The Classics Are In Decline - But It Isn’t Too Late To Save Them

Will you take responsibility for the legacy of the ancients, carrying it forward to cast a light into our dark and unknown future?

By becoming a Classical Wisdom Society Member, YOU can be one of those to take up the torch and preserve the classics for generations to come. 

Think of yourself as an Olympian, carrying the sacred, undying flame aloft. A member of an elite fellowship, bound together by a shared love of classical learning.

Is bearing this torch a burden? No. Rather it lights the way, illuminating the world around you, keeping the shadows of ignorance and barbarism at bay. 

Not all are worthy, of course. Not everyone can have the sharpness of wit and the breadth of intellect to read and understand the classics. They are full of tricky concepts, intricate vocabulary, and momentous ideas. 

To be quite frank, they are beyond the comprehension of average men and women.

But I know that doesn’t apply to you. You are one of the select few who has what it takes to be a custodian of classical wisdom.

By reading this far, you’re already demonstrating a thirst for knowledge and a passion for antiquity. 

So I’d like to invite you to join us on our sacred mission, carrying the lessons of the past onwards into the new millennium. 

By becoming a Classical Wisdom Society Member, you can preserve the classics for the benefit of ALL humankind.
