Price History of Bellerophon

Description of Bellerophon

Bellerophon transforms your mild-mannered iPhone or iPad into a bastion of scholarship. Browse a compendious library comprising thousands of texts ranging from Homer to Ammianus Marcellinus to Beowulf and spanning millennia, compare multiple works side-by-side, add your own notes and bookmarks for quick reference, view morphological analyses for Greek and Latin texts, and more! Bellerophon includes the following features: * Over 3,500 texts in 10 languages included, with no internet access needed! * Includes texts ranging from canonical classical works to lesser-known authors like Quintus Smyrnaeus and Anna Komnena, to works outside the traditional sphere of classics such as Beowulf, ancient Jewish and biblical texts, and much more! Most texts are in the original language, but the collection also includes over 900 translations into English, as well as some surprising versions of familiar works (such as Aristotle's Poetics in Arabic). * For Greek and Latin, you can request morphological analyses from the Perseus Digital Library by double-tapping on a word (note that this does require an internet connection). * Quickly navigate any text via a hierarchical table of contents, add your own bookmarks for even faster reference to specific sections, or just jump straight to a particular passage by entering it in citation form. * Search the full text of any document, matching on a specific word or substring, and page through results. * Open multiple windows side-by-side in the same session: you can compare the different passages of the same text, view the original alongside a translation, or juxtapose entirely separate texts. * Add your own notes to record new vocabulary or whatever else you like. Additionally, many texts include the contents of footnotes originally present in the printed editions, ranging from apparatus criticus entries to helpful background information.

  • Fantastic App - In Need of a Couple Tweaks

    I use this app nearly every day in my phone and my iPad. It’s lightning fast and allows me to read for pleasure, or hone in on a particular word or phrase in a given text. As another reviewer said, it’s great for reading and research. There are so few typos (and some have been corrected already in the big authors like Seneca or Plato), so I’m confident I can read for pleasure and have never hit a confusing sentence that wasn’t just my fault!

    I’d like to see two things to improve this app. First, the Latin dictionary will tell me the form but not the meaning. I get both in Greek when I highlight a word and press “Analyze” in the menu that pops up. All I get in Latin when I do the same is the form. Having the dictionary built right in is clutch! And so the app is only halfway there.

    I’d also like to see a Mac version, or at least a good way to export highlights. I found myself highlighting at first, and I still will for certain authors when I know I’ll come back to the app. But since the highlights can’t easily be moved or synced (to my knowledge), they feel kind of locked in and so I find myself highlighting less. Even just a text export would help me move it to a spreadsheet or something more permanent.

    Thanks for developing this fantastic app and making it free! I hope it just continues to get better and the corpus keeps growing! I’s love to see more Late Antiquity/Patristic authors. I read some Cyprian of Carthage but no Gregory the Great, for example.

  • Decent

    Layout of the app is great. Some greek paraing seems to be incorrect
  • An astonishing app

    A truly incredible selection of ancient texts in their original languages and English translations, with a beautiful interface. One of the top five apps in existence.
