Classics Retold: Master Post

Posted by Charlene // Tags: ,
It's time to read and revel in the Classics!  This post will serve as introduction and event hub for all participants in 19th Century and Gothic Classics.  Welcome!  I would so appreciate it if all the participants could please add a link to ALL of your Classics Retold related posts to the following page so I can add it neatly to the list below.


All participants have picked a Classic novel to read and review, and also read and review related adaptations, spin-offs and retellings in any format (from page to screen!). Other related posts can be for character analysis or the influence of your book in pop culture.  Or anything you can think of that explores aspects of your book.  I'm hosting 19th Century and Gothic Classics, while my fellow lovely blogger co-hosts are in charge of the following:

Ancient to Renaissance Lit Classics - Alyssa @ Books Take You Places
Mythology - Brittany @ Book Addicts Guide
Children's Classics - Alison @ The Cheap Reader
American and Misc Classics - Wendy @Excellent Library

Please check out their blogs for more Classics fun, and also check out the links below!  Sadly we are not looking for any new participants for this event, but do feel free to read and comment on everyone's posts!   There are a couple additional events for Classics Retold:
  • Alison at The Cheap Reader has created a Classics Challenge question series which can be added to your posting schedule.  Check out this post for more information.
  • Angela at Angela's Anxious Life is co-hosting a Classics related giveaway hop from Sept 10th-17th - check out this post for all the participants.

Thank you for visiting, and special thanks to all the wonderful bloggers who are making this event happen! I look forward to visiting ALL the blogs this month! :)  Tomorrow I'll be posting my review of The Time Machine, my chosen classic!
