A free, multilingual library of the classics

Epoche is a free, multilingual reading library of public-domain classics — philosophy, literature, history, scripture and more — with text-to-speech, side-by-side translations, and AI study tools. Read thousands of works in their original language and in translation.

Every public work can be read free in the browser, with original-language texts alongside translations, natural text-to-speech narration, and optional AI reading assistance. The collection spans philosophy, literature, history, religion, science and the arts, drawn from the public domain and openly-licensed sources.
