The studio, in a paragraph
1732 Studios makes guided editions of the great books — the original text beside a clear English translation, aligned line by line, read aloud, with the grammar and context of every line a tap away. Where no worthy public-domain translation exists, the studio makes its own. The catalogue runs from Homer’s Greek to Dostoevsky’s Russian to Sōseki’s Japanese, and the same care extends beyond the apps: complete audiobooks, and the studio’s translations published as books. The motto is the method: read the great books as they were written.
The facts
- Catalogue: thirteen works in twelve languages — eleven guided editions built or in review, with Homer’s Iliad (Ancient Greek) and Somadeva’s Nītivākyāmṛta (Sanskrit) in the works.
- Now on the App Store: Odyssey: Learn Ancient Greek — the complete poem, all 12,107 lines, every line read aloud in reconstructed Homeric pronunciation.
- Texts: public domain, complete and unabridged — never anthologies or excerpts. Translations are public-domain classics or the studio’s own; no in-copyright translation is ever embedded.
- Pricing: first chapter free with every feature; one purchase unlocks the complete edition. No subscription, no ads.
- Privacy: speech analysis runs on device. A reader’s voice never leaves their phone.
- Platforms: iPhone and iPad, one universal app per work.
The Odyssey productions
Two productions of the same poem, released for the summer the Odyssey returns to theaters:
- The edition — the complete Greek text beside the studio’s own line-aligned translation, with word-by-word grammar built on the Perseus treebank, a working dactylic-hexameter scanner, and on-device pronunciation scoring: read a line of Homer aloud and hear how you did, sound by sound.
- The audiobook — all twenty-four books, more than eighteen hours, performed in reconstructed Ancient Greek pronunciation with the pitch accent restored and every verse shaped to its hexameter. To our knowledge, the first complete audiobook of the Odyssey in Ancient Greek. Narration is a directed digital voice, disclosed as such on every storefront.
