Any of the Penguin Classics are good for beginnersI recomend Heroditus, or Livy. Not any poetry or plays though, too fucking difficult.
The Greek Myths, told by Robert Graves, with his explainations are pretty good. I don't know if his reasoning is still accepted. Aparently it was all about males claiming domination after being ruled by women.
