When I look at lists like these, it seems clear to me that the people who write them have no true intention of getting to the heart, soul and mind of the literary pursuit, and instead see it as just an excuse to fill their head with bunkum they can use at parties and impress to others that they're "educated."

I guarantee you, I would have a more fulfilling conversation with a wandering homeless man than I would with whomever wrote this.

lol, nice try to be the next meme..nice try...but nice fail
>than I would with whomever wrote this.
this list was compiled by 10s of thousands of geniuses from various fields over thousands of years. If you are serious, your simple personal projected baseless "have no true intention of getting to the heart, soul and mind of the literary pursuit," is entirely ridiculous, if you knew the content of a single one of these texts or few of them, and we assume someone in charge of compiling this list has read at least one or a few of the texts, then we must assume you are a fool for making such a gung ho broad brushed accusation for no other reason than making your self feel better by not being a stuffy sell out, in the face of such an enormous amount of content that can do nothing more than make you shutter at its power and strength if you consider yourself a writer or thinker.

No, that's who wrote the CONTENTS of the list. The actual list itself was written by somebody looking to promote an arbitrary idea of a "civilised" person.

I have, unironically, no appreciation for either poetry or drama. I love the Epics but that's where that stops.
