A giant fucking reading list

[Anonymous No.14352277]

I've made this list many months ago. Been holding off posting it to give self time to actually start reading it. It's mostly chronological, philosophy focused. The reason it's not exactly chronological is because I believe that some works are intertwined, and should be read side by side. Cherry pick from this introduction to literature.

>Epic of Gilgamesh (Steven Mitchel translation) / Homer's Illiad and Odysee (Lattimore for Illiad, but Odysee by Fagels) / Virgil's Aenied (Fagels)
Why Virgil right after Homer? Because Virgil's work is a fan fiction of Homer's work. Not going to recc specific translations from this point out.
