HE HEOCRATIC GE

“Since the literary canon is at issue here, I include only those religious,

philosophical, historical, and scientific writings that are themselves of

great aesthetic interest. I would think that, of all the books that are in

this first list, once the reader is conversant with the Bible, Homer, Plato,

the Athenian dramatists, and Virgil, the crucial work is the Koran . . .

“I have included some Sanskrit works, scriptures and fundamental

literary texts, because of their influence on the Western canon. The

immense wealth of ancient Chinese literature is mostly a sphere apart

from Western literary tradition and is rarely conveyed adequately in the

translations available to us.” (p. 531)

HE RISTOCRATIC GE

“It is a span of five hundred years from Dante's Divine Comedy through

Goethe's Faust, Part Two [1321-1832], an era that gives us a huge body of

reading in five major literatures: Italian, Spanish, English, French, and

German.

“In this and in the remaining lists, I sometimes do not mention

individual works by a canonical master, and in other instances I attempt

to call attention to authors and books that I consider canonical but

rather neglected.

“From this list onward, many good writers who are not quite central

are omitted. . . . ” (p. 534)

HE EMOCRATIC GE

“I have located Vico's Democratic Age in the post-Goethean nineteenth

century, when the literature of Italy and Spain ebbs, yielding eminence to

England with its renaissance of the Renaissance in Romanticism, and to

a lesser degree to France and Germany.

American literature begins.” (p. 540)

of any kind.” (p. 548)
