There is a deeper problem, though: Why should we read works by long-dead authors with concerns entirely different than ours, and if we should, how can we do so?

Shakespeare, Goethe, etc. use UNIVERSAL themes.

If the retard who wrote this crap doesn't know that, he is clueless on the topic he is pretending to write about.
