I’ve read most of these authors but few of these works. I think this is a splendid list for anyone interested in casting a critical eye not only on everyone else but also on themselves.

Yes, I agree — a good list that I will mark.

That list was a lot better than I thought it would be.

Glad to see Moliere's masterpiece Tartuffe is on the list. Best read in French to appreciate the poetry.

Yes, pretty much all good books over 100 years old are public domain and available on the internet. Also, all of the books on this list are classics and should be in any good public or college or high school library.

a bit of a political agenda, lacks teaching patriotism, respect or appreciation of US exceptionalism.

I confess that I posted this list because it includes Whittaker Chambers' autobiography 'Witness', a book that should be read by every American. The National Association of Scholars is a conservative academic group.

I have only read six of these—and seen the movie versions of a few others—so I have a lot of reading to do.
