English Poetry II

Viac o knihe

This extensive 51-volume collection features seminal writings in literature, philosophy, history, and mythology, curated by Charles William Eliot, Harvard's longest-serving president. Known as "Dr. Eliot's Five Foot Shelf," it embodies his vision that a fundamental liberal education can be achieved through a carefully selected anthology. Originally published between 1909 and 1917 as the "Harvard Classics," the set aims to provide readers with a comprehensive foundation of essential texts that fit within a five-foot bookshelf.
