APPENDIX

A List of the Great

tsooks

Tur following list is not intended as a complete bibliography of worthwhile reading, nor even as a complete inventory of the grearest books of Western culture. I have limited myself to naming only those great books rvhich are readily

available in currenr English translations. I have also limited myself to books which do not require, for rhe most part, any special background or preparation. These two limitations naturally tencl to exclude some ol the classics of matltematics and experinental science. Itr these two fields, the wor-k of translation into English is far from_being cornpleted, and in many cases wl-rele in English translation has been made it is not ar.ailable iri an inexpensive edition. It may. be quesrioned, furchermorc, whether some of dle great mathcmatical and scientific works I have irrcluded can be pr.ofitably examined by the untutored in these fieIds. I have already ans\verecl this question afirmatively and suggested that these books are intelligible if taken in their historical order. Even if I arn wrong about this point, as I may be, I drink everyone rvill agree that a iist of great books rvoulcl be saclly cleficient iI all mathcmarical and scientific books wer.e omitted. And ccr_ tainly there are many people r,vho alreaciy do have suflicient background, provided by textbook cour.ses in mathematics and science, to tvarrant rheir looking into dte original com_ munir:ations which textbooks can ne\rel. , eplacel Most of the authors and most of the titles are, I arn sure,
q73

A LIST OI' THE GREAT BOOKS 374 generally famrliar names, even when the books themselves have not been seen. (In most cases, you can probably guess from the title the kind of book it is and the field to which it belongs.) Names which are strange to some may be familiar to others. I hope that the strangeness of some of these authors and titles will not dismay or deter you. There is nothing here so.5cg.pdi:: that it is esoteric, nothing that a trttle courage wrtt not conquer. It is wise, of course, to begin with those books that interest yoU .most, for whatevef --l6dson. As I ltave said -rnany times before, the primary aim is to read well, not widely. A list of books should not be regarded as a challenge which you can meet only by finishing every item on it. It should be regarded as an inaitationwhich you can accept graciously by beginning wherever you {eel most at home. The authors are listed. chronologically, according to the known or conjectured clate of their birth..The several works by a particular author are also arranged chronoIogically, where this is possible. I have tried to give the date when a book was .frsf published in the original language of its author. This is fairly easy to do for modern books, but relatively difficult for most of the ancient ones. In the latter case, I have used the dates which reliable scholarship has assigned, tl-rough even here in many instances the scholars disagree. Minor inaccuracies in the dating of works need not concern us. Wherever a date oI publication is not assigned, it is simply because tire knowl. edge is lacking or because there is too much scholarly disagreement about the matter, I have not listed all the works of every author. I have cited only the more important titles, selecting them, in the

expository books, to shors the diversity of an author's contribution to different fieids of learning. In some instances, I have found it necessary to speak o1 the author's Works, and to specify in brackets underneath the titles which are especially important. In making a list of this kind, tirg _greatgqL difficulry ahvays arises_-with respect to the relaiiviiy conte-pora.y ire.,r.The nearer one comes to one's own day, the more clifficult ir is toeiircise a detached judgment. Here one,s judgment must be tentative, and there is much room for riasonable difierences of opinion. For this reason, I have separated the contemporaries from the main list. Tlne great iuthors are numbered consecutively. The good cont;porar.,. authois' are marked by the letters"of the alphabet. The separarion here is not between the living and the dead, because some authors who have died recently are as contemporary as those still living. Disagreement about inclusions or exclusions l,ili probably. foc u on rhe contempomry list. I ofier it only ,, ,.rg_ gestion. Everyone must decide for himself it heiher "these authors are truly great and should be adcled to the main list. The verdict of history will derel.mine rtherher vour judgment is right. As to the main lisc, there may also be some minor disagreements. I can think at or-rce of names and titles that rvill be suggested: tine Erutead; of plotinus, the Little Fiouers of St. Francis, rhe .works of Schopenhauer, the novels of Thomas Hardy, the apologetical and l.ristorical writings of .|ohn Henry Ner.r,man-_totention :. few of the more obvious omissions. In some cases, such omissions are due to lack of an adequate English render_ ing; in others, ro the judg'ment, rvhich I had 6 make, that

a particular work was not of the saine magnitude as those listed; and in still others, to the judgment that an author's importance was more attributable to his IiIe and actions than to his writings. One could not hope to construct a list of this sort without encountering differences of opinion, precisely because such judgments have to be made, one way or the other. I can only hope that the number oi additions or subtractions which anyone might wish to make would constitute a small percentage of the total list. If that turns out to be the case, I shall feel satisfied that the list is fairly representative-that it encompasses what is generally recognized to be the European tradition. Ultimately everyone should make his own list of great books. I think it would be wise, however, .to read a few of the books which have been unanimously acclaimed before you start. The more you .read, of course, the better. This list is a starter.

Ior the convenience of the reader in acquiring copies of tlre great books, either at a bookstore or at a library, I have indicated the good, inexpensive editions, wherever they exist. The key to the abbreviations, used to signify these editions, is given be1ow. Most of the books avaiiable in popular editions are also available in other editions which are not listed here. These other editions are frequently worth consulting Ior they are olten better translations or more authoritative renderings of the text; and in some cases, they presept the complete work which the popular and inexpensive editions give in an abbreviated for:n. In the case oI books which are not available in popular editions, the most readily procurable edition is listed, though again tJ:is may not be the oniy ptrblished version of the work.
