Europe begins to emerge and take its place as the leader of world events, a place it will hold for the next several centuries.
Briefly, on the works that I have selected: There seems to be a discrepancy in the recommended readings from Emile Faguet's "History of English Literature" I am looking into that at this time. I have not picked out books for #48 Shakespeare yet, there are so many out there. I want to include as many plays as I can, but dont want to have to use a ten volume set to get all the plays, or should I include that many volumes? On the edition of "Don Quixote" that I picked; there are a lot editions of those work out there too, I tried to find the best one I could which included all the story. If I find that is not what I have selected I will find another at a future date.
