For literature--the wolrd's great books--is the treasurebouse of that effort by which men in all times and cultures have tried to understand and express the nature and the possibilities of human experience. Because it is that, nothing in our heritage is more precious. Great books, as Matthew Arnold said, can "interpret life for us.. console us..sustain us." It is a simple fact that"to know ourselves and the world, " we must"know the best that has been thought and said in the world." Literature, above all else, is the principal source of "the best that has been thought and said."The scope of "World Literature Made Simple" is sweepingly inclusive -- beginning with the great literature of he ancient world--the literature of the Bible, the Greeks, and the Romans-- and extending through time to the literature of the present day. All the major kinds of literature--the epic, the novel, poetry, the short story--are explored closely and interpreted carefully--as works of arrt in themselves and against their historical and social backgrounds. And all this is presented--simply and clearly--so that the general reader can understand and absorb it without difficulty.
