If you were like me and an idiot when you first read them go back and revisit the Iliad and Odyssey, major Shakespeare, Austen, Dickens and Woolf.

If you're actually serious and not just shit posting, get Bloom's Western Cannon and use the back for suggestions. He lists an enormous amount of books from most countries and time period. Assuming you already read the essential canonic works.

If you wanted to further solidify the stereotype that we're all retarded so badly, you could've just joined q hang.

>English Ph.D.
But why? Have you looked at how saturated the market is with English Ph.D.s?
>>8665898
In that case, you should be doing comp lit if you want to get a job afterwards.

this is actually the best thing you can do with your time if you're getting an English Ph.D. Take asian language classes, they're the ones hiring
