Is there a more based work about the story of western literature than the works of Carpeaux?
While nobody here, except for brazilians, would know who this guy was, his book covers the greeks until the first half of the XX century, including the major writers from every nation.
What are the best works in english about the subject? I've read some Bloom (The Western Canon) but he only talks about two dozens of authors, while Carpeaux talk about virtually everyone that mattered
No one knows who Carpeaux is on /lit/, my fellow monkey. He's not been translated to English. Why bother posting this thread?

Ford Madox Ford's The March of Literature. Begins with Confucious, however!
