    Sounds like a great semester! No doubt will think about this the next time I pick up Munro.

      Munro is amazing. I'm teaching her work in two different classes this fall.

    I would take any class you taught 😊. You are an amazing speaker. Not all faculty are 😉. I love the temporal counterbalances. That’s inspiring!

      @@jlstrick1 Thanks! I never think of myself as a very good speaker, so I appreciate that. Finding the right balance is always tricky. There’s always so many things to account for. Always a work in progress, I guess.

    I think I'm going to look into Munro next year. Is she write like Maupassant?

    How come noone reads Don Quixote anymore, considered by readers and scholars to be the greatest novel ever written.

    Is there a reading list for your STU program on great books?

    • @GreatBooksProf
      @GreatBooksProf  2 месяца назад +1

      Hi, these are some of the books I teach in first year. I actually just posted a complete reading list for this year's first-year course on my Patreon page (it's free). The reading list for the whole program would be long, and changes from year to year, but you can find more information on the STU website.

    The title of this video made me think that there was going to be a reading list of great books that I could look at. Where is the reading list?

      I noted some in the description. The Progress of Love is the first collection of her stories that I ever read. But Penguin collected some of her stories into a collection called Family Furnishing a while back and that looks, to me, like a good one too.
