Some Books Read for an English Degree - Page 2

Many years ago, I majored in English in college. These are some books I read for that degree. This doesn't count regular textbooks (for things like linguistics) and probably leaves off some books I've forgotten!
I noticed too late that I accidentally clicked on "Oedipus the King" instead of "Oedipus at Colonus" for the second Oedipus play, so Oedipus Rex is on the list twice!
