( newly updated TOC )The Harvard Universal Classics, originally known as Dr. Eliot's Five Foot Shelf, is a 51-volume anthology of classic works from world literature, compiled and edited by Harvard University president Charles W. Eliot and first published in 1909.Eliot had stated in speeches that the elements of a liberal education could be obtained by spending 15 minutes a day reading from a collection of books that could fit on a five-foot shelf. (Originally he had said a three-foot shelf.) The publisher P. F. Collier and Son saw an opportunity and challenged Eliot to make good on this statement by selecting an appropriate collection of works, and the Harvard Classics was the result.Eliot worked for one year with William A. Neilson, a professor of English; Eliot determined the works to be included and Neilson selected the specific editions and wrote introductory notes. Each volume had 400–450 pages, and the included texts are "so far as possible, entire works or complete segments of the world's written legacies." The collection was widely advertised by Collier and Son, in Collier's and elsewhere, with great success.Eight years later Eliot added a further 20 volumes as a sub-collection titled 'The Harvard Classics Shelf of Fiction', offering some of the greatest novels and short stories of world literature. The exhaustive anthology of the 'The Harvard Classics' comprises every major literary figure, philosopher, religion, folklore and historical subject up to the twentieth century.

I remember as a young girl visiting a great aunt who loved books, and spending hours looking at her multi-volume set of “Great Books of the Western World”. I was able to discover great authors and books from several millennia! With this in mind, when I downloaded my kindle purchase of The “Complete Harvard Classics”, I looked forward to browsing through the table of contents and learn what readings had been included in the volume. I was therefore surprised and very disappointed that the table of contents just listed Volume one, Volume two, etc. If I wanted to learn what books were included, that would require painstakingly clicking on volume after volume or looking it up elsewhere.Fro the time being I have sadly rated this purchase as two stars, but am hoping that the sellers can provide an update with a detailed and usable table of contents. Then I will be happy to upgrade my rating.
