						Hi.
I am looking for some guides to literature that will give the best works as judged by consensus, has some discussion of the major authors, the periods etc. I am looking for guides of the following:
Classical literature of Greek and Latin
Literature of Continental Europe
Modern Literature, from about 1900 onwards.
Thank you for any suggestions
