Harold Bloom, The Western Canon: The Books and School of the Ages [1995]
2107 entries: 1637 monographical, 470 otherwise
Unrankedarranged (roughly) chronologically within national, linguistic, or ethnic categories placed within four broader historical sections: The Theocratic Age; The Aristocratic Age; The Democratic Age; and The Chaotic Age
Since its publication, the list at the back of Bloom's book has surpassed Fadiman's, Adler's, or Eliot's in citations, name-recognition, popularity, notoriety, what-have-you, even as Bloom insists that he did not grant the list the kind of attention that we might expect, that it was the fault of publishers, editors, agents: "I left out a lot of things that should be there and I probably put in a couple of things that I now would like to kick out." Alas, even if Bloom really did make the list one afternoon without prior research or later editing, it was still put together with greater care and knowledge than some of the lists documented at Greater Books.
