Works a Literature Major Studied in College

As a Literature major, here are the books/plays/short stories/poems/etc. I studied in class. The poems, short stories, etc. I studied are not complete in this list. This is just what I studied in school--there were also I lot of books I read during free time, which are not included in this list.
