In 1810 when Edgar Allan Poe was just a year old, German writer Heinrich von Kleist wrote a Poe-like tale that had all the Poe-type elements but not quite the panache of the American. Kleist came before Poe. Still, von Kleist's work is a vital literary building block by a great writer. ๐ฉ๐ช ๐ต๐ฐ๐ก๐ฅ๐ป

Roald Dahl is most famous for Charlie & The Chocolate Factory, James & The Giant Peach and Matilda. But his short story collection called ย Tales of the Unexpected is a classic of thriller literature. So good Alfred Hitchcock loved it. ๐ฌ๐ง๐๐ต๐ฝโ๏ธ

In 2017 US Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts gave a gem of a commencement speech to middle school graduates at a New Hampshire boys' school. His speech was beautifully written and the advice unusual but very wise. ย ๐บ๐ธ๐จโโ๏ธ๐จโ๐๐จโ๐๐จโ๐๐จโ๐๐จโ๐๐จโ๐

The first recorded recipe for glass was found in 1845 in the Library at Nineveh, founded by King Ashurbanipal of Assyria around 650 BCE. In 1970 the recipe was put to the test (not including the sheep sacrifice). And it worked. It may be ancient but it's still chemistry. ๐ฎ๐ท๐ฅ๐ธ๐ฅ๐บ๐ฅ

Charlotte Bronte's "Jane Eyre" is a great galumphing bodice ripping romance novel with a terrific storyline. We have Charlotte to thank for the concept of the mad woman in the attic. Some people call it the the world's first feminist novel but don't let that put you off. ๐ฌ๐ง๐โ๏ธโโค๏ธโ๐

In 1954 "space opera" was a pejorative term applied to the literary genre of sci fi pulp fiction. It was considered low brow writing. But it takes a creative mind to explore a possible space alien future. And good writing makes the exploration fun for all. ๐บ๐ธ๐ฝ๐พ๐ธ๐๐ก

Modern historians are indebted to him and Cicero called him 'the father of history'. Herodotus wrote his Histories over two thousand years ago and they are as exciting as any airport novel. If you love the movie "300" you'll love the original tale. ๐ฌ๐ท๐ฎ๐ทโ๏ธ๐๐ฅ
