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 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. 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

22 January 1973 is the date of the US Supreme Court decision of Roe v Wade. By 7-2 the 9 SCOTUS judges - all men - addressed the difficult topic of abortion with great care, respect and sensitivity. Great writing that is notorious and all over the news right now in 2022. ๐บ๐ธ๐คฆโโ๏ธ๐ถ๐ฉบ๐จโโ๏ธ

What links Audrey Hepburn and Bailey Sarian? Truman Capote. The famed author of Breakfast at Tiffany's also penned the book that started all this true crime fuss. Capote's "In Cold Blood" is the original true crime work. Thanks Truman, I guess. ๐บ๐ธโ๏ธ๐ต๐

In 1830 a cad named Edward Bulwer-Lytton opened his dreadful novel "Paul Clifford" with the words "It was a dark and stormy night" and to this day the Edward Bulwer-Lytton award for bad writing is awarded to purveyors of purple prose. But some great writing was associated with Bulwer-Lytton. Not his own, of course. ๐ด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ฅ๓ ฎ๓ ง๓ ฟ๐ฌ๐งโ๏ธ๐๐ฆ

Si Vis Pacem, Para Bellum. If you want peace, prepare for war. Roman wisdom from the year 430, as the Empire was in decline. An influential little book called De Re Militaris was created to encourage a return to Rome's glory days. The book remained popular with leaders until the 17th century. Not bad for a Roman writer named Vegetius.๓ ง๓ ข ๐ฎ๐น๐ฅฆ๐กโ๏ธโฎ๏ธ

The Count of Monte Cristo is a 19th century classic of adventure literature by Alexandre Dumas pere. It might as well have been titled "Revenge is a Dish Best Served Cold" or perhaps "How to escape prison using just a dead body in a sack and a hand-made shank". Serious fun. ๐ซ๐ทโฐ๐ก๐ก๐ฐ

Whistler's Mother is the famous American portrait by genius artist James Whistler. His mother was an austere religious woman but she adored being painted. And she couldn't resist writing all about it to her sister in a perfectly worded 'my-boy-is-the-best' letter. Pride is a sin, isn't it? ๐บ๐ธ๐จ๐ฉโ๐ฆ๐
