Ce qu'il faut lire dans sa vie by Henri Mazel
"Ce qu'il faut lire dans sa vie" by Henri Mazel is a literary guide written in the early 20th century. The work serves as a reflection on the importance of reading, especially classic literature, and proposes a structured reading plan for different stages of life. It emphasizes the value of intellectual nourishment and the risk of neglecting significant works amidst the distractions of modern living. The opening portion presents a contemplative narrator
who is alarmed by the realization of how many significant literary works he has yet to read by the age of forty. He laments the time wasted on trivial readings and reflects on a more intentional approach to literature. The narrative sets the stage for a guide that will categorize readings into age-appropriate selections, highlighting the importance of engaging with great authors as a way to cultivate the mind and soul throughout one's life. The discussion of various genres and authors underscores a systematic approach to literary appreciation, aiming to enrich the reader’s experience and understanding of literature.
