Modern texts for context

Hi all,

here's a link to some e-texts of prominent literary works or essays that encapsulate (i.e. "Hollow Men" by T.S. Eliot) Modern writing, or have had some influence on the shaping of ideas during this modern period (i.e. "Origins of the Species" by Charles Darwin).

Some notable things to read from the site:

- Origins of the Species (read the original!)
- John Stuart Mill's Utilitarianism, The Subjection of Women,
- Charles Baudelaire
- Henry Ford "My Life and My Work" (an example of a life according to utilitarian principles)
-Einstein-Freud correspondance
- Futurist Manifestoes (look at how the Futurists embraced technology)
- (for aesthetics) Igor Stravinsky's writings on his music
- Lewis Mumford's "What is a city?"
- the lit in section 3
