You basically have my taste in books without as much classical texts. I can see you have the Iliad and the Odyssey to the side. I would recommend the poetry of Horace, Propertius and Virgil as well as the Aeneid. I would also recommend reading Tacitus, Julius Caesar and Cicero. Just read more classics basically.

If that may reassure you all the poetry is in bilingual edition (except Dickinson), which is really useful and I have books in English and German laying around elsewhere. I find it always a difficult question to know wether to get the original or the translated version. Even if I'm able to understand the words on the page, I don't think I can always understand the style. I just read Les Diaboliques by Barbey d'Aurevilly and I'm pretty sure that if French was my second language, I wouldn't have enjoyed it as much as I did. Same could be said for Molière for instance. I think it's useful to trust translators in that regard. Some works are also probably too difficult to be really enjoyed in their original language like Ulysses or Faust 2. It's all about comprise. There's also the fact that I mostly get my books from used books stores, who don't have much books in English and make me dependant of what they have since I don't like ordering online.
That being said, it's true that I probably read too much in my native language. But I've tried to do it less recently.

I'm not really big on Greek drama, especially the comedies. I read the golden ass many years before I really got into antiquity and I thought it was ok. I havent had an urge to reread it.

Loebs are good if youre interested in translations. Its more of a preference for something more academic but really for lay reading other translations are good.

I like the landmark edition. There are some good notes in them although I feel that he wasted way too much space on pointing out places on maps.

And the sonnets is so large because it includes a facsimile and copious notes on each sonnet

His Law & Economics writing is definitely turgid, but all economic writing is turgid.

He's much more interesting as a judge than an academic. The Law & Literature book is okay; its best parts are on judicial style and on the prevalence of unnecessary jargon in legal writing, his complaints about the Bluebook, his discussion of many judicial opinions being effectively ghostwritten by law clerks, etc.

I'll happily concede that he has drippy writing in the sense that he essentially writes in a stream of consciousness, and can be repetitive, and often plagiarizes himself, so once you've read a couple of his books you get a constant feeling of deja vu.

But he's valuable as a relatively impartial, apolitical observer of American law. He denigrates the left and the right equally. For example, he hated both Ginsburg and Scalia, and admires both Breyer and Kavanaugh. I find this thoroughly respectable.

He's also very funny. Sometimes unintentionally, but more often intentionally than many commentators seem to realize. Maybe we just share a sense of humor—the same sort of sense of humor seen in Kafka.

Respectable. I'd recommend trying out Lysistrata, too, though.

When I get a book, I simply hold it up to the other ones, see which book on the left is taller, and on the right is shorter, and then remove books of similar width from the left and move it to the right end of the lower shelve. I continue this until I reach a shelf that doesn’t need to be moved to make room. But I still leave an accumulative inch of space throughout each shelf to not squeeze the books tightly, allowing me to take a book and reshelf it without upsetting the balance.

how much did this whole shelf costed?
I've read a few of those books (Shankar, Spivak and Misner&Thorne come to mimd) and would prefer to buy them, but they were to damn expensive to justify the cost when I could lend them for free at my uni for almost unlimited time (since just a handful of students were interested in them).
Where I live they are just as expensive second hand.

truth is, you come out as a tryhard pseud with no personal tastes, only people like you will appreciate this shelf and you will be stuck forever with midwits. What I say may sound mean but it's really more of an advice. Develop your own tastes faggot.
