I had a thought about a 2012 reading goal but given how little time I've had to read recently I'm not sure if it's prudent.

A few ideas I was throwing around:

1. Continuing with the "Second Thirty Years' War" concept with more reading about the interwar period and by writers writing at that time, and keeping up with the French and German reading in particular.

2. (Harder) Reading 10 books in Latin, 10 in Classical Greek and 10 more books of the Bible in Hebrew.

3. Delving into psychoanalytical books by focusing on Freud and Jung

4. Doing a medieval literature focus and reading those works in the original (Das Niebelungenlied, Tristan et Yseult, the Arthurian legends by both Mallory and Chrétien de Troyes, La Divina Commedia, the Decameron, il Principe, maybe Lazarillo de Tormes is even "medieval" enough).
