LIterature in Star Trek

Well we know they love Shakespeare in the future (to be fair they're probably just utilising Patrick Stewarts talents, although they also talk about him in ST6). Moby Dick and others are also mentioned, yes the classics survive into the future - somethings truly are "timeless").

Much earlier than that. Shakespeare's been part of Trek since at least TOS The Conscience of the King.
 
In my answer to this question https://www.quora.com/Why-are-Tolkiens-books-still-popular-even-though-they-are-very-old in another site, I happened to mention some very old literature mentioned in Star trek episodes, saying that the creators of those episodes thought that those very old stories might still be known in the 24th century.

Right.

So instead of making novel-length posts here (which you were warned for) you come back a year later and simply link to another site where you have a 54 paragraph essay on every book you’ve ever read.

The vast majority of which have nothing to do with Star Trek. Again.

The topic of “Literature in Star Trek” is fine, but here it’s just a cover for you to continue the same thing you were warned about before.

Do not do this again, or your thread will be closed and you will be warned.
