Relevant to this thread is Stuart Kelly's 2006 book, [The Book of Lost Books: An Incomplete History of All the Great Books You'll Never Read] (http://www.amazon.com/The-Book-Lost-Books-Incomplete/dp/1400062977/), which surveys several dozen lost works from Sappho (we have just a handful of works from her many volumes of poetry), Aeschylus, Euripides, and Sophocles, to Chaucer, Pope, Coleridge, Goethe and many others. It's quite a fun and enlightening read.
