I am someone who is very curious about a wide range of things, and I would like to learn about as much stuff as possible, mainly out of curiosity/for the fun of learning. My main interest is in the humanities and arts (ex. philosophy, religion, arts criticism) but I am open to other topics as well, can be as wide or as niche as you want, as long as it's related to whatever you're studying/teaching/etc. and (preferably) is a textbook or academic text.

It’s not really a textbook, but “From Dawn to Decadence: 1500 to the Present” was written by a prominent scholar (Jacques Barzun), and provides a history of Western culture.
