Late 17/18th century English literature

Pope, Swift, Fielding, Behn, etc. Is this an era of writing worth exploring at the expense of others? Or is it forever doomed to be a dull period between the Renaissance and Romanticism?

I'm asking because I enjoy reading books in historical groupings and this is an era I'm not enthused about.

Why does /lit/ never talk about Norse mythology?

Are they still stuck in neoclassicism? Why haven't they widened their scope?
I'd say the Germanic/Nordic component has been just as important to Western civilization.

so /lit/ how many of you suck at math? I never been good at math and somewhat advance in the humanities such as history and English. I'd say i'm at best mediocre in science. Most people say that you're either good at math and science or just English and writing. Do you feel this is true? I personally think its bullshit but what would i know considering I sit in math class wondering wtf is going on

More like this? I read it a couple of years ago and haven't found another piece of literature that makes me feel the bittersweetness I felt while reading Stoner. It doesn't need to be an academic novel per se, but it would help if it were.

How does one overcome nihilism?
What thought process or disposition can refute this:

"Nothing I do matters, making an effort is hard and does not matter and the reasons for doing so are unclear, I'll do little."

I'll expect the usual 'le grow up' replies which I'll ignore as they don't rile me to action. I need reasons actual reasons. So how? And who to read? (not freddy)
