The Harvard Universal Classics, originally known as Dr. Eliot's Five Foot Shelf, is a 51-volume anthology of classic works from world literature compiled and edited by Harvard University president Charles W.

Neilson, a professor of English; Eliot determined the works to be included and Neilson selected the specific editions and wrote introductory notes.
