The study/hobby of Cryptanalysis, the deciphering of coded messages, has been used in recent years to draw students into the STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) disciplines. However, it can potentially also be used to introduce students to the works of well-known 19th and 20th century authors. This lecture will cover five classic short stories and show how they can be used to both promote the reading of good literature as well as teach the basics of Cryptanalysis.
