Fiction is theology/philosophy made enjoyable through fake scenarios. Proust is Bergson and Schopenhauer in fiction form for example. You have no brain power to enjoy fiction for what it can achieve.
Main Street by Sinclair Lewis is basically an exploration of what happens when women become college educated. It's from 1920 and is incredible. Wikipedia calls him a liberal but that's liberal in the old time sense; his view of women and gender is level-handed and neutral.

Nietzsche describe el pensamiento de Polibio, que teniendo en su mente al hombre de acción, dice que el estudio de la historia política constituye la más adecuada preparación para el gobierno del Estado y es la mejor maestra que, al recordarnos los infortunios de otros, nos amonesta a soportar con firmeza los cambios de la fortuna.

Some light has recently been cast on the problem of play in Plato’s work, as well as on the nature of play in general, by the Homo Ludens of Jan Huizinga, Homo Ludens (Basel, 1944).
In the new, very humane climate were written the Characters of Theophrastus (ca. 370–287), the successor of Aristotle as scholarch of the Lyceum.

Theoretical superiority as a factor in the victory of Christianity over paganism in the Roman Empire, for instance, is strongly stressed in Charles N. Cochrane, Christianity and Classical Culture: A Study of Thought and Action from Augustus to Augustine (New York, 1944), esp. chaps. 11 and 12.
The technical superiority of Christian over Greek metaphysics has, furthermore, received careful treatment in Étienne Gilson, L’Esprit de la philosophie médiévale, 2d ed. (Paris, 1948), esp. chaps. 3, 4, and 5.
The continuity of development from Greek into Christian theoretical explication of experiences of transcendence, on the other hand, was clarified by Jaeger’s Theology of the Early Greek Philosophers.
In this contemporary debate comes to life again the great problem of the praeparatio evangelica that had been understood by Clement of Alexandria when he referred to Hebrew Scripture and Greek philosophy as the two Old Testaments of Christianity (Stromates vi). On this question see also Serge Boulgakof, Le Paraclet (Paris, 1946).
On the evolution of the meaning of psyche, see Werner Jaeger, The Theology of the Early Greek Philosophers (Oxford, 1947), esp. chap. 5.
Through Henri Bergson’s Deux sources de la morale et de la religion the symbolism of “openness” and “closure,” of l’âme ouverte and l’âme close, has become an effectively differentiated part of the philosophers’ language that will allow us to speak unequivocally of the existential states of remembrance and oblivion.
I recommend Maurice Merleau-Ponty’s Humanisme et Terreur (1947).
