As We May Think (Bush),
Can Programming Be Liberated from the von Neumann Style (Backus)
And this seems to be a cool course: https://canvas.harvard.edu/courses/34992/assignments/syllabu...
> This course examines papers every computer scientist should have read, from the 1930s to the present. It is meant to be a synthesizing experience for advanced students in computer science: a way for them to see the field as a whole, not through a survey, but by reliving the experience of its creation. The idea is to create a unified view of the field of computer science, for students who already know something about it, by replaying its entire evolution at an accelerated frame rate.
