Anyone able to link me to some good reading material on compilers, interpreters, emulation and CPU design?

Keen to actually get some of this knowledge under my belt, don't mind if it requires a little investment as long as it isn't written in (fucking) python, preferably C if anyone knows of anything.

Thanks guys! :-D

question

emulation

compiler

interpreter

cpu

    CPU design: Computer Organization and Design by Patterson and Hennessy for the higher level look

    Digital logic by Stephen Brown (either the Verilog or VHDL version) for a lower level view of digital circuits and hardware description languages.

    Build Your Own Lisp is really approachable and great for understanding how to write a grammar and parse it properly.

    Wikipedia says that Knuth wrote some books next to his TAOCP series. They contain a complete set of information for a computer architecture etc. This system should be able to run TeX. (This is what wikipedia says, I have not read any of his books except for the TeXbook and metafont)
