In your opinion of course. No right answers. Just curious how others perceive the greats and why. Is it showing mastery over writing? Doing something completely new and original? Telling a supremely entertaining story that can override any flaws the writing might have? Does it need to resonate with a large group of people to be a classic?
Personally, a classic to me embodies the themes and philosophies of the time while remaining timeless for future generations so by that reasoning it takes time for something to become a classic. Maybe becoming a classic takes a bit of mythos as well?
Anyways what are your interpretations of classic?
