[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't think Little Women is actually a literary classic. I think it's just populist American fiction. And I think it is sentimental and schlocky. There are no hallmarks of a classic text about it at all. Sorry. Who is studying this text at college? No one. [/quote] . We aren’t beholden to what old, dead white guys said were classics. Another reader can say Little Women is classic for them and you don’t have to agree. Carry on. [/quote] What are your standards for classics? [/quote] They aren't my personal standards, but given expectations generally - this wiki page covers it pretty well https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Classic_book[/quote]
