When one thinks of the 'Classics' of art, one is compelled to include literature, music, art, and theater. Yet the 'classics' means different things to different people. What I think is 'classic' may not be what another will agree to. For this purpose I will try to keep this section devoted to the 'standard historical classic arts' and allow for any other such interest in my opinion to be presented elsewhere.
Literature is grand.
What even the eyes, ears, nose, mouth, and touch of our senses can't reach, literature can. It can reach the emotional senses of internal feelings of devotion, love, hate, despair, and such like feelings of man that goes beyond the five physical senses. While literature is not alone in doing this, it is remarkable in and of itself, in that it does it merely by the use of words. Such are the great masters of the written language. They are the gifted that can convey such feeling and sense of human existence that they reach into the souls of men and communicate with each of us by the mere rendering of their words.
