One of the most important things to remember is that ? classic ? does not ____________________ translate to ? favorite ? or ? bestselling ? . Literature is instead considered classic when it has stood the test of time ; and it stands the test of time when the artistic quality it expresses be it an expression of life , truth , beauty , or anything about the universal human condition continues to be relevant , and continues to inspire emotional responses , no matter the period in which the work was written . Indeed , classic ____________________ is considered as such ____________________ of book sales or public popularity . That said , classic literature usually ____________________ lasting recognition from critics and other people in a position to influence such decisions and has a universal ____________________ . And , while effective use of language as ____________________ as technical excellence is a must , not everything that is well - written or is characterized by technical achievement or critical ____________________ will automatically ____________________ considered a classic . Conversely , works that have not been acknowledged or received positively by the writer's contemporaries or critics ____________________ still be considered as classics .
