why does Dante look like Haigen?

I mean how should I know, honestly? But as far as "the greatest as far as my knowledge goes:"

Dostoevsky

Thomas Aquinas

No idea. My favorite is probably Gerard Manley Hopkins.

Jorge Luis Borges as writer

This might be the only real answer in this thread so far

You'd get more responses if it was favorite. anyway.

Wew he found a word to label it and thinks it's an argument. Then again he thinks Hobbes is a great philosopher is Chaucer is more than a meme-tier national poet, so why bother with the imbecile.

Dostoevsky, Plato, Homer

Speak for yourself

No. My favorite writer is Thomas Wolfe (Look Howeward, Angel) and my favorite poet is Robert Frost. I know that they're not the greatest of all time. The greatest authors are guys like Cervantes, Dostoeyevsky, Melville. Greatest poets are Milton, Dante, Baudelaire. Guys like that. Philosophers are Plato and Nietzche. Somebody in the thread mentioned Chateaubriand, who I love and hold up as a great French Romantic, but he's minor compared to guys like Hugo and Walter Scott. But I like Chateaubriand more personally. It's a weird thread and the answers are predictable, unless you're referring to favorites, with a good reason.

Notice how no one ever says this to someone who agrees with them

What a sad and pathetic cop-out. Be a man and defend yourself and your positions.

a bold claim

>Plato, the failed dramatist
>best writer and poet

Heh

Dostoevsky's style is simple and contrived. His language choice is terse and homely. Hardly qualifications of the greatest writer.
