参考答案:What does "classics" mean In ancient times, "classics" referred to first- rate poets, and this word had evolved etymologically from the word "class". What ancient people referred to with "classics" was what we describe as "top class" today. In modern times, however, it referred to the writers or works that could serve as models, therefore the Greek and Roman literature was called "classics". Today when we use this word, we mean both "ancient works" and “model pieces". But since the Renaissance, the so- called classic spirit and the classic works incorporate content and connotations far more comprehensive and concrete than the original.
