Not at all, Neo. I took the sector of literature because it happens to be one where I am knowledgeable. I was not trying to draw up a compendium of the century's greatest writers, but a short list (maximum 10-12) of the century's most influential writers, who in turn will have to compete with about 90 other people from other fields,to make it into the Top 100 Most Influential People of the century. Hence, there have to be some pretty rigorous criteria for qualifying, other than "greatness." (Watch that French spelling, incidentally: it's Anhouil. And in terms of influence, pretty far down the scale, IMO.)
