Isnt that kinda saying what is the non-pizza culinary canon? thats the canon of not-something, so it doesnt really work out. You could maybe say the arab canon, or the CHinese canon though.

It seems to leave out plenty of prominent modern third-world writers, though for a list like that it's probably unavoidable.

> The production of Sanskrit literature extended from about 1500 BCE to about 1000 CE (note by me: it extends much longer) and reached its height of development in the 1st to 7th centuries CE. In addition to sacred and philosophical writings, such genres as erotic and devotional lyrics, court poetry, plays, and narrative folktales emerged.
