Could you expand your statement, please?
Yes, rex yuan, though I agree with you, and I would probably add Dante Alighieri to your list (as he criticized both God and Satan also), but I would like to hear more correspondence on this topic. What really defines the proclaimed "real literature"? Does the criticism of divine beings contribute to labeling a work more literary than other literature?
