Who is the most /lit/ monarch?
I would say Ashurbanipal, who conquered things just so he could have their stories written down.

Oral poetry and story telling of the preliterate world is not literature. Most of it was not written down to become literature in fact.
Now go watch some literature on your tv, doofus.

Alfred the Great wrote a few books, and actually translated some Psalms from Greek to English.

Hans Adam II, Prince of Liechtenstein, also wrote a book. He's still alive. He's actually written a lot, but most of it isn't really /lit/erature.

Every time I have seen this gif used it has been by someone who is obviously in the wrong and I suspect it's the same person.
