Which books are classics?

Does anyone still read “The Classics”?
How in the world could certain individuals, even if they’re educated and wise, decide that certain books should be Classics?
If I pop up my WordWeb dictionary, “Classics” is defined as, “Study of the literary works of ancient Greece and Rome.”
But, using a term like “The Classics” and saying a certain book is a classic can be quite different things.
