Therefore, it was no surprise that it was considered one of the indispensable works in the history of world literature and was rated as one of the top ten masterpieces.

In addition, there were also works such as " The Sunny Town Record,"" The Collection of Oil Fictions," and " The Rich Man's Pastoral Calendar " that were also considered classics of humor literature in the world. However, the search results provided did not give a complete list of the world's top ten humorous masterpieces, so it was impossible to give an accurate answer.

There were many reasons why 'Dream of the Red Chamber' was not listed as one of the top ten masterpieces in the world. First of all,'Dream of the Red Chamber' was a classical Chinese novel, and the selection criteria for world famous works were mainly based on the western literary tradition, so 'Dream of the Red Chamber' did not meet the selection criteria. Secondly, the literary achievements of Dream of the Red Chamber were relatively low. Although it was a masterpiece in the history of Chinese literature, its influence in the field of world literature was limited. In addition, the writing style and plot of 'Dream of the Red Chamber' were also controversial. Some people thought that it lacked modern characteristics and could not resonate with modern readers. In the end, the criteria for selecting the world's famous works were constantly adjusted over time. Therefore,'Dream of the Red Chamber' might be reevaluated and included in the list in the future.

'The Top Ten Famous Books of the World' did not include Chinese literature because the criteria for the selection were different. Chinese literature played an important role in world literature, but it was not considered as a separate category in the selection. In addition, there was a big gap between the development level of Chinese literature and the literary level of other countries, so it was not included in the selection.

The world's top ten masterpieces referred to literary works that were widely circulated in various countries and had a profound impact on human culture, including the following ten: Dream of the Red Chamber-The Qing Dynasty was hailed as a classic in the history of Chinese novels. 2.
