The Role of the Literary Canon in the Teaching of Literature

Beschreibung

This book investigates the role of the literary canon in the teaching of literature. Drawing on theoretical, historical, and empirical studies, it explores processes of canon formation that emerged long before the teaching of literature became a discipline but continue to inform this teaching in the 21st century.
