Canons are seen by most of the contributors as based on democratic and communal intentions or choices inevitable filtered through and colored by historical experiences and social biases. An examination of the canonical process over many centuries reveals both the impressive durability of its elements and the amazing flexibility of its outlines.Cultura ludens.Imitation and play in western culture ;4.Canon (Literature)Popular literatureEnglish-speaking countriesHistory and criticismTheory, etcPopular literatureFranceHistory and criticismTheory, etcAmerican literatureHistory and criticismTheory, etcEnglish literatureHistory and criticismTheory, etcFrench literatureHistory and criticismTheory, etcCanon (Literature)Popular literatureHistory and criticismTheory, etc.Popular literatureHistory and criticismTheory, etc.American literatureHistory and criticismTheory, etc.English literatureHistory and criticismTheory, etc.French literatureHistory and criticismTheory, etc.809Nemoianu Virgil911245Royal Robert1949-1613613MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910811234003321The hospitable canon3943005UNINA
