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. 410 0$aCultura ludens.$pImitation and play in western culture ;$v4. 606 $aCanon (Literature) 606 $aPopular literature$zEnglish-speaking countries$xHistory and criticism$xTheory, etc 606 $aPopular literature$zFrance$xHistory and criticism$xTheory, etc 606 $aAmerican literature$xHistory and criticism$xTheory, etc 606 $aEnglish literature$xHistory and criticism$xTheory, etc 606 $aFrench literature$xHistory and criticism$xTheory, etc 615 0$aCanon (Literature) 615 0$aPopular literature$xHistory and criticism$xTheory, etc. 615 0$aPopular literature$xHistory and criticism$xTheory, etc. 615 0$aAmerican literature$xHistory and criticism$xTheory, etc. 615 0$aEnglish literature$xHistory and criticism$xTheory, etc. 615 0$aFrench literature$xHistory and criticism$xTheory, etc. 676 $a809 701 $aNemoianu$b Virgil$0911245 701 $aRoyal$b Robert$f1949-$01500891 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910789883403321 996 $aThe hospitable canon$93845715 997 $aUNINA
