ANTHOLOGIES AS LITERARY MUSEUMS

Sanjin Sorel ; Filozofski fakultet u Rijeci

Abstract

Anthologies of literature, and we will focus our interest
on anthologies of poetry, have as their aim
establishing values, establishing a hierarchy and
musealisation. The paper attempt to provide an
answer to the extent of the presence of ideological
elements in the anthology, elements that deÞ ne the
very nature of remembrance and the values of a
culture. By comparing various anthologies from
the past Þ fty years or so, I present the mentioned
changes that will not depend only on political
changes on maps but will to a comparable extent
be dependent on those that edit the anthologies.
Through the analysis of the function of anthologies
we see the elements that document society. In
this context museums will be a mirror of sorts, as
well as a place for exemplary presentation.
