Survey of English Lit II: Journal 2 This week, you've been given insight into the function and debates surrounding the literary canon and, by default, the literature survey courses. I'd like you think critically about these pieces and consider prior English courses that you've had (high school, college) where you've read literature to respond to the following questions.  What are your thoughts on canonization and the survey of literature, after reading these critical articles and considering Rich's poem?  Much of this week explores a gap between inclusion and exclusion--what Rich calls the "wreck" and what Donadio and Underwood see as components of the canon wars and in periodization/maintaining boundaries. In the majority of your journal, question this gap and respond to the representations of diversity that you see in traditional anthology contents. See the links below for current anthology contents and reflect on the authors that are included--have we ended the "canon wars"? What work needs to continue being done?  Finally, offer any thoughts about our own COVE anthology--are there individuals or collaborators that you hope to see represented? Are there groups of people that you've heard about that you'd like to explore in our class? This is your chance to include your own voices in our class anthology.   Links to print anthologies with tables of contents: Norton Anthology: https://wwnorton.com/books/9780393603095/about-the-book/table-ofcontents Broadview Anthology: https://broadviewpress.com/product/the-broadview-anthology-of-britishliterature-concise-volume-b-third-edition/#tab-table-of-contents
