The Journey of the Literary Canon
YAKIMOVA, Vera Hristova
The PhD thesis The Journey of the Literary Canon surveys the issues of canonicity and canon formation in a foreign context. The text presents the prevailing thinking about canons in general, using five concepts: the ?classic?, tradition, aesthetic value, representation and cultural capital. The thesis then seeks to incorporate other fields of literary study that can contribute to the subject of canon formation, specifically in a foreign context, such as comparative literature and translation theory. The notion of world literature, and problems such as equivalence in translation, are addressed from a canonical perspective. At the end of the second chapter, a strategy for studying the formation of literary canons in a foreign context is outlined. The last chapter endeavours to implement the theories presented in the first two chapters, using as its raw material Czech literature in Bulgaria after World War II. The study presents aspects of translation strategy, analyses anthologies as a canonical genre, and outlines the journey that Hašek?s The Good Soldier Švejk underwent in becoming part of the Bulgarian canon of Czech literature.
