Obtížná balanc

Author: Petr Onufer

7,20 €

A literary canon can be a working tool that invites reconsideration of its own boundaries. Petr Onufer examines how Anglophone literature takes its place within the Czech context, treating literary criticism as an equal part of literary creation.

The discussion connects theoretical questions with the author's experience as a translator. It is intended for readers of English studies, American prose and poetry, and the history of literary reception.

What is Obtížná balanc about?

The individual sections address the premises of the canon, literary criticism, and American prose and poetry. The author explores how works become canonical and how they transform the canon in the process.

He connects insights from translation with textual interpretation. Criticism has literary value in its own right here, while the canon remains open to revision.
