Description
"Tradition is not only a handling-down or process of benign transmission; it is also a conflict between past genius and present aspiration, in which the prize is literary survival or canonical inclusion. [...] Poems, stories, novels, plays come into being as a response to prior poems, stories, novels, and plays, and that response depends on acts of reading and interpretation by the later writers [.]" Harold Bloom (1995: 9). "A comparison of old and new readings will shed light on the change in the institution of literature" Jonathan Culler (1975: 123).
