AB A bellwether textbook, The Norton Anthology of Modern (and Contemporary) Poetry formsan intriguing case study when its several editions are compared, since NAM(C)P’s thirty-year history (1973-2003) spans a period of extensive change in the literary canon. Key datainclude both statistical “hard figures” and “soft figures,” the changing shapes of inclusionand reception. Broadly considered, NAM(C)P typifies two “glacial” patterns of antholo-gies: continual expansion paired with cyclical reselection. Comparison of internal evidenceand contemporary reviews reveals how NAM(C)P provisionally solves the problem of “cov-erage” in canonizing contemporary literature, now in the context of the current identity-based theoretical paradigm. Predictions for future editions are also hazarded.
