From there, the reader is launched into the elegy proper—a true jeremiad on the loss of canonical standards. As Bloom insists, the purpose of the canon is, quite simply, to preserve certain works for teaching. Because there is only so much life and only so much time, because all that has been written can’t be read, there has to be at least some mechanism for selecting and bequeathing the products of any particular tradition. “Nothing is so essential to the Western Canon as its principles of selectivity, which are elitist only to the extent that they are founded upon severely artistic criteria,” he writes. And what are those criteria? Again, Bloom is most interested in those writers who continue to influence other writers. It is the artists themselves, he argues, who determine the canon. Writers continue to be inspired by other writers, so the old influences stick around.
