The bibliography from Joseph Csicsila’s Canons by Consensus: Critical Trends and American Literature Anthologies makes available the primary and scholarly sources Csicsila used to create the most important book-length study of American canon formation in anthologies. Other scholars have recently continued emphasizing the importance of anthologies. For example Kenton Rambsy’s Geographies of African American Short Fiction (2022) demonstrates how anthology editors helped to create the canon of a relatively small group of African American short story writers.
