Take a position in the debate over the literary canon and support it. your answer should be at least one hundred words.

The Western literary canon is the body of works of art (literature, music, philosophy, etc.) that are considered to be classics. These books are valued for being influential to culture, civilization and development throughout history.

The canon is subject to ample debate. I believe that considering certain books as canon can have a negative influence in the artistic world. First, it causes people to only focus on particular works of art, even in cases where other books might be of equal quality or influence. Second, canons should change with time. For example, in the past, it was virtually impossible to be part of the canon if you were a woman or a minority. Although this is changing nowadays, glorifying the canon does not help. Finally, artistic canons can sometimes give too much importance to works of the past and neglect significant contributions of the present.
