The provided text is a research article from the Rupkatha Journal, titled "Towards a Problematic Canon: Indian Poetry Anthologies and the Construction of Modernism" by Benjamin Karam. This academic paper explores how anthologies have shaped the understanding of modern Indian poetry in English, arguing that a canon is formed through a complex interplay of textual content, paratextual elements (like introductions), production and circulation of these anthologies as commodities, and their subsequent consolidation through critical reception and academic adoption. The author examines how "anthology wars" and the influence of major publishers like Oxford University Press have significantly contributed to establishing the dominant narrative of modernism in Indian English poetry.
