literary anthology

A literary anthology is a carefully curated collection of written works, such as poems, short stories, essays, or excerpts, compiled into a single volume. It aims to showcase a variety of authors, styles, themes, or time periods, providing readers with a broad overview of literature within a specific genre, region, or topic. Anthologies are often used for educational purposes, literary appreciation, or exploring diverse voices, serving as accessible gateways to understanding the richness and range of literary expression.
