Resumen
Even though anthologies are an inherent part of literary history, to date there is not a systematised study of their structural principles. Yet anthologies usually are accompanied by prefaces written by the editor where the rationale is justified. Thus, the prefaces of some of the most relevant anthologies of the 20th and 21st centuries, such as the three editions of The Oxford Book of English Verse or The Norton Anthology of Poetry, have been analysed to inductively extract the main constituting elements of anthologies. These are the language in which poems are written, the literary tradition and national boundaries taken into account, the genre of the poems, the historical or authorial chronological order, the aim, function, and anthology of translations El gran vent i les heures differs from the analysed anthologies in that, according to the Catalan anthologist, it does not try to choose a representative sample of a tradition; it is a personal anthology that does not aim at being systematic (Manent, El gran vent 12; emphasis added). Nonetheless, a detailed study of the anthology leads to the opposite conclusion that it is indeed a systematic anthology imagery which synthesises the ideas of the previous critics, El gran vent is said to be actually systematic and organised according to four archetypal categories, namely nature as Eden, death as the great equaliser, love as unity, and war as conflict, and a fifth category of poems s argument that El gran vent might be translator, poet, critic, and anthologist
