Литературният канон – изгубен и намерен в превода
The Literary Canon – Lost and Found in Translation

Summary/Abstract: The paper deals with the topic of canonicity and particularly canonicity in translation. In the first part of the text, the theory of Lawrence Venutti is introduced and analysed. In the second part, the author applies his theories to the works of Kiril Hristov (1875–1944), a Bulgarian poet and translator, who lived in Czechoslovakia and translated works of Czech authors to Bulgarian. His anthology The Mirrors of Vltava (1946) is in the centre of interest and shows not only how canonisation in translation succeeds, but also how it fails.
