The Western canon is a canon of books, music and art (and specifically one with very loose boundaries) that is thought by many to have been highly influential in shaping Western culture. It is a list of greatest works with significant literary and artistic merit. The selection of a canon is important to the theory of educational perennialism and the development of high culture.
Examples of canonical lists include:
