Conservative. (APEX :)
A literary canon that prioritizes time-honored classics of European and American literature while marginalizing newer works by minority and women writers may be described as Eurocentric and patriarchal. Such canons often reinforce prevailing power structures and overlook diverse perspectives and voices.
