Morphology
anthology = antho + logy
Although historically built from classical elements, the current meaning 'a published collection of writings' is not transparently recoverable from 'antho' + 'logy' for an average learner.
Etymology
The word anthology comes from the Greek root anthos, which means 'flower', and it originally meant a 'collection of flowers'. Think of an anthology as a 'bunch of flowers' made of poems or stories gathered together, which is why the word now means a collection of writings.
