Course Description
At the crossroads of new academic trends and exciting critical debates in research areas such as Postcolonial Studies, World Literature or Translation Studies, this team-taught course introduces students to the theory and practice of Comparative Literature in its 21st-century context. We compare seminal works originally published in English, Italian, French, German, Russian and Japanese, via a series of key transversal themes. All texts studied are available in English translation.
