| Abstract | "This is the first volume to consistently examine Soviet engagement with world literature from multiple institutional and disciplinary perspectives: intellectual history, literary history and theory, comparative literature, translation studies, diaspora studies. Our emphasis is on the lessons one could learn from the Soviet attention to world literature; as such, we hope that the present volume would make a significant contribution to current debates on world literature beyond the field of Slavic and East European Studies and would foreground the need to think of world literature pluralistically, in a manner that is not restricted by the agendas of Anglophone academe"-- Provided by publisher. |
