Worlding a Peripheral Literature by Marko Juvan
English | PDF,EPUB | 2019 | 295 Pages | ISBN : 9813294043 | 3.7 MB
Bringing together the analyses of the literary world-system, translation studies, and the research of European cultural nationalism, this book contests the view that texts can be attributed global importance irrespective of their origin, language, and position in the international book market. Focusing on Slovenian literature, almost unknown to world literature studies, this book addresses world literature's canonical function in the nineteenth-century process of establishing European letters as national literatures.
