While the very existence of global literary studies as an
institutionalised field is not yet fully established, the global
turn in various disciplines in the humanities and the social
sciences has been gaining traction in recent years. This book aims
to contribute to the field of global literary studies with a more
inclusive and decentralising approach. Specifically, it responds to
a double demand: the need for expanding openness to other ways of
seeing the global literary space by including multiple literary and
cultural traditions and other interdisciplinary perspectives in the
discussion, and the need for conceptual models and different case
studies that will help develop a global approach in four key
avenues of research: global translation flows and translation
policies, the post-1989 novel as a global form, global literary
environments, and a global perspective on film and cinema history.
Gathering contributions from international scholars with expertise
in various areas of research, the volume is structured around five
target concepts: space, scale, time, connectivity, and agency. We
also take gender and LGBTQ+ perspectives, as well as a digital
approach.
