New Title in Project Muse

THE COMPARATIST LAUNCHES IN PROJECT MUSE

***From the University of North Carolina Press:

The Comparatist

The Comparatist is a sponsored journal of the Southern Comparative Literature
Association. It has appeared in print annually since 1977 and is currently sponsored by
North Carolina State University. The Comparatist has traditionally published comparative
work involving literary and cultural movements, literature and the arts, relations
between European and non-European literatures, and inter-American literary exchanges.
More recently the journal has also focused on the third world, Afro-Caribbean, and
Central European literary phenomena. Each issue features eight to ten articles clustered
around major comparative-thematic topics, such as “Theoretical Dialogues,” “Post-
Colonial Perspectives,” “Comparative Poetics,” or “Eastern-Western
Relationships”. A substantial review section evaluates important theoretical and
practical concerns involving cross-cultural study. As a forum for literary comparatists,
the journal encourages a stimulating interplay or intertextual and comparative methods,
of theoretical-historical analysis, and of critical interpretation.
