Comparative Literature Studies publishes comparative articles in literature and culture, critical theory, and cultural and literary relations within and beyond the Western tradition. It brings you the work of eminent critics, scholars, theorists, and literary historians, whose essays range across the rich traditions of Africa, Asia, Europe, and the Americas. One of its regular issues every two years concerns East-West literary and cultural relations and is edited in conjunction with members of the College of International Relations at Nihon University. Each issue includes reviews of significant books by prominent comparatists. More information is available at www.cl-studies.psu.edu.


About the Editor:

His fields of specialization in research and graduate teaching are: European literature of the early modern period; criticism and theory; epistolarity; translation studies; and law and literature. His publications include the books Clarissa on the Continent, The Ideology of Genre, Epistolary Fiction in Europe, Geographies of Nation in Modern European and American Fiction, and Millennial Literatures of the New World, 1492-2002.
