Recent developments in Comparative Literature in Britain
Abstract
This paper examines the development of Comparative Literature as an academic discipline in Britain since the 1970s, emphasising on the shifts occurred partly because of sociocultural reasons and partly because of significant alterations in comparative mentality. It tries to demonstrate how the political and financial pressure as well as the multicultural environment in Britain led to a revision of the conception of literature and culture that changed the comparative field.
