Abstract

This paper raises the issue of borders and limits as it pertains to the discipline of comparative literature itself. Can the limits/ borders of comparative literature be said to be co-extensive with the world? Is comparative literature consequently to be identified, geographically speaking, with world-literature? Or are the limits/ borders of comparative to be identified with Europe? And is comparative literature, then, to be equated with European literature?
