Reihe: Textxet: Studies in Comparative Literature / Proceedings of the XVth Congress of the International Comparative Literature Association “Literature as Cultural Memory”

Divided into four sections: "Asian-Western Intersections," "Intercultural Memory," "Intercultural Perspectives on Women," "Genre Studies," and "The Intercultural Arts", these essays from diverse hands and multiple perspectives illuminate the intersections, the cross-sections, and the synergies that characterize significant literary texts and artistic productions. Individually, they exemplify the insights available in an intercultural perspective; together they remind us that no culture - even those that claim to be "pure" or those that might be regarded as isolated - has escaped the influence of external influences. As a result, this volume is doubly synergistic: one, because it focuses on intercultural phenomena within a specific culture, and two, because they represent multiple perspectives on these phenomena.
