Their essays range across the rich traditions of Africa, Europe and the Americas, and examine the literary relations between East Asia and the West. They also explore movements, themes, forms, the history of ideas, relations between authors, and the foundations of criticism and theory. Each issue includes reviews of significant books by prominent scholars.
