Module description
This module will examine different acts of literary comparison — reception, translation, adaptation — to think about how texts have been received and re-articulated differently at different periods (from ancient to contemporary). You will consider reception, adaptation and translation as overlapping but distinct practices and examine how they intersect with wider contextual questions, such as the legacies of colonialism and imperialism, nationhood, canonicity, gender, the literary market and the environmental crisis.
