Rapport de la Réunion des représentants des societés comparatistes européennes à l'initiative de la SFLGC à Paris le 6 octobre 2001
La journée comparatiste européenne, organisee par Danièle Chauvin et Bertrand Westphal, s'est tenue dans la salle des actes de Paris-N pendant toute la journée du 6 octobre 2001.
Rethinking Central Europe comparatively means crossing various topologies built up by the human 'pathos' of identities and history's destroying or recreating collectivities. Of course, this comparative approach necessarily implies a dialectic process in which local and global, as well as the interaction between the two, must be considered. Inevitably broader issues arise, such as the notion of 'Weltliteratur'. The following article considers the problems inherent in such an endeavor, especially for a region as difficult to define as Central Europe.
