Shake Up, not Shake-Down: Comparative Literature as a Twenty-First Century Discipline

"Ours is not a problem of relevance, as I’ve already argued, but of public perception and marketability. The long-term goal should be to increase the visibility of the discipline, and to make more publicly accessible the comparative scholarship that is crucial to solving the most pressing problems of the 21st century. But do not despair: we are well equipped for the challenge. Comparatists are already widely recognized for producing high-quality cutting-edge scholarship."
