The future of literary history: Three challenges in the 21st century

Galin Tihanov

Research output: Contribution to journal › Article › peer-review

Abstract

How literary history evolves will largely depend on the modifications of the wider framework in which its evolution takes place. Understanding these modifications seems to be an essential first step. In this paper I concentrate on three factors (the nation state; the media; the evolution of society under the pressures of changing demographics), and seek to elucidate and weigh their importance for literary history.
