- More about The World-Literary System and the Atlantic
The World-Literary System and the Atlantic explores how American studies and the Atlantic region engage with new considerations of literary comparativism, international literary space, and the world-literary system, using the theory of combined and uneven development. The essays cover a range of topics, including periodization, racism, singular modernity, critical irrealism, commodity frontiers, semi-peripherality, and world-ecology.

The World-Literary System and the Atlantic delve into profound inquiries concerning the ways in which American studies, and the Atlantic region in general, engage with emerging perspectives on literary comparativism, international literary space, and the world-literary system. This edited collection amplifies these discussions by establishing a dialogue with the theory of combined and uneven development, a rich and enduring theory rooted in Marxist sociology and political economy, which continues to ignite lively debates across various social sciences. However, its implications for culture have garnered less attention. By drawing upon the comparative modes, concepts, and methods emerging in the field of new world-literary studies, the essays in this collection explore a wide array of topics, including the periodization of world literature, racism and the world-system, singular modernity, critical irrealism, commodity frontiers, semi-peripherality, and world-ecology.
The chapters in this book were originally published in the esteemed journal, Atlantic Studies.
