Romanian literary studies in the 20th century was characterized by the subordination of comparative perspectives to the national literary historiography, the absence of a strong local methodological tradition, and the dominance of an essayistic and impressionistic brand of criticism. The study focuses on forms of institutionalization of comparative studies in postcommunist Romania (associations, research centers, journals, etc.) and the emergence of several comparative “schools” (particularly those in Timişoara, Cluj and Braşov). Keywords: comparative literature / Romania / Romanian literary criticism / post-communism / institutionalization / internationalization This study proposes a critical account of the current situation of comparative literature in Romania.1 Such an endeavor is justified on at least two levels. On the one hand, a systematic survey of the current situation of Romanian comparatism is absent from international bib- liography. Admittedly, at present, there are several very useful studies of the history of Romanian comparative literature. However, of these, many were published during the communist period (see, e.g., Dima and Papadima) and are no longer relevant nowadays because of their anach- ronism and the tendentious ideologization of their object. Furthermore, studies published over the past two decades are characterized by vari- ous deficiencies, such as the discontinuance of the investigation in the year 1990 (see, for instance, Cornea’s ‘La littérature’, which, otherwise, remains the most pertinent outline of a history of Romanian comparat- ism), the lack of a rigorous delineation of the study object (as is the case of surveys which also cover the work of Romanian-born comparatists 1 Primerjalna književnost (Ljubljana) 36.3 (2013) PKn, letnik 36, št. 3, Ljubljana, december 2013 who emigrated to the West) or a rather depthless approach to this topic (Ursa, ‘Comparative’). On the other hand, my survey is not merely informative; rather, it approaches Romanian comparative studies as a paradigmatic case from at least three points of view: firstly, as an instance of the tension between the national and the transnational, typical of the so-called (semi)peripheral liter- ary systems; secondly, as an expression of the methodological and informa- tional lag still besetting some East-Central European cultures which have not yet completely emerged out of post-communism; finally, as a test of the difficult adjustment that marks literary cultures whose critical tradition still remains largely attached to essayism rather than to academic research. The Institutional and Ideological Background of Romanian Comparative Studies In order to understand the current state of Romanian comparatism, it is useful to start with a historical outline of its institutional and ideological backgrounds. Thus, in terms of its professionalization, the pre-institutional- ized period must be distinguished from its disciplinization. The pre-institu- tionalized period, covering the span of one century (1846–1948), concerns the interval during which comparative literature was practiced in Romania without being established academically as a distinct discipline. The roots of this phenomenon can be traced back (approximately) to 1846, when the polymath Ion Heliade-Rădulescu launched the idea of an ambitious but utopian “Universal Library” which should make the grand oeuvres of clas- sical and modern literatures accessible to Romanian readers. Although the rate of translations into Romanian was fairly high throughout the 19th cen- tury, exegesis was slow to follow suit. In this respect, an important moment is marked by the 1882 study dedicated by Titu Maiorescu, the most impor- tant critic of the era, to the reception of the first translations of Romanian literary works into an international language (German). Maiorescu’s study attempts to integrate such works in the allegedly European fad of the “popular novel” (‘�����������iteratura������’). �nother significantsignifi cant moment is marked durdur-- ing the last decades of the 19th century by the activity of the Marxist critic C� Dobrogeanu-Gherea, who, influenced by Taine and Brandes, published many studies on translation policy and the succession of literary move- ments, and popularized in Romania a series of emerging literatures,

Prešeren, Polona 285088512 3 INTRODUCTION You simply have to love Slovenia, as it is the only country in the world with the word “love” in its name. This play on words denotes Slovenia in all its essence – a successful, creative, diverse and responsible country, despite the fact that it is one of the youngest countries on earth in terms of years of existence. In 1991, it declared its autonomy and independence and demonstrated that even young and small countries can become global players. It is hard to miss Slovenia in Europe with its strategic position in Central Europe – at the junction of the Alps, the Mediterranean, the mysterious Karst and the wide Pannonian plains. Within an area of 20,000 km2, we can admire its exceptional geographical diversity with rich natural and cultural traditions. It is precisely this mark of its position and natural conditions that have importantly denoted the character of Slovenians, while the turbulence of historically important transport routes has added vitality and inspired their creativity. You really have to love Slovenia. The feeling of affection for and belonging to Slovenia is indelible.

  • Zofka Kveder As a Cultural Transmitter1
    Katja Mihurko Poniž https://doi.org/10.18485/knjiz.2020.10.10.4 [email protected] UDC: 821.163.6.09 Кведер З. School of Humanities Original scientific article University of Nova Gorica Zofka Kveder as a Cultural Transmitter1 The article presents the forms and ways in which the cultural transmission of Zofka Kveder took place. It explains in which cultural spaces she worked and how she established personal contacts with artists. Zofka Kveder worked in a multidirectional way, as she promoted Slovene culture in the new cultural environments she moved into, and acquainted the Slovene cultural space with the achievements of foreign artists. She was also a mediator of ideas: feminism, Yugoslavism, and ideas about coexistence and mutual respect between different cultures. Zofka Kveder's translation oeuvre is very rich and almost unexplored so far, which opens up possibilities for new research. Keywords: Zofka Kveder, cultural transmission, feminism, cultural transfer, multiculturalism Introduction Zofka Kveder (1878–1926) was an enthusiastic researcher of new geographical and cultural spaces from a young age. As a twenty-year-old girl, she went to study in Switzerland, dependent only on her savings. Later, in the spring of 1900, she settled for six years in Prague, which was then a centre for young students from the Slavic south. The contacts she made in the Czech capital benefited her in the Croatian cultural space when she moved to Zagreb in 1906.2 Her desire to discover new worlds and establish contacts with representatives of foreign cultures was a trigger for many activities in the field of cultural transmission.

  • Writers in Between Languages
    5 Minority Literatures in the Global Scene Writers In Between Languages: This book is a collection of the contributions made by Basque Writers In Between Languages: writers and American and European academics to the internatio- nal symposium, “Writers in Between Languages: Minority Lite- ratures in the Global Scene,” held May 15–17, 2008 at the Center Minority Literatures in the Global Scene for Basque Studies, University of Nevada, Reno, in the United States. Our symposium attempted to think about the consequen- ces of bilingualism for writ ers in a minority language, like Basque, EDITED BY in that they are located in that “in-between” of different cultural Mari Jose Olaziregi and identity communities and subjected to constant exchange and recognition of differences. One could say that practically all the current 800,000 Basque-speakers or euskaldunak who live on both sides of the Pyrenees in Spain and France are bilingual. And that this bilingualism is formed in conjunction with such widely spoken languages as Spanish and such prestigious languages in literary circles as French; lan guages that, in turn, have been displaced by the enormously central and legitimizing place that English occupies in the current global framework. The sympo- sium attempted, moreover, to debate the consequences implied by linguistic extra-territorialization for many authors in a minority language, the realignment implied by the hegemony of Eng lish for E all other literatures, and the options open to a minority author to DIT E get their voice heard in the World Republic of Letters. Together D BY with the above themes, certain aspects of the academic study of a minority literature such as that of Basque completed the list of Mari Jose subjects we intended to examine.
