The event was organised by the Faculty’s Department of Romanian Literature, Hungarian Literature and the Department of Comparative Literature, with the support of the “Sextil Pușcariu” Institute of Linguistics and Literary History, the Cluj-Napoca branch of the Romanian Academy, as well as the universities belonging to the Universitaria Consortium. The congress aimed at opening a debate platform on the historicity of the literary sphere, a space which would allow literary studies to connect to other fields regarding the historical nature of social realities (history, anthropology, sociology etc), as well as to investigate them in the broader context of regional literary cultures. The most heated debates following the congress focused on the relationship between the nation and literary history, especially because – against a backdrop of accelerating Globalization and the ever-diversifying theories and methodologies within World Literature – both concepts underwent significant mutations during recent decades. In the critical discourse of the field’s most reputed researchers, the vantage point on the “nation” has shifted from a tendency towards studying it within strictly defined geographical boundaries (and implicitly within ethnic and racial categories) to the concession of isolating networks of transcultural phenomena, territorial crossings or multilingual interferences. As a consequence, literary histories themselves could no longer be shaped after the ethnocentric model of “epical synthesis” fuelled by 19th century values and worldviews. Historiographical approaches aimed at establishing national narratives about canonical authors, about referential historical data, about the most representative literary movements or – in the case of so-called “semi-peripheric” cultures – about the intersections and synchronisations with “great” and “central” cultures have been replaced by theoretical standpoints built upon debating cultural confluences, intersections and hybridizations, precisely those phenomena that eschew inquiry within the confines of a single ethnic space. Since the early 2000s, the reconfiguration of literary history beyond the nation has not only generated intense debate, but has also prompted far-reaching research projects, of which transnational literary histories with regional focus (addressing Latin America, the Iberic Peninsula and Central and Eastern Europe, respectively) have proven the most prolific. At the same time, the national literary systems’ presumed homogeneity has been dismantled during recent years by the Bloomsbury Academic series DACOROMANIA LITTERARIA, VI, 2019, pp. 5–7 6 LITERARY HISTORY BEYOND THE NATIONAL FRAME Literatures as World Literatures, coordinated by Thomas O. Beebee. This collection, which has hosted extensive studies on world literatures (German, Brazilian, Danish, Dutch, Romanian and American, among others), has not only led to new variations in the field of comparative literature, but also to viable approaches to contemporary literary history. Among the major aims of these studies were the rehabilitation of a broad array of phenomena, directions and literary instruments previously neglected or downright rejected by literary historiography: literatures written by ethnic minorities, by exiled or diasporic authors, literatures preceding the nation-state in its current understanding, literatures that refuse any sort of national classification, circuits of translation and export, the profoundly heterogenous phenomena of global literature, etc. The contributions selected for this special issue of Dacoromania litteraria share the theoretical premises previously mentioned and have been organized in 3 separate sections. The first one, Alternative scenarios to national literary histories, comprises, on the one hand, reflections on transnational literary networks and dissemination paths, and on the other, theoretical inquiries into the methodologies and concepts that allow for a decisive detachment from the rigid formulas of traditional literary history. In the opening article, Imre József
