  • CHAPTER 1 Introduction This Study of World Literature Begins Where Many
    CHAPTER 1 Introduction This study of world literature begins where many do: with Goethe, but then it will go backwards from Goethe before it goes forward. The term world literature itself derives from Goethe’s neologism Weltliteratur, recorded by his personal secretary Johann Peter Eckermann from a conversation one night over dinner: “National literature is now rather an unmeaning term; the epoch of World-literature is at hand, and everyone must strive to hasten its approach” (165). The newness of the term is evidenced in John Oxenford’s 1930 translation by the hyphenation that brings the compound concept over from German into English. World literature is now a commonplace in English, although what exactly it is remains a matter of debate, allowing for such titles as David Damrosch’s book in 2003: What Is World Literature? But what Goethe means by world literature or what “we” mean by world literature today is not entirely my concern here—at least not yet—and this is where I go backwards from his neologism. In Eckermann’s account, the conversation in which Goethe lets slip the word that will create a new field of study begins thus: “Within the last few days, since I saw you,” said he, “I have read many things; especially a Chinese novel, which occupies me still and seems to me very remarkable.” “Chinese novel!” said I; “that must look strange enough.” “Not so much as you might think,” said Goethe; “the Chinamen [sic] think, act, and feel almost exactly like us…” (164) 1 Goethe goes on to explain the similarities and differences he finds between the “us” he refers to and Chinese writing and culture it represents, drawing connections between the Chinese text he has read and his own Hermann and Dorothea as well as the novels of Richardson and the Chansons de Béranger.
