    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Contributors explore the fundamentals: the history and development of comparative literature as an academic discipline; the methodology of comparative literature and cross-cultural comparison; comparative poetics; the place of Chinese literature in the world and the relationship between Chinese literature and world literature; the role of translation in the intercultural reception of literary works; canon formation in world literature; comparative study of literary genres such as the lyric and the novel.
