Utopia, World Literature and Eastern Europe
We research contemporary Utopian imagination in Eastern Europe with a larger aim to deprovincialise literatures of this region by (a) mapping anew the existing geographies of comparison, (b) developing a world-systems theory of literary semi-peripheries, and (c) revising the current understanding of the novel as a globally-dominant genre.
