Katie & Hannah, 2 international BFF's with a deep love for all things literary & comparative. Join us for weekly discussions of various works of literature, spanning time and linguistic boundaries.
In which Hannah & Katie discuss Comparative Literature: what it is for us, what is is 'officially', how it's practised in different academic systems, and why we think it's an important method of literary analysis. (In which Hannah apologises for her terrible internet connexion). Resources: Brennan, T. (2018). Cosmopolitanism and World Literature. In B. Etherington & J.
