Focusing on Slovenian literature, almost unknown to world literature studies, this book addresses world literature’s canonical function in the nineteenth-century process of establishing European letters as national literatures. Aware of their dependence on imperial powers, (semi)peripheral national movements sought international recognition through, among other things, the newly invented figure of the national poet. Writers central to dependent national communities were canonized to represent their respective cultures to the norm-giving Other – the emerging world literary canon and its aesthetic ideology. Hence, national literatures asserted their linguo-cultural individuality through the process of worlding; that is, by their positioning in the international literary world informed by the supposed universality of the aesthetic.Canon and World Literature,2662-7841Comparative literatureLiterature—TranslationsCulture—Study and teachingBalto-Slavic languagesComparative Literaturehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/811000Translation Studieshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/828000Regional and Cultural Studieshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/411000Slavic and Baltic Languageshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/N43000Comparative literature.Literature—Translations.Culture—Study and teaching.Balto-Slavic languages.Comparative Literature.Translation Studies.Regional and Cultural Studies.Slavic and Baltic Languages.809Juvan Markoauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut681923MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910484118303321Worlding a Peripheral Literature2855289UNINA
