The identity and relevance of literary studies require a conceptual and institutional reconstruction in response to the global reshaping and commodification of knowledge. The author thus proposes a theory of literary discourse and literary history that take into account literariness as an important socio-cultural phenomenon and revisits several critical concepts, such as world literature, literary text, genre, style, fiction, literary space, and cultural memory.
Marko Juvan works at the Research Center of the Slovenian Academy of Sciences and Arts and teaches literary theory at the University of Ljubljana. He is a member of the ICLA Committee on Literary Theory and the Executive Committee of the European Network for Comparative Literary Studies. His recent publications in English include Writing Literary History (co-editor, with Darko Dolinar, Peter Lang 2006) as well as a study about history and poetics of intertextuality in 2008.
