Recenti modelli di transnazionalismo nella cultura e letteratura contemporanee dal punto di vista comparatistico. (Italian)

The article proposes a reflection on the category of "transnationalism," of historical and sociological derivation, in order to grasp the opportunities of its use in the field of theory of literary comparatistics. In particular, some central themes of the history of the discipline, such as "world literature" and the "canon," are called into question, which in the light of the transnational dimension--not to be confused with the international one--open up to new declinations and to the changed literary landscapes of contemporaneity.

L'articolo propone una riflessione intorno alla categoria di "transnazionalismo", di derivazione storica e sociologica, al fine di coglierne le opportunità di impiego nel campo della teoria della comparatistica letteraria. In particolare, sono chiamati in causa alcuni temi centrali della storia della disciplina, quali la "letteratura mondiale" e il "canone", i quali alla luce della dimensione transnazionale - da non confondere con quella internazionale - si aprono a nuove declinazioni e ai mutati panorami letterari della contemporaneità.
