THE LITERATURE OF GLOBALIZATION OR THE GLOBALIZATION OF LITERATURE

The influence of contemporary globalization processes forces us to re-examine the positions of all cultural products. Literature, along with literary theory and comparative literature, is no exception to this. The article aims to predict the story about literature that will be told as a result both of a new type of dominance couched in the English language and unforeseeable yet immense reception possibilities thanks to digital media. Methodological issues that have become more apparent in the last decades are a sign of change in terms of literature perception. Along these lines the emergence of postnational, postcolonial, and inter/transcultural approaches to the analysis of literature will be considered, as these take identity to be a non-fixed category and almost exclusively an alternative and/or a hybrid structure.
