Opening up Concepts and Models: Discussing the State of Transculturalism Studies

Summary/Abstract: Coordinating a long-term research project on transculturalism and bilingualism in Slovakia and Poland, Zoltán Németh discusses the opportunities opened up by a methodology based on transculturalism studies. With a special focus is on authors affiliated to Hungarian literatures, the author argues that such approaches are able to reframe discussions about Hungarian minority literatures and exile literatures, highlighting the possibility to include into the Hungarian literary canon works written in different languages. In a dialogue with Imre József Balázs, Németh clarifies the differences between transnationalism and transculturalism studies, the effect of such research projects on the history of Hungarian literature, the possibilities to combine network theory with transculturalism studies, and also individual authors whose works became increasingly relevant from a transculturalist perspective.
