Minden nemzeti irodalom valójában transznacionális. Beszélgetés a TRANSHIROL projektről
All National Literatures Are in Fact Transnational: a Discussion about the TRANSHIROL Project

Summary/Abstract: After publishing widely on the possibilities of transgressing methodological nationalism in the field of literary history, most notably in the volume Romanian Literature as World Literature (2018), edited with Christian Moraru and Mircea Martin, Andrei Terian is currently working on a collective ERC research project that he initiated in order to write a Transnational History of Romanian Literature (TRANSHIROL). In a dialogue with Imre József Balázs, Terian addresses the most important issues that such projects involve: the main objectives of writing a transnational literary history, the theoretical background and the previous works of Romanian studies that created the foundations of a transnational approach. The inclusion of previously marginalized literary phenomena like pop culture, minority literatures, translations etc. will create new contexts for discussing the canonical works of Romanian literature, world literature studies offering concrete methodologies to achieve the goals of the project.
