The Slavonic Literary Studies at the Crossroads: Redefining, or Preserving?
The Slavonic Literary Studies at the Crossroads: Redefining, or Preserving?

Summary/Abstract: The author of the present study tries to answer the question from the title about the contemporary state and the future of Slavonic literary studies in connection with other disciplines, e.g., comparative and genre studies, their crises and shifts of methodological emphases. According to the author, the future perspectives of Slavonic studies are associated with the relatively constant entity of the subject, the Slavonic phenomenon or the Slavonic world as marking or delimiting the boundaries of Slavonic studies as an independent or autonomous discipline, and with their open or semi-open character in the philological framework, dynamicborders and transcending towards the cultural-area concept without losing their philological kernel.
