Summary/Abstract: The keynote paper outlines the main approaches in Comparative Balkan Literary Studies. With a lower chronological boundary in the 18th and 19th centuries, the methodology of Comparative Balkan Literary Studies pertains both to the interactions between individual Balkan literatures and to their connections with other European phenomena. The “Intersection” between literatures, based on the metaphorical analogy with Set theory, as well as “Triangular comparisons”, are presented as approaches and grounds for making a comparison. The paper also traces the connection between today’s studies and the founders of Comparative Balkan Literary Studies in Bulgaria.
