Martine Cuvillier-Hiers, Director

This interdisciplinary minor analyzes literature from different time periods, across national and linguistic boundaries and focuses on aspects of literature that a national approach might ignore or not be equipped to treat properly. Examining literature within an international context constitutes an important dimension to the study of literature.
