Comparative English Literature, beginning with a wide-ranging discussion of the theoretical dimensions of the comparative study of literature, its limits and prospects, includes a host of in-depth scholarly articles incorporating inter-genre, inter-authorial, and inter-textual studies from the perspective of comparative studies which constitute an innovative strategy to access recesses of texts hitherto unexplored. The perspective here is taken from other texts, facilitating a fuller appreciation of the texts involved and the artistic intent of the authors. The authors/texts covered in this anthology include Shakespeare and Kalidas; Wordsworth and Yeats; T.S. Eliot and The Gita; John Steinbeck and The Bible; Harold Pinter and Samuel Beckett, Sylvia Fraser, Susanna Moodie, and Yasmine Gooneratne; Margaret Atwood and Gita Mehta; Margaret Laurence and Bharati Mukherjee; Jawaharlal Nehru and Nirad C. Chaudhary; and Shobha De and Balwant Gargi. Also, it includes intra-authorial studies of the poems of Tagore and the novels of Santha Rama Rau and an inter-genre appraisal of fiction and film. It gives an invaluable exposure to the theory as well as practice of Comparative Study of English Literature.
