New book by Marko Juvan

Marko Juvan, Head of the institute of literature at ZRC SAZU, published a new book titled Worlding a Peripheral Literature. The book focuses on Slovenian literature to address world literature’s canonical function in the nineteenth-century process of establishing European letters as national literatures. Published by Palgrave Macmillan, the book is part of ‘Canon and World Literature’, a new book series edited by former ICLA President Zhang Longxi.
