Comparative literature contains fifteen scholarly papers on theory and practice of this body of literature in our time. It makes an attempt to analyse Eastern and Western poetics, theory of language, modernism and post-modernism on a comparative basis. Texts of individual authors and critics like R.K. Narayan and chinua Achebe, Kamala Das and Judith Wright, T.S. Eliot and Sri Aurobindo have been analysed with insight and precision. This book, as it were, makes an agenda of comparative literary studies in India for the new millennium. This is a well researched and invaluable book on comparative literature
