Arabic Comparative Literature  

The Research Committee on Arabic Comparative Literature aims to facilitate dialogue between Arab and international researchers via the identification and introduction of Arabic contribution to and achievement in the field of comparative literature.

Within the inter-meshing frameworks of comparative literature and moving identities studies, the committee aspires to promote the study of Arab diaspora writers, notably expatriates, exiles and the displaced, whose literary production enriches both the Arab tradition and the traditions of the countries to which they emigrated and settled for various reasons. This promising comparative project will provide a space for a viable encounter between Arabic and international practices of comparative literature, both in the East and in the West.
