The presented book concerns the problems of literary theory and comparative literature discussed in the context of the so called globalization processes. In case of literature, the basis issue is the method of description of these processes in literary texts: the impact of globalization on the construction of the depicted world, the narrative prospect and the philosophical networks of characters. On the other hand, in the area of literary reflection, the issues of globalization refer to issues related to the theory of interpretation: the impact of globalization on the perception of meaning in the text and on the perspective of the interpreter. He or she does not remain cognitively independent of his position within the global network of cultural, social, political, and institutional dependences. As far as literary culture is concerned, in this book its concept refers to any doubts that are connected with statements about specific cultural identity of a literary text in the era of globalization.
