| Sumario: | The domination of single subjects in academic programmes and institutions has recently been called into question. Literary studies are currently opening themselves up to the epistemological renewal that other fields can offer. They are increasingly borrowing theoretical tools from other subjects in order to analyse the historical, socio-political and institutional conditions of the production of literary texts, to identify the general discursive circumstances in which they emerge, and to study the relationship between literature and other media. Similarly, while subjects such as sociology, history, and political science have always been closely related - if not literally spinoffs from one another, as in the case of sociology vis-à-vis anthropology - what becomes of their specificities when they borrow from geography to address space-related issues, from psychology to understand social actors' individual motivations, or from literary studies to make sense of individual or collective narratives?-- |
