Publisher Description:
This book investigates the emergence of the cosmopolitan idea of literature and its impact on the democratic reconfiguration of the European and non-European cultural and political spaces. The birthplace of this idea is the traumatic experience of its designers among whom Voltaire, Kant, Herder, the Schlegel brothers and Goethe, resp. Russian Formalists, Bakhtin, Levinas, Blanchot, Derrida, Deleuze, Luhmann and Rancière are closely investigated.
