Abstract

Comparative Literature examines the aspects of convergence among the literatures in their different languages and many images of their links in the present or past, and impacts of these historical links and their manifestation, whether they are related to the general artistic assets of the literary genres or literary schools or intellectual currents or to the nature of the topics, attitudes and peoples that are treated and simulated in the literature or they belong to the issues of the technical drafting and partial ideas in the literary work or belong to the different images of the country reflected in the literature of the other nations, as the technical connections that link the peoples and nations on the basis of humanitarian relations that vary depending on the images and the writers. On the base of the definition of comparative literature it was better to be called (Comparative History of Literature) or (History of Comparative Literature), but it became famous by the label of (Comparative Literature), which is a designation lacks its significance, but the summarized label was easy so it deceived on every other label. In this article we will try to mention some fundamental and contemporary trends in Comparative Literature.
