%0 Journal Article %T Comparative literature and Cultural studies: perspectives and intersections via multiculturalism %A Gonz¨¢lez %A Atenea Isabel %J 452o F : Revista de Teor¨ªa de la Literatura y Literatura Comparada %D 2010 %I Asociaci¨®n 452?F %X This paper proposes a series of reflections on comparative literature and its relationship with cultural studies, with particular emphasis on literature¡¯s place in this relationship. It addresses the importance of interdisciplinarity and multiculturalism to re-evaluate the perspectives or tools used to address both literary analysis and cultural practices in general. It also reflects on socio-historical concern and commitment to achieve a productive approach. Via a general consideration of the aims of contextualising and the relationships and complementation between discourses, it provides a contrasting dialogue between different positions. %K Comparative literature %K Multiculturalism %K Interdisciplinarity %K Cultural studies %K Culture %U http://452f.com/images/pdf/numero03/gonzalez/03_452f_mono_gonzalez_es.pdf
