Edited by Debashree Dattaray, Epsita Halder & Samantak Das This special volume of essays put together by Jadavpur University's Department of Comparative Literature explores a range of arguments contesting the ideological and artificial boundaries of literature and its interrelationships with the wider context of the arts. The essays engage with diverse subjects-Roman Jacobson to the Rāmāyaṇa, Munshi Premchand to Mainadal kirtan, Gond art to Gauriya Nritya, and more. Traversing carefully between affinities and disjunctures, scholars like Pinaki De, Chris Dorsett, Sagar Taranga and Trina Nileena Banerjee push towards borderlands and frontiers the paradigms of our existing disciplinary separatisms and syncretisms.
