World Arts Series | What is a World? A Roundtable on World Literature

Is the world of “World Literature” the same as that in “world cinema” or “world music”? Is the world a temporal category as much as a geographical one? How do terms such a global, city, geopolitics, international, world systems, the planetary, or pluriverse relate to the category of world in relation to the arts? And how do we think about the world in translation? The John Hope Franklin Humanities Institute invited Duke University faculty for a roundtable discussion around the question: “What is a World?” This conversation on World Literature is part of our theme series, World Arts. The World Arts series explores the world-making potential of the arts and the ways in which worlds are imagined within them.
