COMPARATIVE PRACTICES - LITERATURE LANGUAGE AND...

Comparisons not only prove fundamental in the epistemological foundation of modernity (Foucault
Luhmann)  but they fulfil a central function in social life and the production of art. Taking a
cue from the Practice Turn in sociology  the contributors are investigating the role of
comparative practices in the formation of eighteenth-century literature and culture. The book
conceives of social practices of comparing as being entrenched in networks of circulation of
bodies  artefacts  discourses  and ideas  and aims to investigate how such practices ordered
and changed British literature and culture during the long eighteenth century.
