“A Rare Pearl Passed from Hand to Hand”

Michiel Leezenberg · 2020

Catalogue summary

The essay tests Casanova’s world-republic framework against Georgian, Kurdish, and Armenian vernacularization in Persianate cosmopolitan settings and the making of national epics.

Why this matters

Its transnational, premodern comparison adds historical depth to theories of literary fields and challenges a narrowly Western account of consecration.
