Aceste cinci eseuri pot constitui un (incomplet) tratat de literatur? comparat? care are ?n vedere ca termen de referin?? deschiderile teoretice diversificate din ultimul deceniu al secolului trecut ?i ?nceputul noului secol. Caracterul fluid al no?iunii face din comparatism o mitologie plural? at?ta vreme c?t lipse?te o teorie general unificatoare. Imposibilitatea de a-i legitima pe deplin obiectul, indeterminat ?i imprecis, l-a f?cut pe Charles Bernheimer s? defineasc? literatura comparat? drept o ??tiin?? anxiogenic?“. Este literatura comparat? o disciplin? autonom? sau, dimpotriv?, una anexat? studiilor culturale care nu dispun de o justificare teoretic?? Direct sau indirect, cartea lui Vasile Voia, profesor la Facultatea de Litere a Universit??ii Babe?-Bolyai, a luat forma unui discurs polemic. Comparatismul modern maximalist, renun??nd la rigorile anacronice ale comparatismului francez, p?n? la a uita de text ca obiect estetic, a devenit domeniul predilect al tuturor diletantismelor ?i formelor estetice ?n care dispare orice rigoare. Vasile Voia se situeaz? principial de partea pozi?iei ferme exprimate de Adrian Marino, ?n descenden?a lui René Wellek ?i René Etiemble, a profesorilor de la Yale, Harold Bloom ?i Peter Brooks, care au militat pentru men?inerea canonului tradi?ional occidental ?i a esteticului ca valoare primordial? a operei literare.
