Comparative literature

Comparative Literature is a type of study that compares different types of literature. Literature is anything that we read, which could be things like stories, novels, plays and even poetry. Comparative Literature studies these different types of literature from different countries, languages and cultures. For example, you might compare the literature of ancient Greece to the literature of modern-day England. Comparative Literature studies how these different types of literature are similar and how they are different. This helps us learn more about different cultures and how people from different backgrounds experience the world.
