Publisher's Synopsis
resents a topic: diseases, male gaze, children, intimate relations, antagonists or protagonists, human nature, war and depression, parenthood, death and suicide, God and religion, geography and human, revenge, and alienation. In each chapter, notable literary texts from different authors were analyzed to foreground the thematic and contextual similarities. This book, hence, provides readers different perspectives and interpretations to better internalize the common themes and messages of world classics. Although there are various studies of the remarkable senior academicians in the comparative literary field, hopefully, Literature: Lingua Franca of Cultures would contribute to this field both for the academicians and readers.
