The concept of comparative literature in India received an impetus from Rabindranath Tagore's lecture delivered on the subject when he was invited by National Council of Education in 1907. But the idea of Comparative Literature suggested by Das, a practicing comparatist, is different from the idea expressed by Tagore.

Introduction: what is comparative literature Today ?JanviNakum
Abstract
There have been various definitions of comparative literature, which greatly varies from one scholar to another, but they all agree that it is one of the most modern literary sciences. Throughout the past two decades, new critical theories, such as gender-based criticism, translation studies, deconstruction and Orientalism, have changed approaches to literature and accordingly have had a profound impact on the work of the comparatists.
Sooner or later, anyone who claims to be working in comparative literature has to try and answer the inevitable question : What is it ? The simplest answer is that comparative literature involves the study of texts across cultures, that it is interdisciplinary and that it is concerned with patterns of connection in literature across both time and space.( Bassnett, p.1). "Everywhere there is connection, everywhere there is illustration," as Matthew Arnold puts it. According to Susan Bassnett, everybody who is interested in books is on the path to comparative literature.
Key Arguments
A comparative analysis you should have already read for different prominent writer for instance Chaucer, Shakespeare, Baudelaire, Poe, Joyce.
●Comparative Literature revolves around the study of literature outside the borders of one particular culture, the study of relations between literature on the one hand and other areas of human expression such as philosophy on the other hand. Critics have also related it to history as it examines the convergence (junction) of different literatures and its historical aspects of influence, considering that Comparative Literature is the essence of the history of literature, beyond the scope of one culture or language
●Another arguments is there west students of 1960 claimed that comparative literature could be put in single boundaries for comparative literature study, but she says that there is no particular method used for claiming.
●Critics at the end of the twentieth century, in the age of postmodernism, still wrestle with the same questions that were posed more than a century ago :
What is the object of the study in comparative literature?
How can comparison be the objective of anything?
If individual literatures have canon, what might a comparative canon be?
How can be comparatist select what to compare ?
Is comparative literature a discipline? Or is it simply a field of study ?
Introduction: What is comparative Literature Today ?
Susan Bassnett says that most of the people do not start with comparative literature but they end up with it in some way or other. Generally, we, first start reading the text and then we arrive at comparison. I mean to say, we start comparing that text with another that has similarities and dissimilarities. Comparative Literature emerged in 19th century. Comparative Literature is different from national literature, general literature and world literature. It was begun as “Literature Compare” in 1860 in Germany.
Postcoloniality of Indian Poetics A Critical Analysisijtsrd
Postcolonial literature is the literature by people from formerly colonized countries. It exists on all continents except Antarctica. Postcolonial literature often addresses the problems and consequences of the decolonization of a country, especially questions relating to the political and cultural independence of formerly subjugated people, and themes such as racialism and colonialism. A range of literary theory has evolved around the subject. It addresses the role of literature in perpetuating and challenging what postcolonial critic Edward Said refers to as cultural imperialism. Migrant literature and postcolonial literature show some considerable overlap. However, not all migration takes place in a colonial setting, and not all postcolonial literature deals with migration. A question of current debate is the extent to which postcolonial theory also speaks to migration literature in non colonial settings. One of the key issues is the superiority inferiority of Indian Writing in English IWE as opposed to the literary production in the various languages of India. Key polar concepts bandied in this context are superficial authentic, imitative creative, shallow deep, critical uncritical, elitist parochial and so on. The views of Salman Rushdie and Amit Chaudhuri expressed through their books The Vintage Book of Indian Writing and The Picador Book of Modern Indian Literature respectively essentialise this battle. Rushdies statement in his book – the ironic proposition that Indias best writing since independence may have been done in the language of the departed imperialists is simply too much for some folks to bear – created a lot of resentment among many writers, including writers in English. In his book, Amit Chaudhuri questions – Can it be true that Indian writing, that endlessly rich, complex and problematic entity, is to be represented by a handful of writers who write in English, who live in England or America and whom one might have met at a party.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Comparative Literature and Culture

2. Abstract:
In his article, "Comparative Literature in India," Amiya Dev bases his discussion on the fact
that India has many languages and literatures thus representing an a priori situation and
conditions of diversity. Following points are several ideas which is discussed in Dev's
article:
Speaking of Indian Literature in the singular is problematic/ in the plural is equally
Problematic.
His article compares the unity and the diversity thesis, and identifies the relationship
between Indian commonality and differences as the prime site of comparative literature in
India.
The search for common denominators and a possible pattern of togetherness
Dev underlines location and located inter-Indian reception as an aspect of inter-
literariness.
3. Key argument
A priori location of comparative literature with regard to aspects of
diversity and unity in India.
Interliterary process and a dialectical view of literary interaction.
Linguistic diversity.
Is Indian literature, in singular, a valid category, or are we rather to
speak of Indian literature in the plural?
4. Comparative Literature in India:
Aspects of diversity and unity in India, a country of immense linguistic
diversity and, thus, a country of many literatures.
In the case of India the study of literature should involve the notion of
the interliterary process and a dialectical view of literary interaction.
In addition to the eighteen languages listed in the Constitution, four
more are recognized by the Sahitya Akademi (National Academy of
Letters) for reasons of their significance in literature. However, this total
of twenty-two major languages and literatures is deceiving because
secondary school and university curricula include further languages
spoken in the area of the particular educational institution.
5. Indian literatures are ancient -- two of them (Sanskrit and Tamil) ancient in the sense
of Antiquity while the rest of an average age of eight to nine hundred years -- except
one recent arrival in the nineteenth century as an outcome of the colonial Western
impact (Indian English). Eighteenth- and nineteenth-century Western Indologists were
not interested in this question, for Indian literature to them was mainly Sanskrit,
extended at most to Pâli and Prakrit.
"Indian literature is one though written in many
languages" (Radhakrishnan).
Hegemonic Apprehensions
Gurbhagat Singh who has been discussing the notion of "differential multilogue" (see
Singh). He does not accept the idea of Indian literature as such but opts for the
designation of literatures produced in India. With regard to the history of comparative
literature as a discipline, he rejects both the French and the American schools as well as
the idea of Goethe's Weltliteratur.
6. Ironically, Indian poststructuralism inflicts upon itself a
sameness with difference speakers elsewhere and does not
seem to recognize that difference-speaking in India may be
different from difference-speaking elsewhere.
"I am convinced that this situation is as important as
theorization, particularly in a country where the
decolonization process is still incomplete and a neo-colonial
situation is in the making."
the theorist must make sure that commonality will not be
turned into an ideological and political commodity.
7. Jaidev's concept of oneness provides an ambience for particular
concerns with regard to cultural and artistic expression such as
the case of language overlaps, the bi- and multilinguality of
authors and their readership, openness to different genres, the
sharing of themes based in similar social and historical
experiences, emphasis on the oral and performing modes of
cultural and artistic transmission, and the ease of inter-
translatability
8. Aijaz Ahmad's In Theory: Classes, Nations, Literatures. Ahmad describes the construct of a
"syndicated" Indian literature that suggests an aggregate and unsatisfactory categorization of
Indian literature
“European literature" is at best an umbrella designation and at worst a pedagogical imposition
while Indian literature is classifiable and categorizable.
European and African literatures have some historical signifiers in addition to their geographical
designation, these are recent concepts whereas Indian homogeneity has the weight of tradition
behind it.
Indian literature was authenticated and not only that a history too was proposed for it with forms
and techniques varying from age to age.
Gokak, Mukherjee and Motilal Jotwani suggested implementing English as a function, owing to
the ever growing corpus of translations from the various indian literatures into English thus
making this new corpus of indo English literature available to all.
9. Indian literature is neither a simple unity as hegemonists of the nation-state persuasion would like it to
be, nor a simple diversity as relativists or poststructuralists would like it to be.
Majumdar suggests that Indian literature is neither "one" nor "many '' but rather a systemic whole where
many subsystems interact towards one in a continuous and never-ending dialectic.
Das's method and results to date show that Indian literature is neither a unity nor is it a total
differential.
Discipline of comparative literature, that is, its institutional manifestation as in the national association
of comparatists reflects the binary approach to the question of Indian literature.
10. Indian literature consisted of the author's extra consciousness and not of an archivable
entity as such but rather a state of mind in order to justify the unity of Indian
literature.
As readers, consciously or subconsciously we place the texts in additional languages
beside our original and first text. Or, one may say that alternatively these other
language texts impel us to do so.
We can use this active juxtaposition towards a possible commonality in genre history.
Juxtapositions do not mean that we have already made up our mind about the so-
called Indian novel of the first phase and reduce these texts to their common
denominator.
11. Conclusion
Amiya Dev suggested that first we understand our own
country's diversity and give respect to all the literature which
is in many languages, then we study the world's diversity.
Thank You!
