Abstract

Complicating the matter of expertise with the world-literature canon is that many works are written for multicultural and transnational readerships. In the past, these works might have been produced at cultural crossroads; today, many authors are broaching transnational issues and assuming broad, transnational readerships. Who, then, is the expert on these texts?
