The international and comparative range of the  discipline provides students a broad critical understanding of what literature is and does. Since knowing the language is essential to understanding a given literature and culture, all majors study a second language and literature at an advanced level. At the same time, the study of works in translation provokes cross-cultural comparisons and helps prepare students for a multilingual, pluralistic, and global world. Comparison of literature to other kinds of arts, media, and writing further extends understanding of literature and culture. Two programs of study are offered: the Major in Comparative Literature and the Major in Comparative Arts. A Major in Comparative Literature or Comparative Arts Offers Many Possibilities Comparative Literature and Comparative Arts majors find internships and jobs--in the United States and abroad--where they do research, write and edit, or teach, while gaining experience and learning about fields as diverse as the environment and the arts and entertainment industries. Majors in Comparative Literature can enter degree programs in professional fields including Journalism, Law, Librarianship, and Business. Majors can study Education, to become certified to teach literature or languages in a high school. Or they can pursue a graduate degree in Comparative Literature or a national literature in preparation for a career in teaching and research at a college or university. Why Major in Comparative Literature?Read the most exciting writing from around the worldExplore other cultures through their writings and artsStudy other languages in order to expand your own experienceLearn analytical and critical skills useful in interpreting texts of all sorts, from political speeches to religious classics as well as literary workUnderstand your own culture from new perspectivesDiscover correlations between literature, the arts, and other fields of knowledgeComparative Literature MajorsFlexibility to Design Your ProgramBecause comparatists must make choices about which languages and which national literatures they will study, you will find that the requirements for both majors encourage students to plan individualized programs of study in consultation with their advisors.Help Making Your ChoicesCourse programs are planned by you and your faculty advisor, who will help you decide which literature courses to take, whether to start a third language, and where you would like to go if you study abroad. Your advisor will also help make arrangements for study abroad, get you together with other students who have studied abroad or are going to do so in order to share the experience.

The courses in Comparative Literature truly built on each other, leaving me with a solid grounding in theory as well as an enhanced ability for critical thought and comfort articulating my ideas. ―Amy MillerComparative Literature major Quick LinksResourcesEventsOur PeopleContactAdditional information Arts & Sciences Graduate Studies in A&SCopyright 2024 by:Arts & Sciences at Washington University in St. LouisFollow Us Instagram Facebook Twitter YouTube Contact Us: Comparative Literature [email protected] Visit the main Washington University in St. Louis website1 Brookings Drive / St. Louis, MO 63130 / wustl.edu
