Hillis Miller-two thinkers from different continents, cultures, training, and critical perspectives-debating and reflecting upon what literature is and why it matters. Ghosh and Miller do not attempt to formulate a joint theory of literature; rather, they allow their different backgrounds and lively disagreements to stimulate generative dialogue on poetry, world literature, pedagogy, and the ethics of literature. Addressing a varied literary context ranging from Victorian literature, Chinese literary criticism and philosophy, and continental philosophy to Sanskrit poetics and modern European literature, Ghosh offers a transnational theory of literature while Miller emphasizes the need to account for what a text says and how it says it. \u003ci\u003eThinking Literature across Continents\u003c\/i\u003e highlights two minds continually discovering new paths of communication and two literary and cultural traditions intersecting in productive and compelling ways.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eRanjan Ghosh teaches in the Department of English, University of North Bengal, and is the author of, most recently, \u003ci\u003eTranscultural Poetics and the Concept of the Poet: From Philip Sidney to T.
