  The discipline of literary studies has a long tradition of borrowing the concepts and methods of related disciplines in the humanities and the social sciences, while also itself exerting a significant influence on other disciplines. In this book, 15 literary scholars hailing from five different countries consider these processes of mutual enrichment from various critical perspectives. What is the current state of literary studies, and what does the future of this many-faceted field look like? How can the approach of, or trend within, literary studies that each of these scholars represents contribute to literary studies in general? The chapters of the book are revised versions of papers given in June 2016 at a conference entitled “The Future of Literary Studies” at the Norwegian Academy of Science and Letters, Oslo. Demonstrating that literary studies constitutes a remarkably active and strikingly diverse area of study and research, the chapters confirm that the field of literary studies is dynamic and open-minded, receiving impulses from other disciplines yet conscious of the characteristics, demands and possibilities appropriate to a discipline in its own right. The book has an introduction by the editor and an afterword by Frederik Tygstrup, University of Copenhagen.

  “Darwin propagated the idea that humans are like other animals fighting for survival, but distinguished supposedly by our intellect. This logic makes it possible for some human lives to be seen as more valuable than others,” says Professor of literature Michael Lundblad.

  Med Darwin kom ideen om at mennesker er rasjonelle dyr som kjemper for overlevelse. Hva vi regner som verdifulle liv er p­­reget av denne logikken, mener litteraturprofessor Michael Lundblad.

  This paper asks how narrative tropes linked to disability and animality are deployed in a work of (extremely) popular fiction, namely the television series Game of Thrones (GoT). While disability and animality are often not theorized together, we argue that their sites of intersection are highly productive. By investigating the tensions and possibilities that arise when disability and animality meet, we seek new insight into how different forms of embodiment and different lives are culturally (de)valued.
