The Comparatist is a sponsored journal of the Society for Comparative Literature and the Arts. It has appeared in print annually since 1977 and is currently sponsored by Whitman College. The Comparatist publishes comparative work involving theory, literary and cultural movements, literature and the arts, relations between European and non-European literatures, and inter-American literary exchanges. In addition to a general articles section, each issue features eight to ten articles clustered around major comparative-thematic topics, such as "Pessimism, "Fantasy," "Comparative Racisms," "Ontologies," or "Catastrophes." A review section also evaluates important theoretical and practical concerns involving cross-cultural study. As a forum for literary comparatists, the journal encourages intertextual and comparative methods of theoretical-historical analysis, and of critical interpretation.
