This collection aims to contribute to current discussion on the relationship between literature and knowledge, and attempts to develop a historical epistemology of literature. The aim is not to determine the essential epistemological conditions of literature as such or those of a universalistic author-subject, but instead, to think about the historicity of literary knowledge starting from the objectivity of its forms.
