• Languages of publication: PL

Abstracts

PL

Artykuł dotyczy zjawiska negatywnej recepcji tematyki religijnej w amerykańskiej komparatystyce oraz trudności, jakie w amerykańskim i włoskim środowisku naukowym wiążą się z interpretacją Narzeczonych jako refleksji nad odpowiedzialnością człowieka i jej związkami z ideą teodycei. Szczególną uwagę poświęca się zagadnieniu teoretycznego i praktycznego wprowadzenia religii w obszar binarnych studiów interdyscyplinarnych z zakresu komparatystyki.

EN

The essay examines the phenomenon of negative reception of religious thematics in the field of Comparative Literature in the US and the difficulties in interpreting I promessi sposi as a reflection on human accountability and its relationship to the idea of theodicy, both in American and Italian academe. Particular attention is paid to the problem of methodological and practical introduction of religion into the dyadic system of interdisciplinary studies in Comparative Literature.
