比较文学应该是研究工作的不同分工，是现代社会分工的一个方面。文学的比较研究以来自不同语言区域和文化氛围的作品为研究对象，往往是民族语文学对语言或文化束缚的合理反应。文学只有在国际的，也就是在文化思维脉络范围内才能具体地理解。这是欧洲与北美比较文学创始人的 Comparative literature should be the different division of labor in research and an aspect of the division of labor in modern society. The comparative study of literature takes the works from different linguistic regions and cultural atmosphere as the research object, and is often the rational reaction of nationality language to the restriction of language or culture. Literature can be understood only in the international context, that is, within the context of cultural thinking. This is the founder of comparative literature in Europe and North America
