Abstract
The works of critics as dissimilar, in almost every other respect, as Shklovsky, Tynianov, Vodicka,
Paul de Man, etc. show the usefulness of “comparative approach” to the general concept of “literariness”,
however heterogeneously it may be put to work. The author of the essay argues that the distinction
Literariness vs. Literature corresponds with the idea of autonomous worlds of literariness
from the typological point of view in the global inequality; it presents the field of “comparative literature”
as a way of reading and re-reading in unexpected ways of devices and vices. Chinese literariness
as a typological, historically closed and theoretically productive in-between of Sinology and
comparative literature.
