Abstract
In her article Fiction, Film, Painting, and Comparative Literature Ramona L. Ceciu proposes a view of comparative literature as a in a process of ascertaining its proper grammar. She argues that like any language in order to survive, comparative literature must allow for a constant rejuvenation of its vocabulary and methods it must keep an open structure that would accommodate fresh extra-methodological approaches through a procedure of re-invention and expansion. Ceciu posits that in this process the comparatist's objective creativity plays a crucial role and draws on Steven Totosy de Zepetnek's concept of a new comparative literature and applies the concept to literature, painting, and film in India.
