Abstract :

The present article tries to elaborate on comparative literature and compare different literary schools while studying the realm of comparative literature and its reflection in Iran and today world through clear reasons. Comparative literature is developed branch of literature and dramatic literature in which the similarities and differences of different literary works are compared. What is of great contention in comparative literature is not the role of the literary work but its reflection in another nation’s literature. Comparative literature goes beyond the political, linguistic and national borders of one nation. It not only looks for establishing connection with other branches of humanities but also understanding among different cultures.
