what is world literature???

During lecture, professor Mufti stated that world literature is now being produced all over the world, and because of this world literature is seen as profoundly unequal in its uniformity. This unequal literature systems stems from power and domination. Moretti wants to show that their is a hierarchy of literature from a world wide view point, which implies that some countries have more "symbolic capital" than others. Because in most countries, no matter the language, there will always be novels in English. We can see that the English language is swallowing up more and more languages globally, and this is because of this system of world literature. This western domination has greatly influenced, and is now influencing, the way authors around the world write their novels.
