Summary/Abstract: Negotiating world literature in the first international journal of comparative literary studies. The Albanian case. Former research on the first international journal of comparative literary studies, the Acta Comparationis Litterarum Universarum edited in Cluj, has often been to general and consequently avoided to tackle the basic question of the nature of the large scholarly network that made this journal unique. Through the case study of Thimi / Euthyme Mitko and the presence of the Albanian literature in ACLU the paper foregrounds the subtle, often almost unvisible, but important negotiation of visions that came to frame the often neglected and less analysed dynamics of the journal.
