Buchanan's analysis explores the divide between "literature" and "popular literature," emphasizing the need to examine national literatures in the context of their broader, often downmarket, transnational reach. The discussion highlights how historicity in novels has evolved, influencing the representation and development of nation-states. Through this lens, the book challenges traditional literary classifications and encourages a reevaluation of how narratives shape national identities.
