The Department of Cinema and Comparative Literature presents film, literature, translation, and relations with the other arts as subjects of international and interdisciplinary study. It provides a basis for intensive work in literature, literary theory, critical methods, film studies, and the production of literary translations and film, video, and digital arts.

The department encourages study in comparative arts, with particular emphasis on the intersections between cinema and literature, where the department's resources are especially strong. Affiliated students and faculty members also have ready access to the resources of the International Writing Program and the Institute for Cinema and Culture.
