This book applies a new model of comparative literature that gives incompatibility and contradiction their due. In case studies that include Leibniz, the Book of Odes, and Hegel, it explores the intersection between translation and allegory.

"This is a study of The Book of Odes, the Prefaces, and the enormous tradition of Odes scholarship. The display of erudition and interpretive subtlety is remarkable, not least becasue Saussy is able to articulate coherent problems from within what might otherwise seem an unmanageable wealth of details."--Choice
