description Goethe and his Followers: Weltliteratur and its Afterlives. Goethe´s Weltliteratur, which recalls cosmopolitan ideas of the 18th century, drew attention to literature´s multicultural role in the international exchange and networks. His ideas were developed by subsequent scholars who reflected upon the importance of translations, literatures belonging to small nations, and putting in contact local and global aspects in their discussions about literary studies. Hugo Meltzl emphasized multilingualism for development of literary studies; Georg Brandes drew attention to the importance of small literatures; and Fritz Strich proclaimed that world literature should challenge the Eurocentric notion of literary studies. REZUMAT. Goethe și urmașii săi: Weltliteratur și metamorfozele sale. Conceptul de Weltliteratur al lui Goethe, ce reactualizează ideile cosmopolite ale secolului al XVIII-lea, a atras atenția asupra rolului multicultural al literaturii în schimburile și legăturile internaționale. Ideile sale au fost dezvoltate de foști elevi care au reflectat la importanța traducerilor, a literaturilor minore, punând în contact aspecte locale și globale în discuțiile lor despre studiile literare. Hugo Meltzl a subliniat importanța multilingvismului în dezvoltarea studiilor literare; Georg Brandes a atras atenția asupra importanței literaturilor minore; Fritz Strich a proclamat faptul că literatura mondială ar trebui să concureze noțiunea eurocentrică de studii literare. Cuvinte cheie: Weltliteratur, Literatură mondială, Glocalism, Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, Hugo Meltzl, Georg Brandes, Fritz Strich.
