Description
Kerry Bolton's Artists of the Right: Resisting Decadence is a study of ten leading twentieth-century literary artists who were sympathetic with Fascism and/or National Socialism. The book explores their political commitments and how they influenced their lives, art, and economic, religious, and philosophical convictions. Bolton examines the lives and works of writers such as D. H. Lawrence, H. P. Lovecraft, and Ezra Pound, among others, in a clear and engaging style. He challenges prevailing liberal prejudices and presents a nuanced view of these complex individuals and their artistic legacies. Through his research, Bolton sheds new light on the intersections of politics, art, and ideology in the early twentieth century, providing a thought-provoking and insightful analysis of a fascinating period in literary history.
