Description

Exploring the literary and artistic movements that defined modernity, from 1910 to 1945, this book delves into the key figures and ideas that shaped the era.

Jane Goldman examines the evolution of writing, reading, performing, and publishing practices during this period, as well as the international connections between writers and artists. The book introduces students to the work of canonical modernist writers, such as Ezra Pound, T.S. Eliot, and Virginia Woolf, alongside other important figures like Nathanael West and Kurt Schwitters.

By challenging the traditional notion of Modernism, Goldman offers a nuanced understanding of this pivotal moment in literary history, revealing the complexities and diversity of modernist thought and practice.
