Description
This collection of thirteen essays re-examines the modernist period in literature from the early 20th century to World War II. The contributors have been invited to explore lesser-known works, challenge prevailing opinions about modernist theories, and reconsider authors often associated with the movement.
The result is a fresh and varied assessment of modernism as a phenomenon that is more complex, dynamic, and nuanced than previously thought. By examining less familiar texts and challenging established assumptions, these essays demonstrate that modernism remains a vital and evolving field of study.
