Description

The early 20th century was marked by significant scientific and technological advancements. This book explores how these changes influenced writers such as H.G. Wells, Gertrude Stein, James Joyce, and Virginia Woolf. Modernism, Science, and Technology examines the impact of key scientific concepts on modernist literature, including physics, mathematics, life sciences, social sciences, and 'pseudosciences'. The book provides a comprehensive overview of the period's paradigm shifts, from atomic weapons to mass media, and how writers responded to these changes. With a timeline of key developments and guides to further reading, this book is an invaluable resource for students and researchers studying modernist literature.
