Summaries and Reviews
Amazon.com description: Product Description: The full story of modernism is yet to be written. This collection of essays provides an important page in this complex and inconclusive story of fluidities and hybridities by rendering problematical the linear sequence from modernism to postmodernism.
This book explores the many facets of modernism in a variety of essays written by an international group of scholars. It deals with and puts in question the western literary tradition in many of its transcontinental and trans-hemispheric encounters. Criticism of âhigh modernismâ is put in perspective by discussions of German âreactionary modernismâ, American âsocial modernismâ and âminor artsâ, mid-twentieth-century âBaudelairean modernityâ and unprecedented expansions of the concepts of modernity and modernism themselves.
Engaging in dialogue with the newest geographical, transnational, and global enlargements of the concept of modernism in time and space (from the âMiddle Passageâ to emergent cultures of the twenty-first century, from Europe to America, Africa and Asia), the volume covers a wide range of translocal and transtemporal literary, artistic, cultural, and social fields and perspectives.
