xvii, 320 pages : illustrations ; 23 cm. "This Companion has long been a standard introduction to the field. Now fully updated and enhanced with four new chapters, it addresses the key themes being researched, taught and studied in modernism today. Its interdisciplinary approach is central to its success as it brings together readings of the many varieties of modernism. Chapters address the major literary genres, the intellectual, religious and political contexts, and parallel developments in film, painting and music. The catastrophe of the First World War, the emergence of feminism, the race for empire, the conflict among classes: the essays show how these events and circumstances shaped aesthetic and literary experiments. In doing so, they explain clearly both the precise formal innovations in language, image, scene and tone, and the broad historical conditions of a movement that aspired to transform culture"-- Introduction / Michael Levenson -- The metaphysics of modernism / Michael Bell -- The cultural economy of modernism / Lawrence Rainey -- The modernist novel / David Trotter -- Modern poetry / James Longenbach -- Modernism in drama / Christopher Innes -- Modernism and the politics of culture / Sara Blair -- Modernism and religion / Pericles Lewis -- Modernism and mass culture / Allison Pease -- Modernism and gender / Marianne DeKoven -- Musical motives / Daniel Albright -- Modernism and the visual arts / Glen MacLeod -- Modernism and film / Michael Wood -- Modernism and colonialism / Elleke Boehmer and Steven Matthews. edited by Michael Levenson.
