About this product
Product Information
Examining the ways in which modernism is created within specific historical contexts, as well as how it redefines the concept of history itself, this book sheds new light on the historical-mindedness of high modernism and the artistic avant-gardes cutting across Anglophone and less explored European traditions. Featuring work from a variety of eminent scholars, it deals with issues as diverse as modernist new media and remediation, modernist print culture, autobiography as history writing, and modernism's futurity.Examining both literary and artistic modernism this book combines theoretical overviews with case studies of Anglophone as well as European modernism and speaks to the current historicising trend in modernist and literary studies.

Reviews
"Modernism, as Terry Eagleton points out in his witty foreword to this volume, "involves nothing less than the fashioning of whole new forms of human subjectivity." But this emphasis on newness and nowness conceals the dependence of modernism on the past. Even Ezra Pound's famous rallying cry "Make it new" implies a pre-existing "it" to be transformed anew. This volume brings together leading scholars to question the idea that modernism breaks free of the past or escapes what Joyce's Stephen Dedalus calls "the nightmare of history." Instead, these scholars show how modernism interrogates the methods and meanings of history, challenging any facile division between now and then." -- Maud Ellmann, Randy L. and Melvin R.

Modernism often promised to awake from the nightmare of history but it found it difficult to ignore its own historical origins. These essays which range from a reflection on the small magazines in which modernist writing found its most congenial setting to a consideration of Andre Breton as an office manager emphasise the very specific histories in which the general category of modernism took shape." -- Colin MacCabe, Distinguished Professor of English and Film, University of Pittsburgh, USA, This is a magnificent collection which conjugates modernism and history in marvellously illuminating essays.
