520 1 |a "The recent enthusiasm for things postmodern has often produced a caricature of Modernism as monolithic and reactionary. In a lively and wide-ranging discussion, Peter Nicholls argues that the distinctive feature of Modernism is its diversity. Through original analytic accounts of each of the main movements, he explores the ways in which the new stylistic developments were closely bound up with a shifting politics of gender and authority." "Modernisms introduces the reader to a wealth of literary experiment, beginning in the nineteenth-century world of Baudelaire and Mallarme and moving forward into the recognizably modern one of the first avant-gardes. Close readings of key texts monitor the explosive histories of Futurism, Expressionism, Cubism, Dada, and Surrealism - hisotires which allow the familiar terrain of Anglo-American modernism to be seen in a strikingly different light."--Jacket
