Content:
"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."--
