{"product_id":"dreams-of-modernity-laura-marcus-9781107044968","title":"Dreams of Modernity: Psychoanalysis, Literature, Cinema","description":"Laura Marcus is one of the leading literary critics of modernist literature and culture. Dreams of Modernity: Psychoanalysis, Literature, Cinema covers the period from around 1880 to 1930, when modernity as a form of social and cultural life fed into the beginnings of modernism as a cultural form. Railways, cinema, psychoanalysis and the literature of detection - and their impact on modern sensibility - are four of the chief subjects explored. Marcus also stresses the creativity of modernist women writers, including H.D., Dorothy Richardson and Virginia Woolf. The overriding themes of this work bear on the understanding of the early twentieth century as a transitional age, thus raising the question of how 'the moderns' understood the conditions of their own modernity.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Laura Marcus\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1107044960\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781107044968\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/24\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 269\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.10lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.80d","brand":"Laura Marcus","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47425141637375,"sku":"9781107044968","price":101.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_c30daa62-c536-473d-bef8-37b01c51fa33.jpg?v=1761537329","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/dreams-of-modernity-laura-marcus-9781107044968","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
