{"product_id":"modernisms-peter-nicholls-9780520201033","title":"Modernisms: A Literary Guide","description":"The recent enthusiasm for things \u003ci\u003epost\u003c\/i\u003emodern has often produced a caricature of Modernism as monolithic and reactionary. Peter Nicholls argues instead that the distinctive feature of Modernism is its diversity. Through a lively analysis of each of Modernism's main literary movements, he explores the connections between the new stylistic developments and the shifting politics of gender and authority.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNicholls introduces a wealth of literary experimentation, beginning with Baudelaire and Mallarmé and moving forward to the first avant-gardes. Close readings of key texts monitor the explosive histories of Futurism, Expressionism, Cubism, Dada, and Surrealism, histories that allow Anglo-American Modernism to be seen in a strikingly different light. In revealing Modernism's broad and varied terrain, Nicholls evokes the richness of a cultural moment that continues to shape our own.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Peter Nicholls\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0520201035\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780520201033\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of California Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/24\/1995\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 382\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.02lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.46w x 0.94d","brand":"Peter Nicholls","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47087462678783,"sku":"9780520201033","price":31.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_2afecc4e-e57e-4197-ba74-36f083f8bb4d.jpg?v=1753849961","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/modernisms-peter-nicholls-9780520201033","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
