{"product_id":"the-other-modernism-cinzia-sartini-blum-9780520200494","title":"The Other Modernism: F. T. Marinetti's Futurist Fiction of Power","description":"Drawing on recent feminist and psychoanalytic criticism, Cinzia Sartini Blum provides the first analysis of the rhetoric, politics, and psychology of gender in the avant-garde writings of the Italian Futurist F.T. Marinetti. Her book explores the relations between the seemingly unrelated goals of Italian Futurism: technical revolution, espousal of violence, avowed misogyny, and rejection of literary tradition.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBlum argues for the centrality of the rhetoric of gender in Marinetti's work. She also investigates a diverse array of his futurist textual practices that range from formal experimentation with \"words in freedom\" to nationalist manifestos that advocate intervention in World War I and anticipate subsequent fascist rhetoric of power and virility. A major contribution to the study of the twentieth-century avant-garde and the first full-length study of Marinetti in English, \u003ci\u003eThe Other Modernism\u003c\/i\u003e will interest all those concerned with twentieth-century literature, culture, and society and the problem of modern subjectivity.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Cinzia Sartini Blum\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0520200497\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780520200494\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 06\/21\/1996\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 250\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.77lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.03w x 0.70d","brand":"Cinzia Sartini Blum","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44056203428095,"sku":"9780520200494","price":30.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_b165c48c-8215-404c-aebf-ebd6ef334009.jpg?v=1685040066","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-other-modernism-cinzia-sartini-blum-9780520200494","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
