New Perspectives on the Mature Work
Edited by Yisrael Levin, University of Victoria
Focusing on Algernon Charles Swinburnes later
writings, this collection makes a case for the seriousness

the key features of the collection is the contextualizing
of Swinburnes work in new contexts such as Victorian
mythography, Victorian literary criticism, continental

the essays offer scholars a richer portrait of Swinburnes

Amy Lowell, Diva Poet
Melissa Bradshaw, Loyola University Chicago
Bradshaw uses theories of the diva and female celebrity
to account for Lowells extraordinary literary inuence
in the early twentieth century and the dismissal of her
work after her death. Drawing on a rich array of letters,
memoirs, newspapers and periodicals, but eschewing
the biographical interpretations of her poetry that have
often characterized criticism on Lowell; Bradshaw
restores Lowell to her rightful place as a powerful
writer and impresario of modernist verse.
Contents: Introduction: the poet as diva: femininity,
celebrity, poetry; The fat woman in the attic: cultural
memory and the construction of a persona; The
demon saleswoman: selling avant-garde poetics to the
American public; The last of the barons: Americanism
and gender ambivalence in wartime; Nothing to hide:
Lowells love poems and the myth of authenticity; The
erotics of submission: Eleonora Duse in Lowells poetry;
Afterword: whatever happened to Amy Lowell?; Index.

Anxiety and Evil in the Writings
of Patricia Highsmith
Fiona Peters, Bath Spa University, UK
Drawing extensively on the under-explored Highsmith
Archive, Peters suggests that the usual generic
distinctionscrime ction, mystery, suspense
have been largely unhelpful in elucidating Patricia
Highsmiths novels. Peters adopts a psychoanalytic
approach to show that specic disturbances within
her text have resulted in Highsmiths writing remaining
resistant to explication and to the more sophisticated
interpretative strategies that would seek to position
her within a specic genre.

Death in American Texts
and Performances
Corpses, Ghosts, and the Reanimated Dead
Edited by Lisa K. Perdigao, Florida Institute
of Technology and Mark Pizzato, University
of North Carolina, Charlotte
How do twentieth-century artists bring forth the
powerful reality of death when it exists in memory
and lived experience as something that happens only
to others? This volume grapples with this paradox,
examining literary texts and performance media that
include Amiri Barakas Dutchman, Thornton Wilders
Our Town, John Edgar Widemans The Cattle Killing,
Toni Morrisons Sula and Song of Solomon, Don
DeLillos White Noise, and HBOs Six Feet Under.

France and the Spanish Civil War
Cultural Representations
of the War Next Door, 19361945
Martin Hurcombe, University of Bristol, UK
Hurcombe analyzes texts from far-right, clearly
pro-Nationalist writers, as well as from left-wing authors
whose allegiance fell unambiguously on the Republican
side, and, in a very interesting nal chapter, from authors
on both sides whose ideas found themselves challenged
by what they observed. As a result, the whole book
provides an illuminating portrait of the various political
factions and tensions that animated France in those
years and beyond.
David Caron, University of Michigan
In this wide-ranging study of French intellectuals who
represented the Spanish Civil War as it was happening
and in its immediate aftermath, Hurcombe explores
the ways in which these individuals addressed national
anxieties and shaped the French political landscape.
Bringing together reports, essays and ction by French
supporters of Francos Nationalists and of the Spanish
Republic, Hurcombe shows the multifaceted ways in
which conict impacted upon French political culture.

From Modernist Entombment
to Postmodernist Exhumation
Dead Bodies in Twentieth-Century
American Fiction
Lisa K. Perdigao, Florida Institute of Technology
A thoughtful addition to studies of representation
and the body, Perdigaos book sheds new light
on a wide range of American authors who meditate
on death, mourning and language, especially as these
are shadowed by gender and race.
Laura Doyle, University of Massachusetts, Amherst
How ctional representations of dead bodies develop
over the twentieth century is the central concern of
Lisa K. Perdigaos study of American writers. Perdigao
considers works by writers from William Faulkner and
Richard Wright to Toni Morrison and Jeffrey Eugenides,
arguing that the crisis of bodily representation can be
traced from modernist entombment to postmodernist
exhumation, complementary drives that speak to the
tension between the desire to bury the dead and the
need to remember.

Hellenism and Loss
in the Work of Virginia Woolf
Theodore Koulouris, University of Sussex, UK
Taking up Virginia Woolfs fascination with Greek
literature and culture, this book explores her
engagement with the nineteenth-century phenomenon
of British Hellenism and her transformation of that
multifaceted socio-cultural and political reality into a
particular textual aesthetic, which Theodore Koulouris
denes as Greekness Woolfs Greekness, Koulouris
argues, enabled her to navigate male and female
appropriations of British Hellenism and was singly
important in providing her with a language of mourning.

Choice
Representing a wide range of critical and theoretical

Marianne Moore and
the Cultures of Modernity
Victoria Bazin, Northumbria University, UK
Victoria Bazin brings an important new perspective
to Moore studies by positioning her dialectically in
relation to pragmatism, Walter Benjamins theories
of consumerism and history, and the contradictions
of modernity for women, demonstrating that Moore
connects poetry to the mundane and habitual while
engaging in nuanced feminist analysis of her peer
poets and philosophers and of newly emerging mass
consumerism. This is a book every student and scholar
of Moore will want to read.
Cristanne Miller, University of Buffalo
Victoria Bazins interpretations of Marianne Moores
poetry draw extensively on archival resources to trace
her inuences and to describe her own distinctive
modernist aesthetic. Bazin argues that it was Moores
feminist adaptation of pragmatism that shaped her
poetry, producing a complex response to the new
expanding consumer culture, one that explores not
only the aesthetic pleasures but also the ethical
consequences of too much.

Mediterranean Modernisms
The Poetic Metaphysics of Odysseus Elytis
Marinos Pourgouris, University of Cyprus
Mediterranean Modernisms is the rst comparative
study of Odysseus ElytisUndaunted in his pursuit
of a Greek and a European Elytis, Pourgouris provides
a kaleidoscopic look at the place of poetry in the
Mediterranean imaginary.
Gregory Jusdanis, Ohio State University
Engaging with the work of Nobel Prize-winning poet
Odysseus Elytis within the framework of international
modernism, Marinos Pourgouris places the poets work
in the context of other modernist thinkers in Europe,
including Albert Camus, Charles Baudelaire, Gaston
Bachelard, Sigmund Freud and C.G. Jung. Informed
by extensive research in the United States and Europe,
Pourgouris study is one of the most compelling

modernism, the Mediterranean, and the work
of Odysseus Elytis.

Modernist Short Fiction by Women
The Liminal in Katherine Manseld, Dorothy
Richardson, May Sinclair and Virginia Woolf
Claire Drewery, Shefeld Hallam University, UK
Exploring the short storys relationship to literary
Modernism, Claire Drewery considers works by
Katherine Manseld, Dorothy Richardson, May Sinclair
and Virginia Woolf. Drewery argues that the short
story is preoccupied with transgressing boundaries,
and thus is an ideal genre for examining the Modernist
fascination with the liminal. Drewery shows how
these writers contribute signicantly to the Modernist
aesthetic that interrogates identity, the construction
of the self, and the relationship between the individual
and society.
Contents: Introduction: the liminal aesthetic in the
modernist short story; The journey not the arrival:
pilgrimage as a modernist liminal metaphor; Beyond the
rite of passage: impossible mourning as an aesthetic of
disunity; The death of the other: dying, mortality, and the
textual body; The modernist uncanny tradition: mysticism,
metaphysics and the psychological; The inner life as
liminal discourse; Out of the ordinary: the revelatory
moment as a liminal space; Works cited; Index.

Urban Confrontations in Literature

European Contexts, American Evolutions
Edward J. Ahearn, Brown University
Urban Confrontations assembles a rich assortment
of politically committed writers whose work testies
to a signicant overlap between literary representations
of the city and sociological ones.
Times Literary Supplement
Edward J. Ahearn shows that together, works from
literature and the social sciences can illuminate city life
in ways that neither can accomplish separately. Whether
viewing Charles Baudelaire alongside Emile Durkheim
and Georg Simmel or Herman Melvilles Bartleby
the Scrivener as a challenge to James Q. Wilsons
Bureaucracy, Ahearn does justice to the complexity
of his subject matter. Ultimately, Ahearn suggests,
neither literature nor the social sciences can capture
the experience of urban misery.

Virginia Woolf
The Patterns of Ordinary Experience
Lorraine Sim, University of Western

Placing Virginia Woolfs views in the context of the
philosophical and lay accounts of everyday experience
that dominated the cultural thought of her time, Sim
draws on the major novels and on a number of shorter
and less-discussed texts such as short stories, essays,
memoirs and diaries. Woolf, Sim contends, explores the
potential of everyday experience as a site of personal
meaning, social understanding and ethical value.

Sean Pryor, University of New South Wales, Australia
Emphasizing the interplay of aesthetic forms and

the endlessly reiterated longing for paradise that features
throughout the works of W.B. Yeats and Ezra Pound.
Throughout his study, Pryor argues that Yeats and Pound
reconceive the quest for paradise as a pursuit for a new
kind of poetry, a journey that Pryor traces by analyzing
unpublished manuscript drafts and newly published
drafts that have received little attention.

Making a strong case for a revaluation of Wyndham
Lewis, this collection argues that signicant aspects
of Lewis writing, painting and thinking have not yet
received the attention they deserve. Lewis contributions
to the production and circulation of modernism and the
links between Lewis writing and painting are explored in

a study which deals with the subject head-on. This book
is among the best in the rich literature on Cornell.
David Hopkins, University of Glasgow, UK
Focusing on his evocative and profound references
to children and their stories, Childrens Stories and
Child-Time in the Works of Joseph Cornell and the
Transatlantic Avant-Garde studies the relationship
between the artists work on childhood and his search
for a transgured concept of time. As it changes the
focus from Cornells boxes to his multimedia works,
this study also situates Cornell and his art in the broader
context of the transatlantic avant-garde of the
1930s and 40s.

Maruja Mallo and the
Spanish Avant-Garde
Shirley Mangini, California State University
Ashgate Studies in Surrealism
Shirley Mangini has masterfully woven together the
historical context, the artists personal biography and
analyses of the various phases of her painting into a
gripping narrative. Hers is an authoritative and detailed
account of this astonishing woman, who forged an
artistic career in an era in Spain that was particularly
hostile to women artists and writers.
Roberta Johnson, University of Kansas and UCLA
and author of Gender and Nation
in the Spanish Modernist Novel
The rst book in English on the artist, Maruja Mallo and
the Spanish Avant-Garde examines the life and art of a
woman sidelined by history and her male counterparts.
Out of the misogyny and political conict of interwar
Madrid, Mallo emerges, not as Surrealist muse, but as a
vital gure in the owering of Spains cultural vanguard.
Unprecedented interviews with Mallos family provide
fresh insights into this extraordinary artist.

established scholars, this volume places this compelling
and elusive artist's painted oeuvre within a broader
cultural context, and links his artistic preoccupations
with literary and musical currents. Rather than seeking
consensus on his art through one methodology, or
focusing on one crucial work or period, this collection
investigates the range of Manet's art in the context
of his time and considers how his vision has shaped
subsequent interpretations.

Reading Photography
A Sourcebook of Critical Text
Edited by Sri-Kartini Leet,
University of Northampton, UK
The relatively new medium of photography has
generated, from its inception, intense debate over
its merits as an art form. (It was not until late in the
twentieth century, for example, that color photography
was accepted in the canon of art historical scholarship).
In Reading Photography, Sri-Kartini Leet brings together
over 100 extracts from writings on different themes
in the medium to explore the art of photography.

The Sculpture of John Skeaping
Jonathan Blackwood,
University of Dundee, Scotland
The British Sculptors and Sculpture Series
Although his career spanned six decades, John Skeaping
(19011980) is often associated with the work he
completed while he was married to Barbara Hepworth.
However, this period of just six years (1926 to 1932)
ignores the breadth of Skeapings visual output and
fails to reect his true artistic legacy. Long overdue,
The Sculpture of John Skeaping surveys the artists
rich career in the round. Including a full catalog of
Skeapings sculptures plus over 200 reproductions of the
artists works, the book is essential reading for all those
interested in learning more about this unjustly neglected
gure within British sculpture.

Sculpture and the Museum
Edited by Christopher R. Marshall,
University of Melbourne, Australia
Subject/Object: New Studies in Sculpture
Sculpture and the Museum is the rst in-depth
examination of the varying roles and meanings assigned
to sculpture in museums and galleries during the
modern period, from neo-classical to contemporary
art practice. In particular, the contributors consider the
complex issue of how best to display sculpture across
different periods and according to varying curatorial
philosophies. Sculptors discussed include Canova,
Rodin, Henry Moore, Flaxman and contemporary artists
such as Rebecca Horn, Rachel Whiteread, Mark Dion
and Olafur Eliasson, with a variety of museums
in America, Canada, the UK and Europe presented
as case studies.

11 Modernist Studies 2011/2012 | www.ashgate.com
British Music and Modernism,
18951960
Edited by Matthew Riley,
University of Birmingham, UK
Imaginative analytical and critical work on British music
of the early twentieth century has been hindered by
perceptions of the repertory as insular in its references
and backward in its style and syntax, escaping the
modernity that surrounded its composers. Recent
research has begun to break down these perceptions
and has found intriguing links between British music
and modernism. This book brings together contributions
from scholars working in analysis, hermeneutics,
reception history, critical theory and the history of ideas.

British Rock Modernism, 19671977
The Story of Music Hall in Rock
Barry J. Faulk, Florida State University
Ashgate Popular and Folk Music Series
British Rock Modernism, 19671977 explains how
the denitive British rock performers of this epoch
aimed, not at the youthful rebellion for which they
are legendary, but at a highly self-conscious project
of commenting on the business in which they were
engaged. They did so by ironically appropriating the
traditional forms of Victorian music hall and the result
was a symbolically charged form whose main purpose
was to unsettle the hierarchy that set traditional popular
culture above the new medium.

descending melodic motives, passacaglia and the

The Music of David Lumsdaine
Kelly Ground to Cambewarra
Michael Hooper, Royal Academy of Music, UK
Australian by birth but a long-time resident of Great
Britain, David Lumsdaine (b.1931) is central to both
Australian and British modernism. By analyzing a series
of Lumsdaines compositions, focusing on works written
between 1966 and 1980, Hooper places Lumsdaines
music in the context of Australian and British avant-
gardes, and reveals its elegance, lyricism and
technical virtuosity.
Contents: Introduction; David Lumsdaines Kelly

Music and the Modern Condition:
Investigating the Boundaries
Ljubica Ilic
I cannot overemphasize the originality and brilliance
of Ljubica Ilics project. Seventeenth-century music
continues to be viewed as an awkward transition
between the Renaissance and the Enlightenment, and
her insights shed light not only on music history but
on European culture in general: the problems of artistic
autonomy, of representation, of subjectivity, of the
ethical responsibility of art, of theology. I was
continually astonished by the insights she brings
forward throughout the book.
Susan McClary, University of California, Los Angeles
Two crucial moments in the formation and
disintegration of musical modernity and the musical
canon occurred at the turn of the seventeenth and the
rst half of the twentieth century. Ljubica Ilic provides
a fresh and close look at these moments, exploring
the ways musical compositions shift to and away from
ideological structures identied with modernity. The
focus is on European art music whose grand narrative,
dened by tonality and teleological development,
begins in the seventeenth century and ends with
twentieth-century modernisms. Seeing musical
storytelling as a metaphoric representation of selfhood,
and modernity as a historical continuum, Ilic examines
the boundaries and relationships between the musical
work, the subject and modern European history.

Roger Smalley: A Case Study of
Late Twentieth-Century Composition
Christopher Mark, University of Surrey, UK
Writing the history of musical composition in the
late twentieth century might be seen as problematic.
A productive way forward is to pursue case studies
involving single composers whose music reects several
aspects of recent activity. The music of the composer
Roger Smalley is ideal material for such a study, because
of his involvement with an unusually large number
of the myriad concerns and practices of post-1950s
composition. Employing an interview with the composer
as a kind of cantus rmus, the book incorporates critical
commentary on the composers major works in a
chronological narrative that engages with broad issues
of central relevance to Smalleys generation.
Contents: Preface; Culminating moments: an interview
with Roger Smalley; A child of Serialism (19615);
Changing orientations (196574); In a new land
(197488); Back to the future II (198899); Epilogue;
