First published in 1980, this volume examines English literature (1900-1930) within its socio-political context. Scholars explore literature's departure from realism, Freud's influence, anthropological perspectives, and philosophical developments. An essential resource for understanding this pivotal literary era.
First published in 1980, 1900-1930 situates English literature firmly within its political, historical, and cultural landscape. This comprehensive volume explores the complementary philosophical developments that defined this transformative period.
Michael Bell and Cyril Barrett examine how literature and visual arts evolved beyond realist conventions, while R.A. Gekoski analyzes Freud's revolutionary model of the psyche and its profound impact on literary representations of human personality. Christopher Nash's contribution reveals how anthropological studies of myth and archaic cultures opened new perspectives on both literature and civilization itself.
Fred Reid provides an essential historical framework that extends beyond economic and political decision-making to encompass the diverse values that shaped alternative responses to the era's challenges. David Holdcroft's philosophical analysis highlights both the striking differences and fascinating affinities between disciplines during this period.
This volume is an indispensable resource for students and scholars of English literature seeking a nuanced understanding of this pivotal era.
