Though both Willa Cather and E. M. Forster have been alternately
praised as progressives and criticized as conservatives, the novels
of both writers embody the tenets of liberal humanism, while at the
same time reflecting the tensions associated with modernism (though
both of these terms have come under intense critical scrutiny in
recent years.) And while a few critics have offered brief
comparisons of individual works or particular tendencies of Cather
and Forster, none has provided the systematic comparative analysis
of the relationship between liberal humanist/modernist tensions and
the search for transcendence in their work that this book offers.
The principal aims of the present study are to locate the imagined
alternatives to the "lamentable present" embodied in the novels of
both writers and to explore how literature and the arts might
assist in transcending the deficiencies and disunities of life in
the modern era.
