The second half of the twentieth century was a period which saw
unprecedented social, technological and economic changes. These
upheavals are reflected in the development of literature, music and
cinema in the post-war period.
From Kingsley Amis to Salman Rushdie, "British Culture of the
Postwar" is an ideal starting point for those studying cultural
developments in Britain during this period. Chapters on individual
people and art forms give a clear and concise overview of the
progression of different genres. They also discuss the wider issues
of Britain's relationships with America and Europe, and the idea of
Englishness.
Each section is introduced with a short discussion of the major
historical events of the period. Read as a whole "British Culture
of the Postwar" will give students a comprehensive introduction to
this turbulent and exciting period, and a greater understanding of
the cultural production arising from it.
