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.
