Stretching beyond the Western canon and the literary scope of the
field, this volume reconsiders what ""modernism"" means by
exploring numerous local expressions of modernity around the globe.
Masks - both literal and metaphorical - play a role in each of
these artistic ventures, from Brazilian music to Chinese film to
Nigerian masquerade performance. These case studies show how masks
enable diverse artists and communities to grapple with deep
societal transformations caused by modern transnational forces. The
contributors challenge popular assumptions about what modernism
looks like and what modernity is.
