This book offers an account of the development and significance of
the writer and painter Wyndham Lewis to the history of
Anglo-American modernism as well as to that modernism's internal
critique. This book offers an introduction to the work of Wyndham
Lewis, one of the most important of the Anglo-American modernists,
who has until recently been neglected. It traces Lewis's
influential involvement in the Vorticist movement; his commitment
to early avant-gardism; his relations with figures such as Pound,
Eliot and Joyce; and his gradual movement away from modernism
towards a theory of satire. Lewis was also significant as a
cultural critic and a professional controversialist. This book
explores his polemical views on gender, sexuality, politics, and
society, the commodification of culture, subjectivity, and
aesthetics. It concludes with a discussion of Lewis's importance to
the current critical reevaluation of literary modernism.
