Modernism both influenced and was fascinated by the rhetorical and
aesthetic manifestations of fascism. In examining how four artists
and writers represented fascist leaders, Annalisa Zox-Weaver aims
to achieve a more complex understanding of the modernist political
imagination. She examines how photographer Lee Miller, filmmaker
Leni Riefenstahl, writer Gertrude Stein and journalist Janet
Flanner interpret, dramatize and exploit Hitler, Goering and
Petain. Within their own artistic medium, each of these modernists
explore confrontations between private and public identity, and
historical narrative and the construction of myth. This study makes
use of extensive archival material, such as letters, photographs,
journals, unpublished manuscripts and ephemera, and includes ten
illustrations. This interdisciplinary perspective opens up wider
discussions of the relationship between artists and dictators,
modernism and fascism, and authority and representation.
