Gender in Modernism, conceived as a sequel to the now-classic
volume The Gender of Modernism, selects the best from the fifteen
years of feminist literary and modernist scholarship that has
appeared since the original's publication. Its fresh and diverse
texts examine new themes and reflect today's broader, more
inclusive understanding of modernism. The collection's modernist
works have been grouped into twenty-one thematic sections, with
theoretical introductions to the primary texts provided by the
scholars who have taken the lead in pushing both modernism and
gender in new directions. The selections enhance our understanding
of the complex intersections of gender with a large array of social
identifications, including global location, ideas of race, passing,
the queering of sexualities, medicine, and experiences of trauma
and war. It sees continental modernism in a different light, and
moves on to colonial and postcolonial sites. less-studied genres of
modernism, including writers on the left, suffragists, authors of
manifestos, mediums, authors dismissed as sentimental, artists,
dancers, dramatists, and filmmakers. Gender in Modernism will
quickly move from resource to springboard, furthering modernist
study well into the twenty-first century. Contributors include
