The Oxford English Literary History is the new century's definitive
account of a rich and diverse literary heritage that stretches back
for a millennium and more.
Each of these groundbreaking volumes offers a leading scholar's
considered assessment of the authors, works, cultural traditions,
events, and the ideas that shaped the literary voices of their age.
The series will enlighten and inspire not only everyone studying,
teaching, and researching in English Literature, but all serious
readers.
This exciting new volume provides a freshly inclusive account of
literature in England in the period before, during, and after the
First World War. Chris Baldick places the modernist achievements of
Virginia Woolf, T. S. Eliot, and James Joyce within the rich
context of non-modernist writings across all major genres, allowing
"high" literary art to be read against the background of "low"
entertainment. Looking well beyond the modernist vanguard, Baldick
highlights the survival and renewal of realist traditions in these
decades of post-Victorian disillusionment. Ranging widely across
psychological novels, war poems, detective stories, satires, and
children's books, The Modern Movement provides a unique survey of
the literature of this turbulent time.
