Ideographic Modernism offers a critical account of the ideograph
(Chinese writing as imagined in the West) as a modernist invention.
Through analyses of works by Claudel, Pound, Kafka, Benjamin,
Segalen, and Valery, among others, Christopher Bush traces the
interweaving of Western modernity's ethnographic and technological
imaginaries, in which the cultural effects of technological media
assumed "Chinese" forms, even as traditional representations of
"the Orient" lived on in modernist-era responses to media. The book
also makes a methodological argument, demonstrating new ways of
recovering the generally overlooked presence of China in the text
of Western modernism.
