The essays in Moving Modernisms: Motion, Technology, and Modernity,
written by renowned international scholars, open up the many
dimensions and arenas of modernist movement and movements: spatial,
geographical and political: affective and physiological; temporal
and epochal; technological, locomotive and metropolitan; aesthetic
and representational. Individual essays explore modernism's complex
geographies, focusing on Anglo-European modernisms while also
engaging with the debates engendered by recent models of world
literatures and global modernisms. From questions of space and
place, the volume moves to a focus on movement and motion, with
topics ranging from modernity and bodily energies to issues of
scale and quantity. The final chapters in the volume examine
modernist film and the moving image, and travel and transport in
the modern metropolis. 'Movement is reality itself', the
philosopher Henri Bergson wrote: the original and illuminating
essays in Moving Modernisms point in new ways to the realities, and
the fantasies, of movement in modernist culture.
