Modernist Women Writers and American Social Engagement explores the
role of social and political engagement by women writers in the
development of American modernism. Examining a diverse array of
genres by both canonical modernists and underrepresented writers,
this collection uncovers an obscured strain of modernist activism.
Each chapter provides a detailed cultural and literary analysis,
revealing the ways in which modernists' politically and socially
engaged interventions shaped their writing. Considering issues such
as working class women's advocacy, educational reform, political
radicalism, and the global implications for American literary
production, this book examines the complexity of the relationship
between creating art and fostering social change. Ultimately, this
collection redefines the parameters of modernism while also
broadening the conception of social engagement to include both
readily acknowledged social movements as well as less recognizable
forms of advocacy for social change.
