Laura Marcus is one of the leading literary critics of modernist
literature and culture. Dreams of Modernity: Psychoanalysis,
Literature, Cinema covers the period from around 1880 to 1930, when
modernity as a form of social and cultural life fed into the
beginnings of modernism as a cultural form. Railways, cinema,
psychoanalysis and the literature of detection - and their impact
on modern sensibility - are four of the chief subjects explored.
Marcus also stresses the creativity of modernist women writers,
including H. D., Dorothy Richardson and Virginia Woolf. The
overriding themes of this work bear on the understanding of the
early twentieth century as a transitional age, thus raising the
question of how 'the moderns' understood the conditions of their
own modernity.
