Offering a new approach to the intersection of literature and
philosophy, Modernist Idealism contends that certain models of
idealist thought require artistic form for their full development
and that modernism realizes philosophical idealism in aesthetic
form. This comparative view of modernism employs tools from
intellectual history, literary analysis, and philosophical
critique, focusing on the Italian reception of German idealist
thought from the mid-1800s to the Second World War. Modernist
Idealism intervenes in ongoing debates about the nineteenth- and
twentieth-century resurgence of materialism and spiritualism, as
well as the relation of decadent, avant-garde, and modernist
production. Michael J. Subialka aims to open new discursive space
for the philosophical study of modernist literary and visual
culture, considering not only philosophical and literary texts but
also early cinema. The author's main contention is that, in various
media and with sometimes radically different political and cultural
aims, a host of modernist artists and thinkers can be seen as
sharing in a project to realize idealist philosophical worldviews
in aesthetic form.
