Modernist art and literature sought to engage with the ideas of
different cultures without eradicating the differences between
them. In Modernism, Imperialism and the Historical Sense, Paul
Stasi explores the relationship between high modernist aesthetic
forms and structures of empire in the twentieth century. Stasi's
text offers new readings of James Joyce, Ezra Pound, T. S. Eliot
and Virginia Woolf by situating their work within an early moment
of globalization. By combining the insights of Marxist
historiography, aesthetic theory and postcolonial criticism,
Stasi's careful analysis reveals how these authors' aesthetic forms
responded to, and helped shape, their unique historical moment.
Written with a wide readership in mind, this book will appeal
especially to scholars of British and American literature as well
as students of literary criticism and postcolonial studies.
