The period from the 1870s to the 1920s was marked by an interplay
between nationalisms and internationalisms, culminating in the
First World War, on the one hand, and the creation of the League of
Nations, on the other. The arts were central to this debate,
contributing both to the creation of national traditions and to the
emergence of ideas, objects and networks that forged connections
between nations or that enabled internationalists to imagine a
different world order altogether. The essays presented here explore
the ways in which the arts operated internationally during this
crucial period of nation-making, and how they helped to challenge
national conceptions of citizenship, society, homeland and native
tongue. The collection arises from the AHRC-funded research network
Internationalism and Cultural Exchange, 1870-1920 (ICE; 2009-2014)
and its enquiry into the histories of cultural internationalism and
their historiographical implications. This collection has been
edited by members of the ICE network convened by Grace Brockington
and Sarah Victoria Turner.
