Bringing together new accounts of the pulp horror writings of H.P.
Lovecraft and the rise of the popular early 20th-century religious
movements of American Pentecostalism and Social Gospel, Pentecostal
Modernism challenges traditional histories of modernism as a
secular avant-garde movement based in capital cities such as London
or Paris. Disrupting accounts that separate religion from
progressive social movements and mass culture, Stephen Shapiro and
Philip Barnard construct a new Modernism belonging to a history of
regional cities, new urban areas powered by the hopes and
frustrations of recently urbanized populations seeking a better
life. In this way, Pentecostal Modernism shows how this process of
urbanization generates new cultural practices including the
invention of religious traditions and mass-cultural forms.
