Many modernist and avant-garde artists and authors were fascinated
by the occult movements of their day. This volume explores how
Occultism came to shape modernist art, literature, and film.
Individual chapters examine the presence and role of Occultism in
the work of such modernist luminaries as Rainer Maria Rilke, August
Strindberg, W.B. Yeats, Josephin Peladan and the artist Jan
Svankmaier, as well as in avant-garde film, post-war Greek
Surrealism, and Scandinavian Retrogardism. Combining the
theoretical and methodological foundations of the field of
Esotericism Studies with those of Literary Studies, Art History,
and Cinema Studies, this volume provides in-depth and nuanced
perspectives upon the relationship between Occultism and Modernism
in the Western arts from the nineteenth century to the present day.
