An interdisciplinary reference source of the critical, cultural and
political practices associated with modernismMuch of the literary
and cultural theory developed throughout the twentieth century
relied on modernist texts and artefacts as both example and
paradigm. This Dictionary collects, categorises and intersects
literary, aesthetic, political and cultural terms that in one way
or another came into being through the debates, conflicts,
co-operations, experiments individual and collective that
characterised modernism. In concise entries from international
experts, it presents the terms, categories, concepts, tropes,
movements, forged through the modernist upheavals (at once
aesthetic and political), highlighting their genealogy, their
modernist 'newness', and their historical longevity.Key
FeaturesProvides new and authoritative definitions of the
revolutionary art, thinking and intellectual culture which
flourished in the opening decades of the last centuryDemonstrates
the ways in which modernism reconceptualised and realigned all
twentieth- century art forms while also formulating the critical
and cultural languages of that centuryShows that modernism, in
unique ways, already entailed its self-definition and articulated
its own critique
