The Cambridge Companion to American Modernism provides a
comprehensive and authoritative overview of American literary
modernism from 1890 to 1939. These original essays by twelve
distinguished scholars of international reputation offer critical
overviews of the major genres, literary culture, and social
contexts that define the current state of Modern American
literature and cultural studies. Among the diverse topics covered
are nationalism, race, gender and the impact of music and visual
arts on literary modernism, as well as overviews of the
achievements of American modernism in fiction, poetry and drama.
The book concludes with a chapter on modern American criticism. An
essential reference guide to the field, the Companion offers
readers a chronology of key events and publication dates covering
the first half of the twentieth century in the United States, and a
bibliography of further reading organized by chapter topics.
