Living Moment - Modernism in a Broken World

Informationen zum Autor Jeffrey Hart is a cultural critic, professor emeritus of English at Dartmouth College, essayist, and columnist who lives in New Hampshire, United States. Klappentext In the spirit of Lionel Trilling, Edmund Wilson, and Susan Sontag, the renowned literary critic Jeffrey Hart writes The Living Moment, a close reading of literature as it intersects with the political. Hart's book is an even-handed guide for anyone toddling into the mists of the modernist moment, effortlessly moving between such modernist monuments as Eliot's 'The Waste Land', Hemingway's 'A Farewell to Arms', Mann's 'Doctor Faustus', and Fitzgerald's 'The Great Gatsby'.
