Modernism and the New Spain - Britain, Cosmopolitan Europe, and Literary History

Informationen zum Autor Gayle Rogers is Associate Professor of English at the University of Pittsburgh. Klappentext How and why did a country seen as remote! backwards! and barely European become a pivotal site for reinventing the continent after the Great War? Modernism and the New Spain argues that the "Spanish problem" - the nation's historically troubled relationship with Europe - provided an animating impulse for interwar literary modernism and for new conceptions of cosmopolitanism. Drawing on works in a variety of genres! Gayle Rogers reconstructs an archive ofcross-cultural exchanges to reveal the mutual constitution of two modernist movements - one in Britain! the other in Spain! and stretching at key moments in between Ireland and the Americas.
