Part of a series introducing major aspects of British and American literature and culture to international audiences, this volume synthesizes current academic scholarship on modernism. It
provides an introduction to key authors, texts, and historical and cultural contexts; discusses major concepts and topics; reviews critical approaches and changes in the canon; and provides
case studies in reading major literary and theoretical texts. It also includes an annotated bibliography that includes selected websites, a timeline, and a glossary of critical terms.
