About this product

Product Information

Networks of Modernism offers a new understanding of American modernist aesthetics and introduces the idea that networks were central to how American moderns thought about their culture in their dramatically changing milieu. Through readings of the works of Randolph Bourne, Jean Toomer, Anita Loos, John Dos Passos, and Nathanael West, Networks of Modernism positions the network as the defining figure of American modernist aesthetics and explores its use as a conceptual tool used to think through the rapid changes in American society.

Reviews
" Networks of Modernism presents a new paradigm for literary study, one in which a keyword, 'networks,' compels oversight across the socio-cultural, commercial, and technological realms within which the writers under discussion lived and worked. It thus contributes to a substantial body of scholarship that has cast the US literature of that era in terms of discontinuous experiences of time and space; to size per se as the skyscraper soared while anthropologists discovered pygmies; to the machine (whether the automobile or industrial facility) and its tempos; to speed; to motion pictures. Wesley Beal convincingly makes the case that networks were an important part of this, and were an overriding and governing literary paradigm from the 1910s through the 1930s."--Cecelia Tichi, author, Shifting Gears: Technology, Literature, Culture in Modernist America, "Wesley Beal's exciting book brings a welcome theoretical richness to the study of American modernism, and his overall approach, at once formally rigorous and socially grounded, invigorates and extends longstanding debates on the connections between aesthetics and politics, and between modernism and postmodernism. Writers like Toomer, Loos, and Dos Passos emerge in a fresh and striking light, newly urgent figures for our radically interconnected and unsettled world. An inventive and highly readable work of criticism."--Robert Seguin, author, Around Quitting Time: Work and Middle-Class Fantasy in American Fiction, " Networks of Modernism  presents a new paradigm for literary study, one in which a keyword, 'networks,' compels oversight across the socio-cultural, commercial, and technological realms within which the writers under discussion lived and worked. It thus contributes to a substantial body of scholarship that has cast the US literature of that era in terms of discontinuous experiences of time and space; to size per se as the skyscraper soared while anthropologists discovered pygmies; to the machine (whether the automobile or industrial facility) and its tempos; to speed; to motion pictures.

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
