Facing the uncertainty of Modernism, the treatment of #spectrality & #ghosts in works by #JosephConrad, #EMForster, #MaryButts, & #ElizabethBowen is analysed by Stephen Ross: "There is hope in these ghosts, not resignation"
"Fragmentary #Modernism" by Nora Goldschmidt asks: how did #ModernistLiterature & #VisualCulture engage with classical fragments (incl #EzraPound, #TSEliot, #HildaDoolittle, #RichardAldington, #JacobEpstein & #HenriGaudier-Brzeska) & shape our reception of #ClassicalAntiquity until today?
"Troubling Late #Modernism" by Doug Battersby analyses how #postwarnovel|s by #Nabokov, #SamuelBeckett, #ToniMorrison, #JohnBanville, #Coetzee & #EimearMcBride exploit & extend #modernist forms of narration, esp. at the opposition of #ethics & emotion
Stillness - an idea seemingly at odds with the ever-moving speed of #Modernism - is what Louise Hornby highlights in her unconventional reading of #ModernistLiterature & #VisualCulture such as #earlyphotography & #ModernistFilm
