4.9/5 (22196 ratings)

Description:(Rear cover) Using the dark, mythic image of the Greek God, resurrected by Nietzsche at the last century's close, as the prototype of the modern spirit in literature, Mr. Spears attempts an inclusive definition of modernism as word, idea, and historical movement. He explores in particular the "original modernism" first manifest in American and British poetry about 1909, and its relation to later currents in literature and in the other arts. His interest is in the widening of perspectives and in cultural synthesis, and his chief concern is with showing the relation of poetry to the mainstream of contemporary culture.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
