Book excerpt: "Deadlock: Pilgrimage Vol. 6" by Dorothy M. Richardson is the penultimate installment in her groundbreaking modernist novel collection, "Pilgrimage." This painting continues the introspective adventure of its protagonist, Miriam Henderson, thru the complexities of her existence and the evolving global round her. As Miriam grapples with the societal changes of the early 20th century, Richardson employs her different move-of-attention style to in detail explore the individual's mind and emotions. "Deadlock" affords a nuanced portrayal of Miriam's relationships, aspirations, and inner conflicts, delving into the demanding situations confronted by means of a girl navigating the moving landscapes of feminism, identity, and societal expectations. The name "Deadlock" shows a feel of stasis or deadlock, shooting the essence of Miriam's battle to reconcile her individuality with societal norms. Richardson's narrative prowess shines as she weaves collectively difficult layers of notion and experience, presenting readers with a bright and immersive literary revel in. As a pivotal quantity within the "Pilgrimage" collection, "Deadlock" contributes to Richardson's legacy as a pioneering modernist author, providing a profound exploration of the human psyche and the changing dynamics of a swiftly evolving global.

Download or read book Film 1900 written by Annemone Ligensa and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2009-10-05 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Essays examining the relationships between culture, film, and the audience around the turn of the twentieth century. The current digital revolution has sparked a renewed interest in the origins and trajectory of modern media, particularly in the years around 1900 when the technology was rapidly developing. This collection aims to broaden our understanding of early cinema as a significant innovation in media history. Joining traditional scholarship with fresh insights from a variety of disciplines, this book explains the aesthetic and institutional characteristics in early cinema within the context of the contemporary media landscape. It also addresses transcultural developments such as scientific revolutions, industrialization, urbanization, and globalization, as well as differing attitudes toward modernization. Film 1900 is an important reassessment of early cinema’s position in cultural history. “The capable Ligensa and Kreimeier invited a coterie of renowned Continental scholars and thinkers to reflect on issues of modernity and cinema by harking back to the fin de siècle. . . . Summing Up: Highly recommended. Graduate students, researchers, faculty.” —T. Lindval, Choice

Book Ordinary Matters

    Book Details:
  • Author : Lorraine Sim
  • Publisher : Bloomsbury Publishing USA
  • Release : 2016-10-20
  • ISBN : 1501314335
  • Pages : 224 pages

Download or read book Ordinary Matters written by Lorraine Sim and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2016-10-20 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shortlisted for the 2017 AUHE Prize for Literary Scholarship Ordinary Matters is the first major interdisciplinary study of the ordinary in modernist women's literature and photography. It examines how women photographers and writers including Helen Levitt, Lee Miller, Virginia Woolf and Dorothy Richardson envision the sphere of ordinary life in light of the social and cultural transformations of the period that shaped and often radically re-shaped it: for example, urbanism, instrumentalism, the Great Depression and war. Through a series of case studies that explore such topics as the street, domestic things, gesture and the face, Sim contends that the paradigmatic shifts that define early twentieth-century modernity not only inform modernist women's aesthetics of the everyday, but their artistic and ethical investments in that sphere. The everyday has been noted as a “keynote of the New Modernist Studies” (Todd Avery). Ordinary Matters comprises a vital contribution to recent scholarship on the topic and will be of value to scholars working in British and American modernism, multimedia modernisms, photography, twentieth-century literature, and critical and cultural histories of the everyday.

Book The Single Woman  Modernity  and Literary Culture

Download or read book The Single Woman Modernity and Literary Culture written by Emma Sterry and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-06-22 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book situates the single woman within the evolving landscape of modernity, examining how she negotiated rural and urban worlds, explored domestic and bohemian roles, and traversed public and private spheres. In the modern era, the single woman was both celebrated and derided for refusing to conform to societal expectations regarding femininity and sexuality. The different versions of single women presented in cultural narratives of this period—including the old maid, odd woman, New Woman, spinster, and flapper—were all sexually suspicious. The single woman, however, was really an amorphous figure who defied straightforward categorization. Emma Sterry explores depictions of such single women in transatlantic women’s fiction of the 1920s to 1940s. Including a diverse selection of renowned and forgotten writers, such as Djuna Barnes, Rosamond Lehmann, Ngaio Marsh, and Eliot Bliss, this book argues that the single woman embodies the tensions between tradition and progress in both middlebrow and modernist literary culture.

Book Feminism and the Postmodern Impulse

Download or read book Feminism and the Postmodern Impulse written by Magali Cornier Michael and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 1996-07-03 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Michael analyzes the intersections between feminist politics and postmodern aesthetics as demonstrated in recent Anglo-American fiction. While much has been written on various aspects of postmodernism and postmodern fiction and of feminism and feminist fiction, very little attention has been given to the postmodern aesthetic strategies that surface in post-World War II feminist fiction. Feminism and the Postmodern Impulse examines ways in which many widely read and acclaimed novels with feminist impulses engage and transform subversive aesthetic strategies usually associated with postmodern fiction to strengthen their feminist political edge. The author discusses many examples of recent feminist-postmodern fiction, and explores in greater depth Doris Lessing's The Golden Notebook, Marge Piercy's Woman on the Edge of Time, Margaret Atwood's The Handmaid's Tale, and Angela Carter's Nights at the Circus. She shows that feminist-postmodern fiction's emphasis on the material historical situation—the link to activist politics and commitment to enacting concrete changes in the world, and thus the need to reach a large reading public—often results in a blending and transformation of postmodern and realist aesthetic forms. Moreover, feminist fiction uses deconstructive strategies not only to disrupt the status quo but also to create a space for reconstruction, particularly of recreating new forms of female subjectivities and feminist aesthetics.

Book Pilgrimage

Download or read book Pilgrimage written by Dorothy Miller Richardson and published by Virago Press. This book was released on 1979 with total page 509 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Pilgrimage' was the first expression in English of what it is to be called 'stream of conciousness' technique, predating the work of both Joyce and Woolf, echoing that of Proust with whom Dorothy Richardson stands as one of the great innovatory figures of our time. These four volumes record in detail the life of Miriram Henderson. Through her experience - personal, spiritual, intellectual - Dorothy Richardson explores intensely what it means to be a woman, presenting feminine conciousness with a new voice, a new identity.

Book excerpt: From the INTRODUCTION by May Sinclair.I HAVE been asked to write a criticism of the novels of Dorothy Richardson. I do not know whether this essay is or is not going to be a criticism, for so soon as I begin to think what I shall say I find myself criticising criticism, wondering what is the matter with it and what, if anything, can be done to make it better, to make it alive. Only a live criticism can deal appropriately with a live art. And it seems to me that the first step towards life is to throw off the philosophic cant of the nineteenth century. I don't mean that there is no philosophy of Art, or that if there has been there is to be no more of it; I mean that it is absurd to go on talking about realism and idealism, or objective and subjective art, as if the philosophies were sticking where they stood in the eighties....
