Download or read book Man ist nat rlich niemals man selbst ber Gertrude Steins Autobiography of Alice B Toklas written by Katharina Rose and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2009 with total page 25 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2007 im Fachbereich Germanistik - Neuere Deutsche Literatur, Note: keine, Universität Leipzig (Institut für klassische Philologie und Komparatistik), 17 Quellen im Literaturverzeichnis, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Die Autobiographie von Gertrude Stein hat den Autobiographischen Pakt von Lejeune gesprengt! Die modernen Verfahren die Gertrude Stein in der "Autobiography of Alice B. Toklas" angewendet hat werden in dieser Arbeit beschrieben und hinterfragt. Gertrude Stein, die als das jüngste von fünf Kindern einer gutbürgerlichen, deutsch-jüdischen Familie am 3.2. 1874 in Allegheny (Pensylvania) geboren wurde, wird auch heute noch gerne als "Die Mutter der Moderne" bezeichnet. Ihre Literatur war blank, assoziativ, abrupt und sie verbannte größtenteils, ähnlich wie James Joyce, die Interpunktion aus ihren Texten, um ihnen so einen eigenen Rhythmus zu geben. Der neue Umgang mit Literatur, mit Sprache, wie sie ihn entwickelte, stieß immer wieder auf heftige Kritik, die erst nach dem Erscheinen der Autobiography of Alice B. Toklas, ihrem erfolgreichstem Werk, allmählich nachließ. Ihr wurde unter anderem der Vorwurf gemacht, ihr Werk sei unzugänglich und sie sei unfähig mit dem klassischen Englisch umzugehen.

Book Le Tumulte Noir

    Book Details:
  • Author : Jody Blake
  • Publisher : Penn State Press
  • Release : 1999-01-01
  • ISBN : 9780271017532
  • Pages : 232 pages

Download or read book Le Tumulte Noir written by Jody Blake and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 1999-01-01 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jody Blake demonstrates in this book that although the impact of African-American music and dance in France was constant from 1900 to 1930, it was not unchanging. This was due in part to the stylistic development and diversity of African-American music and dance, from the prewar cakewalk and ragtime to the postwar Charleston and jazz. Successive groups of modernists, beginning with the Matisse and Picasso circle in the 1900s and concluding with the Surrealists and Purists in the 1920s, constructed different versions of la musique and la danse negre. Manifested in creative and critical works, these responses to African-American music and dance reflected the modernists' varying artistic agendas and historical climates.

Book The Futurist Moment

    Book Details:
  • Author : Marjorie Perloff
  • Publisher : University of Chicago Press
  • Release : 2003-12-03
  • ISBN : 9780226657387
  • Pages : 344 pages

Download or read book The Futurist Moment written by Marjorie Perloff and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2003-12-03 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume examines the flourishing of Futurist aesthetics in the European art and literature of the early twentieth century. Futurism was an artistic and social movement that was largely an Italian phenomenon, though there were parallel movements in Russia, England and elsewhere. The Futurists admired speed, technology, youth and violence, the car, the airplane and the industrial city, all that represented the technological triumph of humanity over nature. This work looks at the prose, visual art, poetry, and the manifestos of Futurists from Russia to Italy. The author reveals the Moment's impulses and operations, tracing its echoes through the years to the work of "postmodern" figures like Roland Barthes. This updated edition reexamines the Futurist Moment in the light of a new century, in which Futurist aesthetics seem to have steadily more to say to the present

Book Red Modernism

Download or read book Red Modernism written by Mark Steven and published by JHU Press. This book was released on 2017-12-21 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How did modernist poetry respond—both thematically and technically—to communism? In Red Modernism, Mark Steven asserts that modernism was highly attuned—and aesthetically responsive—to the overall spirit of communism. He considers the maturation of American poetry as a longitudinal arc, one that roughly followed the rise of the USSR through the Russian Revolution and its subsequent descent into Stalinism, opening up a hitherto underexplored domain in the political history of avant-garde literature. In doing so, Steven amplifies the resonance among the universal idea of communism, the revolutionary socialist state, and the American modernist poem. Focusing on three of the most significant figures in modernist poetry—Ezra Pound, William Carlos Williams, and Louis Zukofsky—Steven provides a theoretical and historical introduction to modernism’s unique sense of communism while revealing how communist ideals and references were deeply embedded in modernist poetry. Moving between these poets and the work of T. S. Eliot, Langston Hughes, Muriel Rukeyser, Gertrude Stein, Wallace Stevens, and many others, the book combines a detailed analysis of technical devices and poetic values with a rich political and economic context. Persuasively charting a history of the avant-garde modernist poem in relation to communism, beginning in the 1910s and reaching into the 1940s, Red Modernism is an audacious examination of the twinned history of politics and poetry.

Book Paradoxy of Modernism

Download or read book Paradoxy of Modernism written by Robert Scholes and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2008-10-01 with total page 311 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this lively, personal book, Robert Scholes intervenes in ongoing discussions about modernism in the arts during the crucial half-century from 1895 to 1945. While critics of and apologists for modernism have defined modern art and literature in terms of binary oppositions—high/low, old/new, hard/soft, poetry/rhetoric—Scholes contends that these distinctions are in fact confused and misleading. Such oppositions are instances of “paradoxy”—an apparent clarity that covers real confusion. Closely examining specific literary texts, drawings, critical writings, and memoirs, Scholes seeks to complicate the neat polar oppositions attributed to modernism. He argues for the rehabilitation of works in the middle ground that have been trivialized in previous evaluations, and he fights orthodoxy with such paradoxes as “durable fluff,” “formulaic creativity,” and “iridescent mediocrity.” The book reconsiders major figures like James Joyce while underscoring the value of minor figures and addressing new attention to others rarely studied. It includes twenty-two illustrations of the artworks discussed. Filled with the observations of a personable and witty guide, this is a book that opens up for a reader’s delight the rich cultural terrain of modernism.

Book Beckett and Modernism

Download or read book Beckett and Modernism written by Olga Beloborodova and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-04-13 with total page 299 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book of collected essays approaches Beckett’s work through the context of modernism, while situating it in the literary tradition at large. It builds on current debates aiming to redefine ‘modernism’ in connection to concepts such as ‘late modernism’ or ‘postmodernism’. Instead of definitively re-categorizing Beckett under any of these labels, the essays use his diverse oeuvre – encompassing poetry, criticism, prose, theatre, radio and film – as a case study to investigate and reassess the concept of ‘modernism after postmodernism’ in all its complexity, covering a broad range of topics spanning Beckett’s entire career. In addition to more thematic essays about art, history, politics, psychology and philosophy, the collection places his work in relation to that of other modernists such as T. S. Eliot, James Joyce, Wyndham Lewis, Gertrude Stein and Virginia Woolf, as well as to the literary canon in general. It represents an important contribution to both Beckett studies and modernism studies.
