Download or read book The Letters of Wyndham Lewis written by W. K. Rose and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-10-31 with total page 526 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1963 and edited by an authority on Wyndham Lewis (whom he also knew personally) this volume made available for the first time over 500 letters of Wyndham Lewis, who for half a century was a dynamic force among English artists and intellectuals. Culturally, Lewis played the dual role of innovator and iconoclast. Lewis’s letters show the wide range of his interests as well as his great verbal energy and unrelenting intellect. Lewis knew most of the significant artists and writers of his time and some of them – Augustus John, Pound, Eliot and Joyce were his lifelong friends and chief correspondents. Regardless of to whom he was writing, he displayed his intense awareness of the personalities and currents around him.
Download or read book Wyndham Lewis s Cultural Criticism and the Infrastructures of Patronage written by Nathan O’Donnell and published by Liverpool University Press. This book was released on 2020-07-02 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wyndham Lewis was both a serious proponent and forthright critic of modernism. His assault upon his contemporaries foreshadowed the twenty-first century scholarly interest in the networks, professions, and coteries – rather than the myths and heroics – of modernism. Lewis, after a long period of neglect, now sits increasingly at the heart of a revised field of modernist studies. This book explores Lewis’s cultural criticism as a valuable body of writing which posed questions that have yet to be answered about subsidy and the function of the artist, about professionalism and ethics, about who should pay for the arts, and what the artist’s obligations should be in return. It is the first book-length study of this body of critical writing, through which Lewis articulated the central and most lasting of his critical preoccupations: the question of how the work of the artist is to be valued, and the artist to be paid, in a professionalised society. This book makes an important contribution to the long overdue reassessment of a complex, contrarian figure, spanning the disciplines of literature and the visual arts, who asked pressing questions about the role and status of the artist, and ultimately about the value (economic, civic, political) of the work of art.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Modernism's Other Work challenges our view of relationships between aesthetic autonomy and the world of daily life--a conjuncture that Lisa Siraganian demonstrates has often been misunderstood in critical studies of modernism.

Download or read book The Agon of Modernism written by Anne Quéma and published by Bucknell University Press. This book was released on 1999 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Lewis's political writings present ambiguities: his stated belief in the autonomy of art from life is contradicted by other statements he made and by his critical analyses of writers; and his political writings blur any a priori generic distinction between art and non-art. Given this blurring between art and life, artistic genre and non-artistic genre, Quema claims that Lewis's political texts present characteristics usually attributed to avant-gardism. However, this radicalism has to be balanced against Lewis's conservatism. Thus his political writings can be read as allegories with two pragmatic aims: to organize the life of the polis from an artistic standpoint and to persuade the reader to adhere to authoritarian politics."--BOOK JACKET.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The late modernists were the ones who let down the side; they saw the wave of the future, the erosion of literary and political borders, and they let the world in and so distinguished themselves from the refinements of the early modernists. This is the first book to make this fascinating distinction and to highlight this aspect of intellectual history and to situate Mina Loy, Djuna Barnes, Wyndham Lewis, and Samuel Beckett at this critical juncture.
