Inhalt: This course will look at literary modernism at the beginning of the twentieth century and investigate its development, as well as the themes and techniques associated with it. Modernism as a cultural and artistic movement will be examined within historical context and its precursors will be traced through earlier literary genres and publications. Students will examine traditional texts of classical ‘high modernism’ next to lesser known works for comparison, and will also consider newer, more contemporary approaches to modernism which allow for a wider reading and application of these texts in the twenty-first century.
