Description

Product Description The Late Modernist Novel explores how the novel reinvented itself for a Modernist age, a world riven by war and capitalist expansion. Seo Hee Im argues that the Anglophone novel first had to disassociate itself from the modern nation-state and, by extension, national history, which had anchored the genre from its very inception. Existing studies of modernism show how the novel responded to the crisis in the national idea. Polyglot high modernists experimented with cosmopolitanism and multilingualism on the level of style, while the late modernists retreated to a literary nativism. This book explores a younger generation of writers that incorporated empirical structures as theme and form to expand the genre beyond the nation-state. Book Description This study shows how the late modernist novel incorporated empirical structures as theme and form to expand the genre beyond the nation-state. About the Author Seo Hee Im is Assistant Professor of English at Hanyang University. Her work has appeared in MLQ, NOVEL, Modernism/modernity, and boundary 2. She has reviewed Korean culture for venues such as Public Books, the LA Review of Books, and The Guardian.
