Description

Explore a new perspective on the relationship between G.K. Chesterton and the world of literary modernism. Historically, scholars viewed the connection between Chesterton and modernist writers as one of mutual hostility. This view was based on Chesterton's support for popular culture compared to the elite aesthetic focus of the modernist movement. In this book, Shallcross challenges that traditional binary narrative. The text provides a deep look at the complexity and ambivalence of how Chesterton engaged with modernism. It also examines the reciprocal fascination between Chesterton and leading modernist figures. This work is part of the Literary Texts and the Popular Marketplace series, offering a fresh way to study parody, performance, and the role of popular culture in literary history.
