Description

The Routledge Introduction to American Modernism offers a comprehensive exploration of one of American literature's most transformative periods. This lucid guide traces the modernist era through its essential historical contexts-technology, religion, economy, class, gender and immigration-whilst examining how these forces shaped major authors and texts. Wagner-Martin draws on decades of scholarship to analyse poetry, drama, fiction and life writing, helping readers understand how modernist writers forged innovative new approaches and established a distinctly American literary identity. Perfect for students and literary enthusiasts seeking deeper insight into the period's significance and its enduring influence on contemporary literature.

Key Features

The Routledge Introduction covers technology, religion, economy, class, gender and immigration as key contexts for understanding American modernism.

Wagner-Martin's analysis spans multiple genres including poetry, drama, fiction and life writing from the modernist period.

This comprehensive guide introduces readers to significant authors and texts whilst explaining the historical forces that shaped their work.

The book begins slightly earlier than many modernism guides, offering a broader view of the period's development and emergence.
