Description

Explore a fresh interpretation of literary history with Modernism, Self-Creation, and the Maternal: The Mother's Son (Among the Victorians and Modernists). This scholarly work by Routledge examines the connection between modernist authors and the concept of the mother. By looking at the maternal relation, the text argues that the writing of major figures is shaped by an anxiety stemming from the violence done to the mother during the process of self-creation. This study moves away from traditional paternal influences to examine how the act of writing itself impacts this relationship. The book provides a deep analysis of works by Rousseau, Baudelaire, Poe, Rimbaud, Rilke, Joyce, and Beckett. It utilizes the work of Derrida to bring this modernist violence to light, offering a unique perspective for students and scholars of literature and historical fiction. This text is a significant addition to the study of how identity and maternal bonds influence the evolution of modernist thought.
