Description

Discover a deep look into the life and work of one of the most influential cultural analysts of the 20th century. Originally published in 1990, Susan Sontag (Routledge Revivals): The Elegiac Modernist serves as the first book-length study of the renowned essayist, novelist, reviewer, and filmmaker. This work explores how modernism shaped Sontag's journey from Southern California to her influential years abroad in the 1950s. Author Sohnya Sayres examines the foundations of Sontag's massive body of work, including her famous writings like 'Notes on Camp' and 'Illness as Metaphor'. The study uncovers a unity of design and subject within Sontag's career, revealing ambitions that the author herself only recently acknowledged. This Routledge Revival edition is an essential resource for students and readers interested in literary theory, cultural criticism, and the history of modernist movements.
