Description

Writing the City: Urban Visions and Literary Modernism provides a fresh perspective on the traditional transatlantic axis of urban modernism. While many studies focus solely on the London-Paris-New York connection, this work challenges that narrow view by examining other vital centers that have shaped metropolitan identities and cultural discourses. In this volume, Desmond Harding explores how James Joyce's internationalist vision of Dublin creates powerful cultural tropes. The text examines how these visions reconceive the modern city as a moral phenomenon across transcultural and transhistorical terms. By analyzing the works of both Joyce and John Dos Passos, Harding investigates the significant contributions these authors have made to our understanding of urban life. This book is an essential resource for readers interested in literary criticism and cultural theory. It offers a deep look into how metropolitan identities are constructed through literature and how different urban centers influence global modernism.
