Description

Explore a unique chapter of Canadian history with The Last Ulysseans: Culture and Modernism in Montreal. Published by Academica Press, this book examines the vibrant urban environment of 1930s Montreal. During the Great Depression, a specific group of people formed a creative salon that met weekly at the home of artist John Lyman. This work follows these individuals as they identified with the avant-garde movement, seeking to change the world through modernism. The group was not only defined by their art but also by their support for left-wing causes during a period of global turmoil. Written by Molly Pulver Ungar, Ph.D., an Associate Professor of History (ret.) from the University of the Fraser Valley and York University, this book provides a detailed look at the social and artistic connections that shaped Montreal's cultural landscape. It is an essential read for those interested in the history of Canadian art, modernism, and the social movements of the early 20th century.
