Modernist Transformations

Description

Modernist writers wanted to ‘Make it new, make it strange, make it dance’. This course focuses on Modernist texts from the first half of the twentieth century, tracing in the literature, art and other cultural productions of that period the development of ideas and techniques still relevant to how we write, think and ‘make it new’ today.
