Gerrard, Deborah. "In dialogue with English modernism : Storm Jameson's early formation as a writer, 1919-1931." Thesis, De Montfort University, 2010. http://hdl.handle.net/2086/4868.

Abstract:

After a period during which Storm Jameson’s restricted literary identity has been that of the politically engaged woman writer, critical interest in the intellectual and stylistic complexities of her work is now reviving. Yet Jameson’s background in early English modernism and the manner in which it enriches her writing continues to pass unnoticed. This thesis uncovers new evidence of Jameson’s immersion in the early English modernisms of Alfred Orage’s Leeds Arts Club and New Age journal and of Dora Marsden’s journals, the New Freewoman and the Egoist, as an avant-garde student before the Gre

Abstract:

In this thesis I argue for a repositioning of Edith Wharton’s short stories in relation to both the twentieth century and modernism. Whilst Wharton was acclaimed for her novels, I argue that the short story, the genre in which she felt most proficient as a writer, yet is still habitually overlooked by critics, presents Wharton at her most experimental and "renovat(ive)", to use her own words. I consider how the restrictive confines of the short story, both in terms of its brevity and commercial value, particularly in relation to the magazine market, were exploited by Wharton to her own advanta

Abstract:

This thesis considers the impact of German Expressionism on Anglo-American writers by focusing on the work of Wyndham Lewis and Djuna Barnes. Chapter One analyses Wassily Kandinsky's play Yellow Sound, and his theories of art, alongside Wyndham Lewis' Vorticist drama Enemy of the Stars. I trace similarities between the techniques used by both writers to develop awareness of spatial composition and non- representational form. Chapter Two rejoins Lewis in 1919 as he approaches the topic of art's potential to rehabilitate a war-torn society, and I argue that an examination of the work of Expressi

Abstract:

This dissertation examines how the Nyugat review played an essential role in the development of literary and cultural modernism in early twentieth century Hungary. My chief argument is that modern Hungarian literature and culture, under the auspices of Nyugat, are part of that Central European canon which had shaped some of the most influential literary and critical theories. The review nurtured over one-hundred and twenty writers, artists and intellectuals who left a lasting impact on Hungarian literature and culture. These authors are known as the Nyugat-generation, a term which I adopt as G

Abstract:

This thesis explores the political and social landscape of Burmese women from 1942 to 1962, focusing on three groups of women - writers, fighters, and prostitutes. It finds that although the roles of women - and of these three groups in particular - evolved substantially in this period, women remained essentially sidelined from the main political movements and events. Women fighters were drafted into the army during the latter stages of the war, essentially to undertake propaganda work while the men, the backbone of the resistance against the Japanese, went into hiding.

The Introduction argues for a feminist and deconstructionist treatment of biographical materials, and establishes the ontological and political connections between prefaces and books.

It does this with a view to finding out more about modernism's relationship with the mainstream - commercial publishers and their readers. Why is there a need for this type of study?

Abstract:

Despite having a rather weak family connection to Ireland, the American modernist poet Marianne Moore (1887-1972) described herself in a letter to Ezra Pound in 1919 as ‘Irish by descent’. This thesis relates Moore’s claim of Irish descent to her career as a publisher, poet and playwright, and argues that her decision to shape an Irish inheritance for herself was linked with her self-identification as an American poet. Chapter 1 discusses Moore’s self-confessed susceptibility to ‘Irish magic’ in relation to the increase in contributions from Irish writers during her editorship of The Dial maga

Abstract:

Spanish women writers that establish their literary careers early in twentieth century find themselves at an interesting historical crossroads as the world changes from an agrarian to an industrial paradigm. On one hand, this change leads to a strong current of traditionalism, to which most male writers adhere, as it offers the attractive idea of return to a pre-modern simplicity; on the other, this change opens up possibilities for social improvement and participation for those groups traditionally excluded from power. Embracing this change poses the opportunity for female subjects to reshape

The central question in these studies is whether inversion was ultimately beneficial or detrimental to the larger struggle for sexual equality and gay rights. This is an important question and key elements of the debate are reviewed. Sometimes lost in this discussion, however, is sexology’s influence on the creative process of differ
