Sweet Air: Modernism, Regionalism, and American Popular Song
ISBN: 9780252078927 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Sweet Air rewrites the history of early twentieth-century pop music in modernist terms. Tracking the evolution of popular regional genres such as blues, country, folk, and rockabilly in relation to the growth of industry and consumer culture, Edward P. Comentale shows how this music became a vital means of exploring the new and often overwhelming feelings brought on by modern life. Comentale examines these rural genres as they translated the traumas of local experience--the racial violence of the Delta, the mass exodus from the South, the Dust Bowl of the Texas panhandle--into sonic form....

Modernism, Cultural Production, and the British Avant-Garde
ISBN: 9780521120975 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Exposing the links between art, literature and early twentieth-century capitalism, Edward Comentale demonstrates how apparently progressive avant-garde movements, in their celebration of individualism, competition and labor, collaborated with a market defined by a monstrous increase in production and consumption. Comentale's interdisciplinary study examines art and sculpture as well as writing by Virginia Woolf and T.S. Eliot, among others, in the light of psychoanalytic, economic and political theory. This book will be of interest to scholars of literary and cultural modernism.

They have stalked the horizons of our culture, wreaked havoc on moribund concepts of dead and not dead, threatened our sense of identity, and endangered our personal safety. Now zombies have emerged from the lurking shadows of society's fringes to wander the sacred halls of the academy, feasting on tender minds and hurling rot across our intellectual landscape.

T.E. Hulme and the Question of Modernism
ISBN: 9780754640882 / Angielski / Twarda / 2006 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Though only 34 years old at the time of his death in 1917, T. E. Hulme had already taken his place at the center of pre-war London's advanced intellectual circles. His work as poet, critic, philosopher, aesthetician, and political theorist helped define several major aesthetic and political movements, including imagism and Vorticism. Despite his influence, however, the man T. S. Eliot described as 'classical, reactionary, and revolutionary' has until very recently been neglected by scholars, and "T. E.
