Written for a general audience and students alike, the book explores modernism’s interaction with the shifting landscapes of the modern world, delving into topics such as market culture, politics, gender, race, and the culture of science and technology. Armstrong argues that modernism was less about revolt and more about engaging with and reflecting the changes in the world, particularly the trauma and disruption caused by the Great War.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThrough the examination of various literary movements—such as Imagism, Surrealism, and the Harlem Renaissance—the book highlights modernism's complex relationship with time, culture, and politics. Armstrong looks at the work of both canonical figures like Pound, Eliot, and Woolf, as well as lesser-known writers like Mary Butts, Muriel Rukeyser, and Sterling Brown. This wide-ranging study provides insights into modernist themes like obscurity, the study of consciousness, and modernism’s engagement with race, empire, and science.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eContents\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eModernity, Modernism and Time\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMapping Modernism\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eModernism, Mass Culture and the Market\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eReform!
