Product Description

This study places modernist texts alongside English political discourse between the death of Victoria and the end of the Great War. Peppis traces the impact of nation and empire on the avant-garde, arguing that Vorticism, England's foremost avant-garde movement, used nationalism to advance literature and avant-garde literature to advance empire.
