Modern American Literature and the New Twentieth Century seeks to critically question boundaries and concepts that have come to define the production, reception and appropriation of modern American literature. Its focus on technique looks both inwards to the craft and form of writing, and outwards to interdisciplinary approaches to literary production within a matrix of cultural practices. Focusing on perspectives that help to better understand the shifting aesthetic, historical, geographical and ideological values of the terms ‘new’ and ‘modern’, this series takes a revisionist approach to twentieth-century literary production in the United States.
