American Salons: Encounters with European Modernism 1885-1917
Crunden, Robert M. (Professor of History and Director of American Studies, Professor of History and Director of American Studies, University of Texas, Austin)
From New Orleans jazz to Hollywood films, American culture had barely begun its new role on the world stage as the 20th century opened. But in informal gatherings--known as salons--American artists and writers spread the ideas of European Modernism. This work provides a sweeping account of the American encounter with European Modernism up until World War I. 16 pages of plates.
