Modernism and the Ordinary
Olson, Liesl (Harper-Schmidt Fellow and Assistant Professor, Harper-Schmidt Fellow and Assistant Professor, University of Chicago)
Modernism and the Ordinary overturns conventional accounts of the modernist period as primarily drawn toward the new, the transcendent, and the extraordinary. Liesl Olson shows how modernist writers were preoccupied, instead, with the unselfconscious actions of everyday life, even in times of political crisis and war.
