Modernism's Mythic Pose: Gender, Genre, Solo Performance - Modernist Literature and Culture
Preston, Carrie J. (Assistant Professor of English and Women's, Gender, and Sexuality Studies, Assistant Professor of English and Women's, Gender, and Sexuality Studies, Boston University)
Modernism's Mythic Pose recovers the tradition of Delsartism, a popular international movement that promoted bodily and vocal solo performances, particularly for women. This strain of classical-antimodernism shaped dance, film, and poetics.
