The Whole Machinery: The Rural Modern in Cultures of the U.S. South, 1890-1946 - The New Southern Studies Series
Benjamin S. Child

Expanding on Walter Benjamin's notion of die Moderne, this book explores representations of people and places, objects and occasions, that reverse that trajectory, demonstrating how modernizing agents move in a contrary direction as well.
