DESCRIPTION
The modernist movement rose in response to the social, political, and technological changes from the turn of the 20th century and has been commonly characterized as focusing on individual subjectivity and psychology. More recent research has turned its attention to the body and its position in a material environment, which has equally pre-occupied modernists who explored diverse forms of embodiment. This seminar will inquire into modes of embodiment including racialised, gendered, and disabled bodies in the work of the main modernist authors, alongside marginalized voices.
