About this Series

Refiguring Modernism features cutting edge interdisciplinary approaches to
the study of art, literature, science,
and cultural history. With an eye to
the different modernisms emerging
throughout the world during the
twentieth century and beyond, we seek
to publish scholarship that engages
creatively with canonical and eccentric
works alike, bringing fresh concepts and original research to bear on modernist cultural production, whether aesthetic, social, or epistemological. What does it mean to study modernism in a global context characterized at once by decolonization and nation-building; international cooperation and conflict; changing ideas about subjectivity and identity; new understandings of language, religion, poetics, and myth; and new paradigms for science, politics, and religion? What did modernism offer artists, writers, and intellectuals? How do we theorize and historicize modernism? How do we rethink its forms, its past, and its futures?
