Nous aurons le plaisir de recevoir Andrew Thacker (Nottingham Trent), qui nous présentera son livre Modernism, Space and the City (Edinburgh Univeristy Press, 2019), dont voici la quatrième de couverture :
"This innovative book examines the development of modernist writing in four European cities: London, Paris, Berlin and Vienna. Focusing on how literary outsiders represented various spaces in these cities, it draws upon contemporary theories of affect and literary geography. Particular attention is given to the transnational qualities of modernist writing by examining writers whose view of the cities considered is that of migrants, exiles or strangers, including Mulk Raj Anand, Blaise Cendrars, Bryher, Joseph Conrad, T. S. Eliot, Christopher Isherwood, Hope Mirrlees, Noami Mitchison, Jean Rhys, Sam Selvon and Stephen Spender."
Discutant : Benoît Tadié
