But for that reason, it has also gone unexamined. As the archives, timeframes, and cultural contexts of global modernist studies proliferate, the field's rapport with close reading no longer appears self-evident or guaranteed--even though for countless students studying literary modernism still invariably means studying close reading. This authoritative collection of essays illuminates close reading's conceptual, institutional, and pedagogical genealogies as a means of examining its enduring potential. David James brings together a cast of world-renowned scholars to offer an account of some of the things we might otherwise know, and need to know, about the history of modernist theories of reading, before then providing a sense of how the futures for critical reading look different in light of the multiple ways in which modernism has been close read. Modernism and Close Reading responds to a contemporary climate of unprecedented reconstitution for the field: it takes stock of close reading's methodological possibilities in the wake of modernist studies' geographical, literary-historical, and interdisciplinary expansions; and it shows how the political, ethical, and aesthetic consequences of attending to matters of form complicate ideological preconceptions about the practice of formalism itself. By reassessing the intellectual commitments and institutional conditions that have shaped modernism in criticism as well as in the classroom, we are able to ask new questions about close reading that resonate across literary and cultural studies. Invigorating that critical venture, this volume enriches our vocabulary for addressing close reading's perpetual development and diversification."-- $c Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 650 0 $a Modernism (Literature) $x History and criticism. 650 7 $a Modernism (Literature) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01024455 655 7 $a Criticism, interpretation, etc. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411635 776 08 $i Electronic version:+ $t Modernism and close reading. $b First edition. $d Oxford, United Kingdom ; New York, NY : Oxford University Press, 2020 $z 9780191067044 $w (OCoLC)1153938259 700 1 $a James, David, $d 1979- $e editor. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20220317021111.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=EE9C74AE9F4211EBBB7E29A634ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
