Through broad surveys of discourses surrounding daily life, the 1923 Great Kanto Earthquake, urban renaissance, and the sexological rhetoric of love and lust, this study locates ideologies of gender, ethnicity, and nation that flourished in the 1920s. Mitchell then shows how the narrative and linguistic strategies of modernist texts interrogated the innocence of this language, discursively displacing the authority of their claims and disrupting their hold upon people's imagined relationship to daily life. Mitchell elaborates an alternative modernism that challenges the primacy of the Western European model by locating modernist subversion within the local historical developments of I-novel reading practices, commodity culture, and the Great KantoÌ Earthquake. But the book also helps to expand modernism studies into a more translational dialogue by identifying how modernist texts themselves exposed the global epistemology of East vs. West. By rehabilitating the original nexus between literature and society, Mitchell revives and affirms the essential pedagogical function of modernist fiction to make us aware of how our realities are constructed, and thus how those realities can be changed"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Japanese literature $y TaishoÌ period, 1912-1926 $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a Japanese literature $y ShoÌwa period, 1926-1989 $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a Modernism (Literature) $z Japan. 650 0 $a Literature and society $z Japan $x History $y 20th century. 650 7 $a Japanese literature $x ShoÌwa period. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01710988 650 7 $a Japanese literature $x TaishoÌ period. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01711084 650 7 $a Literature and society. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01000096 650 7 $a Modernism (Literature) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01024455 651 7 $a Japan. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204082 648 7 $a 1900-1999 $2 fast 655 7 $a Criticism, interpretation, etc. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411635 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 776 08 $i Online version: $a Mitchell, Arthur M. $t Disruptions of daily life $d Ithaca [New York] : Cornell University Press, 2020 $z 9781501752926 $w (DLC) 2020011027 830 0 $a Studies of the Weatherhead East Asian Institute, Columbia University. 830 0 $a Cornell East Asia series ; $v 202. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20220317021758.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=0C72D48E177D11EC850ADFAD22ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
