WiSe 18/19: Minor Modernists
Ulla Haselstein; Andreas Mahler
Kommentar
Modernism is characterized by some big names such as James Joyce, Virginia Woolf, Henry James, T.S. Eliot, Ezra Pound, Wallace Stevens, William Carlos Williams, or Gertrude Stein but there are also some ‘minor’ authors who definitely belong into the picture such as, e.g., T.E. Hulme, H.D.
(Hilda Doolittle), e.e. cummings, Marianne Moore, Amy Lowell, or Stevie Smith. The seminar will discuss those ‘minor modernists’ with a view to exploring their share in the modernist project as well as to taking a deep look into the specificity of the production, reception and canonization processes regarding their language work. Topics to be addressed will be the publication in ‘little magazines’ (drawing on the JFKI archive), the communication form of the ‘network’ and the craze about ‘isms’.
Participants are asked to familiarize themselves with the basic tenets of modernism before the seminar begins and preferably also to develop some specified research interest in terms of authors/topics that can be used as input for seminar planning and discussion.
