Although these modernist writers develop radically different models for social organization, their writings return again and again to issues of commonality, shared voice, and exchange of experience, particularly in relation to dominant discourses of gender and nationality. The writings of James, Proust, Woolf and Stein, she argues, not only inscribe early twentieth-century anxieties about race, ethnicity, nationality and gender, but confront them with demands for modern, cosmopolitan versions of community. This study seeks to revise theories of community and cosmopolitanism in light of their construction in narrative, and in particular it seeks to reveal the ways that modernist fiction can provide meaningful alternative models of community.Modernist Fiction, Cosmopolitanism & the Politics of CommunityAmerican fiction20th centuryHistory and criticismModernism (Literature)United StatesPolitics and literatureHistory20th centuryLiterature and societyHistory20th centuryCommunity life in literatureCosmopolitanismAmerican fictionHistory and criticism.Modernism (Literature)Politics and literatureHistoryLiterature and societyHistoryCommunity life in literature.Cosmopolitanism.813/.5209112Berman Jessica Schiff1961-1031205UkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910450529303321Modernist fiction, cosmopolitanism and the politics of community2448464UNINA
