Schleifer argues that this transition in the late nineteenth and early twentieth century expresses itself centrally in an altered conception of temporality. He examines this period's remarkable breaks with the past in literature, music, and the arts more generally. Whereas Enlightenment thought sees time as a homogenous, neutral medium, in which events and actions take place, post-Enlightenment thought sees time as discontinuous and inexorably bound up with both the subjects and events that seem to inhabit it. This fundamental change of perception, Schleifer argues, takes place across disciplines as varied as physics, economics and philosophy. Schleifer's study engages with the work of writers and thinkers as varied as George Eliot, Walter Benjamin, Einstein and Russell, and offers a powerful reassessment of the politics and culture of modernism.Modernism & TimeModernism (Literature)Literature, Modern20th centuryHistory and criticismLiterature, Modern19th centuryHistory and criticismConsumption (Economics)History20th centuryConsumption (Economics)History19th centuryCivilization, Modern20th centuryCivilization, Modern19th centuryLiterature and historyLiterature and scienceTime in literatureModernism (Literature)Literature, ModernHistory and criticism.Literature, ModernHistory and criticism.Consumption (Economics)HistoryConsumption (Economics)HistoryCivilization, ModernCivilization, ModernLiterature and history.Literature and science.Time in literature.809/.9112Schleifer Ronald156180UkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910783060203321Modernism and time3778015UNINA
