Finn Jensen analyzes Miller in the light of European modernism, in particular considering the many impulses Miller received in Paris. Jensen draws on theories of urban modernity to connect Miller?s narratives of a male protagonist alone in a modern metropolis with his time in Paris where he experienced a self-discovery as a writer. The book highlights several sources of inspiration for Miller including Nietzsche, Rimbaud, Hamsun, Strindberg and the American Transcendentalists. Jensen considers the key movements of modernity and analyzes their importance for Miller, studying Eschatology, the Avant-Garde, Dada, Surrealism, Expressionism, and Anarchism. . 606 $aLiterature, Modern$x20th century 606 $aAmerica$xLiteratures 606 $aEurope$xHistory$x1492- 606 $aCities and towns$xHistory 606 $aTwentieth-Century Literature 606 $aNorth American Literature 606 $aHistory of Modern Europe 606 $aUrban History 615 0$aLiterature, Modern$x20th century. 615 0$aAmerica$xLiteratures. 615 0$aEurope$xHistory$x1492-. 615 0$aCities and towns$xHistory. 615 14$aTwentieth-Century Literature. 615 24$aNorth American Literature. 615 24$aHistory of Modern Europe. 615 24$aUrban History. 676 $a818.5209 676 $a940.903 700 $aJensen$b Finn$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0933964 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910484541103321 996 $aHenry Miller and Modernism$92844053 997 $aUNINA
