In this study, William Calin offers a comparative analysis of three twentieth-century minority-language literatures flourishing today in the United Kingdom and France - literatures written in Scots, Breton, and Occitan." "For each of the three literatures, Calin examines the major writers and their masterpieces in poetry, the novel, and theatre. His thesis is that all three literatures have evolved in a like manner, repudiating their sentimental, romantic folk heritage and undertaking to create in terms of European modernism and postmodernism. Combining a variety of modern critical approaches with theoretical and cultural considerations, Calin demonstrates the intrinsic importance of these literatures and their contribution to culture in both aesthetic and broadly human terms. His conclusion raises a number of questions: Is there a common form of narrative prevalent in minority cultures that is neither realism nor metafiction? Is the minority-language theatre limited to plots treating past history and the rural present? How can high modernist poetry express regional concerns yet attain universality? What constraints are imposed on writers working in minority languages, and what traits will be shared by minority literatures?" "Calin's pioneering study is the first comparative examination of the Scots, Breton, and Occitan achievements as parts of an international, European totality, underscoring in comparative terms their contribution to Europe as a whole."--Jacket 606 $aModernism (Literature)$zFrance 606 $aModernism (Literature)$zScotland 606 $aScots Gaelic literature$y20th century$xHistory and criticism 606 $aOccitan literature$y20th century$xHistory and criticism 606 $aBreton literature$y20th century$xHistory and criticism 607 $aBrittany (France)$xIn literature 607 $aProvence (France)$xIn literature 607 $aScotland$xIn literature 608 $aLivres numeriques. 608 $aCriticism, interpretation, etc. 608 $ae-books. 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aModernism (Literature) 615 0$aModernism (Literature) 615 0$aScots Gaelic literature$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aOccitan literature$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aBreton literature$xHistory and criticism. 676 $a809/.9112 700 $aCalin$b William$0202406 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910808113003321 996 $aMinority literatures and modernism$94105865 997 $aUNINA
