If it is no coincidence that the rise of the novel accompanied the expansion of empire in the eighteenth-century, then the historical conditions of fiction as the empire waned are equally pertinent. Peter Childs argues that modernist literary writing should be read in terms of its response and relationship to events overseas and that it should be seen as moving towards an emergent post-colonialism instead of struggling with a residual colonial past. Beginning by offering an analysis of the generational and gender conflict that spans art and empire in the period, Childs moves on to examine modernism's expression of a crisis of belief in relation to subjectivity, space, and time. Finally, he investigates the war as a turning point in both colonial relations and aesthetic experimentation. Each of the core chapters focuses on one key writer and discuss a range of others, including: Conrad, Lawrence, Kipling, Eliot, Woolf, Joyce, Conan Doyle and Haggard."--Bloomsbury Publishing. 410 0$aContinuum literary studies. 606 $aColonies in literature 606 $aEnglish fiction$y19th century$xHistory and criticism 606 $aEnglish fiction$y20th century$xHistory and criticism 606 $aImperialism in literature 606 $aLiterature and history$zCommonwealth countries 606 $aModernism (Literature) 606 $aPostcolonialism in literature 606 $2Literary studies: from c 1900 - 615 0$aColonies in literature. 615 0$aEnglish fiction$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aEnglish fiction$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aImperialism in literature. 615 0$aLiterature and history 615 0$aModernism (Literature) 615 0$aPostcolonialism in literature. 676 $a823.91209112 700 $aChilds$b Peter$f1962-$0165610 801 0$bUtOrBLW 801 1$bUtOrBLW 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910789685703321 996 $aModernism and the post-colonial$93835270 997 $aUNINA LEADER 02752nam 2200781Ia 450 001 9910963641203321 005 20241225110130.0 010 $a9781446264355 010 $a1446264351 010 $a9780761952381 010 $a0761952381 010 $a9781446233627 010 $a1446233626 010 $a9781283881111 010 $a128388111X 035 $a(CKB)2550000000103888 035 $a(EBL)1024133 035 $a(OCoLC)823717230 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000657805 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11456195 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000657805 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10680937 035 $a(PQKB)10168601 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC1024133 035 $a(OCoLC)797836165 035 $a(StDuBDS)EDZ0000063843 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL1024133 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10567141 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL419361 035 $a(FINmELB)ELB136502 035 $a205801 035 $a(FR-PaCSA)88874805 035 $a(FRCYB88874805)88874805 035 $a(EXLCZ)992550000000103888 100 $a19980915d1999 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur||||||||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aOrganization and aesthetics /$fAntonio Strati 205 $a1st ed. 210 $aLondon ;$aThousand Oaks $cSAGE$d1999 210 1$aLondon ;$aThousand Oaks :$cSAGE,$d1999. 215 $a1 online resource (216 p.) 300 $aDescription based upon print version of record. 311 08$a9781446217191 311 08$a1446217191 311 08$a9780761952398 311 08$a076195239X 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references (p.[195]-207) and index. 327 $aCover; Contents; Acknowledgements; Introduction; Chapter 1 - Organizational Aesthetics, Experience and Plausibility; Chapter 2 - Aesthetic Knowledge of Organizational Action; Chapter 3 - The Elusiveness of Organizational Aesthetics; Chapter 4 - The Beautiful in Organizational Life; Chapter 5 - Artefacts, Form and Aesthetic Categories; Chapter 6 - Conclusions; References; Index 330 8 $aOrganization and aesthetics shows how aesthetic understanding of organizations can extend our knowledge and sharpen our insights into many of the micro-processes that shape organizational behaviour. 606 $aAesthetics 606 $aOrganizational behavior$xPhilosophy 606 $aSocial psychology 615 0$aAesthetics. 615 0$aOrganizational behavior$xPhilosophy. 615 0$aSocial psychology. 676 $a302.35/01 700 $aStrati$b Antonio$0118113 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910963641203321 996 $aOrganization and aesthetics$9507744 997 $aUNINA
