- Modernism and After: English Literature 1910-1939 John Smart Frontmatter More information Introduction All literary terms and periods are hard to define and ‘modernism’ is harder than most. An extra difficulty comes from the term’s relationship with the word ‘modern’. Modernist literature is not ‘modern’ to a reader in the early 21st century: much of it is nearly 100 years old. Unlike many other ‘-isms’ such as Vorticism or Futurism, modernism was not a term of its time, although ‘modern’ and sometimes ‘modernist’ were. It is a word which gained currency in the 1950s to describe the work of a loosely connected group of writers, artists, architects and musicians who flourished in the first part of the 20th century. Paris may have been their centre but, for a brief period from just before the First World War up to 1922, London was just as important. Although it is useful to have an overview of what modernism might be, the word should never become a straitjacket into which we try to fit a writer’s oddity or distinctiveness. But by comparing and contrasting poems and prose of the period we can better understand the varieties that are contained within it. These varieties account for the fact that some critics have begun to use the plural terms ‘modernisms’ and ‘early modernists’. It is hard to know when modernism begins. As a European movement its origins might, for example, be traced back to Flaubert and the French symbolist poets of the 19th century or to Chekhov’s plays and short stories – but space demands a close focus here on English writing at the beginning of the 20th century. The accession to the throne of King George V in 1910 is a convenient starting point as it marks the end of the Edwardian period. It is also the date of the ‘Manet and the Post- Impressionists’ exhibition in London – an exhibition which signalled a dramatic change in the sense of what art could and should be. The title of this book suggests that there was a period of modernism followed by ‘a something else’ that ended in 1939. This would be a simplification in two ways. ‘We do not all inhabit the same time,’ said Ezra Pound. During the period 1910–1939 the majority of writers did not march under the modernist banner. Many of the most popular poets such as Thomas Hardy, A.E. Housman and Edward Thomas were out of step with modernism in their themes and their use of more traditional forms of rhyme and metre. As the theme of this book is modernism, they are here seen as background figures only. This is, of course, no reflection on the intrinsic interest of their work. The same point is equally true of the novel. Virginia Woolf defined her art by contrasting her approach with three more commercial writers: John Galsworthy, Arnold Bennett and H.G. Wells. In this book the focus is on Woolf and the new, not on the more conventional prose writers. 6 MODERNISM AND AFTER © Cambridge University Press www.cambridge.org

- Modernism and After: English Literature 1910-1939 John Smart Frontmatter More information Space forbids treating in any detail the extraordinarily rich Irish writing of this period except insofar as it had a direct effect on English writers. The American Ezra Pound made London his home at a crucial period in the development of modernism and hence is included here, as is the American writer H.D. and the New Zealander Katherine Mansfield, who were also key figures in London. Detailed comment on First World War writing has been kept to a minimum as it is already comprehensively covered in another volume in the ‘Cambridge Contexts in Literature’ series, The Great War in British Literature, and the same is true of theatre where it overlaps with Modern British Drama.
