A most enjoyable time, as the conqueror of the Roman Republic educates the ruler of a weak and decaying state on how to manage the Romans. ( ) A Clergyman, a poet, and an industrialist reveal their relationship to Candidia, a woman who knows her own mind. In the end she chooses life with the /clergyman, a socialist, rather than the poet. The Industrialist, being her father, is oout of bounds for that part of the contest. GBS turns his wit upon, 1) The left leaning clergy 2) industrialists as usual. 3) The airy fairy arts community and 4) the version of the New Woman in the person of Candida. The play did well on the stage, and is regularly revived. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
Provides an alternative account of the modernist transatlanticTransatlantic Avant-Gardes offers a revisionary account of the evolution of twentieth-century modernism. Complimenting recent studies of modernist expatriates, Eric White explores new points of contact between European and American avant-gardes to place 'located' figures such as William Carlos Williams, Marianne Moore, Wallace Stevens, Jean Toomer, and Alfred Kreymborg back into the 'global design' of literary modernism. Focusing on artist-run 'little magazines' (including Others, Contact, The Little Review, Blast, The Dial, Fire , and Pagany) and selected fine press publications and mainstream periodicals, White also reconsiders the boundaries that traditionally divide modernist literature into 'exile' and 'localist', or 'regionalist' and 'cosmopolitan', factions. Thus, the book proposes a version of localist modernism that prioritises issues of geographic and textual 'location' to deliver a 'networked' approach to American modernism in the transatlantic context. Combining literary-historical, textual, and cultural criticism, Transatlantic Avant-Gardes provides a new reading of the specialised literary networks that interrogated the relationship between geographic place, textual space and national identity in the modernist transatlantic.
