It suggests that Futurism offered a compelling response to a cultural tension that had emerged in the late nineteenth century-the growing separation between art and life-and considers how English modernists adapted aspects of Futurist thought in order to navigate and reshape \u003ci\u003efin-de-siècle\u003c\/i\u003e cultural discourses.\u003c\/b\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e It begins with an analysis of Italian Futurism's transnational affiliations, its position in the European cultural field, and a reassessment of its reception in England, and goes on to re-evaluate three key modernist figures: the Poetry Bookshop proprietor and editor Harold Monro; the Vorticist impresario Wyndham Lewis; and the poet and artist Mina Loy. In doing so, this study not only offers an expanded account of the Futurist movement in England and Anglophone contexts, but also contributes to ongoing efforts to develop a more interconnected and nuanced understanding of early modernist historiography.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eRobyn Jakeman\u003c\/b\u003e is an Honorary Research Fellow at Birkbeck, University of London, UK.\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Bloomsbury Academic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51985612931346,"sku":"9781350327689","price":126.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0831\/4771\/8930\/files\/img_7fca0574-86e0-466e-a4b8-eb54cdf6b296.jpg?v=1769540860","url":"https:\/\/surprise-castle.myshopify.com\/products\/italian-futurism-and-the-development-of-english-literary-modernism-9781350327689","provider":"Surprise Castle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
