Primitivist Modernism Black Culture and the Origins of Transatlantic Modernism - Click here for more info

Insisting on modernism's two-way cultural flow, Lemke demonstrates not only that white modernism owes much of its symbolic capital to the black Other, but that black modernism built itself in part on white Euro-American models. Through readings of individual texts and images (fifteen examples of which are reproduced in this volume), Lemke reforms our understanding of modernism. She shows us that transatlantic modernism in both its high and popular modes was significantly more diverse than commonly supposed. Students and scholars of modernism, African American studies, and cultural studies, and those with interests in twentieth-century art, dance, music, or literature, will find this book rewarding. - Category: Books/Reading - Misc. - New - Item: 460839092 - Primitivist Modernism Black Culture and the Origins of Transatlantic Modernism
