Modernism, Nationalism, and the Novel

Klappentext
This study examines the impact of nationalist political thought on the modern novel.

Zusammenfassung
This 2000 book examines how changing conceptions of national identity inspired radical experiments with narrative form amongst modernist writers. His study shows how, far from abandoning the political concerns of nineteenth-century realism, writers such as Joyce, Conrad and Proust address the question of nationality through their exploration of individual consciousness.
