Literary and Historical Studies

A.C. Swinburne and the Singing WordNew Perspectives on the Mature Work Edited by Yisrael Levin, University of VictoriaFocusing on Algernon Charles Swinburne’s later writings, this collection makes a case for the seriousness and significance of the writer’s mature work. Among the key features of the collection is the contextualizing of Swinburne’s work in new contexts such as Victorian mythography, Victorian literary criticism, continental aestheticism, positivism and empiricism. Taken together, the essays offer scholars a richer portrait of Swinburne’s importance as a poet, critic and fiction writer.Includes 5 b&w illustrations August 2010 202 pages 978-0-7546-6996-8 Hardback $99.95 978-1-4094-0372-2 eBook www.ashgate.com/isbn/9780754669968

NEWAmerica in Literature and FilmModernist Perceptions, Postmodernist RepresentationsAhmed ElbeshlawyUtilizing Lacan’s psychoanalytic theory and Žižek’s philosophical adaption of it, this book brings into dialogue a series of literary works, films and critical theory that are concerned with defining America. Elbeshlawy demonstrates that texts which particularly focus on demonstrating how other texts about America communicate an unreliable message themselves communicate an unreliable message. Writers and films discussed include Adorno, Kafka, Sontag, Said, Hassan, Dogville and Birth of a Nation.

Contents: Introduction: approaching America. PART I: MODERNIST PERCEPTIONS: The epical American self and the psychotic phenomenon; D.H. Lawrence’s radical criticism of America; The fiction of the castrating power of America: Kafka’s dream; Adorno’s fascist America.

NEWAmy Lowell, Diva PoetMelissa Bradshaw, Loyola University ChicagoBradshaw uses theories of the diva and female celebrity to account for Lowell’s extraordinary literary influence in the early twentieth century and the dismissal of her work after her death. Drawing on a rich array of letters, memoirs, newspapers and periodicals, but eschewing the biographical interpretations of her poetry that have often characterized criticism on Lowell; Bradshaw restores Lowell to her rightful place as a powerful writer and impresario of modernist verse.

Contents: Introduction: the poet as diva: femininity, celebrity, poetry; The fat woman in the attic: cultural memory and the construction of a persona; The demon saleswoman: selling avant-garde poetics to the American public; The last of the barons: Americanism and gender ambivalence in wartime; Nothing to hide: Lowell’s love poems and the myth of authenticity; The erotics of submission: Eleonora Duse in Lowell’s poetry; Afterword: whatever happened to Amy Lowell?; Index.Includes 10 b&w illustrations December 2011 c. 190 pages 978-1-4094-1002-7 Hardback c. $99.95 www.ashgate.com/isbn/9781409410027

NEWAnxiety and Evil in the Writings of Patricia HighsmithFiona Peters, Bath Spa University, UKDrawing extensively on the under-explored Highsmith Archive, Peters suggests that the usual generic distinctions—crime fiction, mystery, suspense—have been largely unhelpful in elucidating Patricia Highsmith’s novels. Peters adopts a psychoanalytic approach to show that specific disturbances within her text have resulted in Highsmith’s writing remaining resistant to explication and to the more sophisticated interpretative strategies that would seek to position her within a specific genre.

Death in American Texts and PerformancesCorpses, Ghosts, and the Reanimated DeadEdited by Lisa K. Perdigao, Florida Institute of Technology and Mark Pizzato, University of North Carolina, CharlotteHow do twentieth-century artists bring forth the powerful reality of death when it exists in memory and lived experience as something that happens only to others? This volume grapples with this paradox, examining literary texts and performance media that include Amiri Baraka’s Dutchman, Thornton Wilder’s Our Town, John Edgar Wideman’s The Cattle Killing, Toni Morrison’s Sula and Song of Solomon, Don DeLillo’s White Noise, and HBO’s Six Feet Under.January 2010 228 pages 978-0-7546-6907-4 Hardback $99.95 978-0-7546-9602-5 eBook www.ashgate.com/isbn/9780754669074

NEWFrance and the Spanish Civil WarCultural Representations of the War Next Door, 1936–1945Martin Hurcombe, University of Bristol, UK“Hurcombe analyzes texts from far-right, clearly pro-Nationalist writers, as well as from left-wing authors whose allegiance fell unambiguously on the Republican side, and, in a very interesting final chapter, from authors on both sides whose ideas found themselves challenged by what they observed. As a result, the whole book provides an illuminating portrait of the various political factions and tensions that animated France in those years and beyond.”

—David Caron, University of Michigan

In this wide-ranging study of French intellectuals who represented the Spanish Civil War as it was happening and in its immediate aftermath, Hurcombe explores the ways in which these individuals addressed national anxieties and shaped the French political landscape. Bringing together reports, essays and fiction by French supporters of Franco’s Nationalists and of the Spanish Republic, Hurcombe shows the multifaceted ways in which conflict impacted upon French political culture.

Contents: Introduction: importing the Spanish Civil War; Touring the Spanish labyrinth: the Far Right in Nationalist Spain; The art of war: the novels of Frondaie and Maulvault; The birth of international Fascism: from Brasillach to Drieu la Rochelle; From Republican solidarity towards the totalitarian Republic: the French left and the Spanish Republic; Fellow-travelling to Spain: Malraux, L’Espoir and the Civil War; Beyond the Spanish Republic: journey’s end and new departures; Lessons in the darkness: Bernanos’s Les Grands Cimetières sous la lune and Pollès’s Toute guerre se fait la nuit; Epilogue: decisions in the dark: Sartre’s ‘Le Mur’; Bibliography; Index.June 2011 254 pages 978-1-4094-2082-8 Hardback $99.95 978-1-4094-2083-5 eBook www.ashgate.com/isbn/9781409420828

From Modernist Entombment to Postmodernist ExhumationDead Bodies in Twentieth-Century American FictionLisa K. Perdigao, Florida Institute of Technology“A thoughtful addition to studies of representation and the body, Perdigao’s book sheds new light on a wide range of American authors who meditate on death, mourning and language, especially as these are shadowed by gender and race.”

—Laura Doyle, University of Massachusetts, Amherst

How fictional representations of dead bodies develop over the twentieth century is the central concern of Lisa K. Perdigao’s study of American writers. Perdigao considers works by writers from William Faulkner and Richard Wright to Toni Morrison and Jeffrey Eugenides, arguing that the crisis of bodily representation can be traced from modernist entombment to postmodernist exhumation, complementary drives that speak to the tension between the desire to bury the dead and the need to remember.June 2010 188 pages 978-0-7546-6717-9 Hardback $99.95 978-1-4094-0430-9 eBook www.ashgate.com/isbn/9780754667179

Hellenism and Loss in the Work of Virginia WoolfTheodore Koulouris, University of Sussex, UKTaking up Virginia Woolf’s fascination with Greek literature and culture, this book explores her engagement with the nineteenth-century phenomenon of British Hellenism and her transformation of that multifaceted socio-cultural and political reality into a particular textual aesthetic, which Theodore Koulouris defines as “Greekness” Woolf’s “Greekness,” Koulouris argues, enabled her to navigate male and female appropriations of British Hellenism and was singly important in providing her with a language of mourning.December 2010 252 pages 978-1-4094-0445-3 Hardback $114.95 978-1-4094-1966-2 eBook www.ashgate.com/isbn/9781409404453

J.M. Coetzee’s AusteritiesEdited by Graham Bradshaw, University of Queensland, Australia and Michael Neill, University of Auckland, New Zealand“…the collection makes a fine addition to previous scholarship on Coetzee…Highly recommended.”

—Choice

Representing a wide range of critical and theoretical perspectives, this volume seeks to align the South African dimension of Coetzee’s writing with his “late modernist” aesthetic. It includes essays exploring the relationship between Coetzee’s novels and his work on linguistics; and, by paying particular attention to the novelist’s more recent fictional experiments, the collection points towards a narrato-political and linguistic reassessment of the Coetzee canon.April 2010 282 pages 978-0-7546-6803-9 Hardback $99.95 978-0-7546-9905-7 eBook www.ashgate.com/isbn/9780754668039

NEWThe Late Victorian GothicMental Science, the Uncanny, and Scenes of WritingHilary GrimesExamining technological advances, genre and late nineteenth-century mental science, Grimes shows writers’ failed attempts to use technology as a way of translating the supernatural at the fin de siècle. She treats a wide range of authors, including Henry James, George Du Maurier, Mary Louisa Molesworth, Vernon Lee and Sarah Grand to show the end of the nineteenth century produced a Gothicism specific to the period.

Marianne Moore and the Cultures of ModernityVictoria Bazin, Northumbria University, UK“Victoria Bazin brings an important new perspective to Moore studies by positioning her dialectically in relation to pragmatism, Walter Benjamin’s theories of consumerism and history, and the contradictions of modernity for women, demonstrating that Moore connects poetry to the mundane and habitual while engaging in nuanced feminist analysis of her peer poets and philosophers and of newly emerging mass consumerism. This is a book every student and scholar of Moore will want to read.”

—Cristanne Miller, University of Buffalo

Victoria Bazin’s interpretations of Marianne Moore’s poetry draw extensively on archival resources to trace her influences and to describe her own distinctive modernist aesthetic. Bazin argues that it was Moore’s feminist adaptation of pragmatism that shaped her poetry, producing a complex response to the new expanding consumer culture, one that explores not only the aesthetic pleasures but also the ethical consequences of “too much.” Includes 4 b&w illustrations November 2010 228 pages 978-0-7546-6232-7 Hardback $99.95 978-1-4094-2302-7 eBook www.ashgate.com/isbn/9780754662327

Masculinities in British Adventure Fiction, 1880–1915Joseph A. Kestner, University of Tulsa“One of the strengths of Kestner’s work is the care with which he has sought out his authors’ published views of their chosen genre...”

—Modern Language Review

Making use of recent masculinity theories, Joseph A. Kestner sheds new light on Victorian and Edwardian adventure fiction. Canonical authors such as R.L. Stevenson, Rudyard Kipling, Joseph Conrad and Olive Schreiner are examined alongside popular writers like A.E.W. Mason, W.H. Hudson and John Buchan, providing an expansive picture of the crisis of masculinity that pervades adventure texts during the period.

Mediterranean ModernismsThe Poetic Metaphysics of Odysseus ElytisMarinos Pourgouris, University of Cyprus“Mediterranean Modernisms is the first comparative study of Odysseus Elytis…Undaunted in his pursuit of a Greek and a European Elytis, Pourgouris provides a kaleidoscopic look at the place of poetry in the Mediterranean imaginary.”

—Gregory Jusdanis, Ohio State University

Engaging with the work of Nobel Prize-winning poet Odysseus Elytis within the framework of international modernism, Marinos Pourgouris places the poet’s work in the context of other modernist thinkers in Europe, including Albert Camus, Charles Baudelaire, Gaston Bachelard, Sigmund Freud and C.G. Jung. Informed by extensive research in the United States and Europe, Pourgouris’ study is one of the most compelling contributions to the comparative study of Greek modernism, the Mediterranean, and the work of Odysseus Elytis.

Modernist Star MapsCelebrity, Modernity, CultureEdited by Aaron Jaffe, University of Louisville and Jonathan Goldman, New York Institute of Technology“This book makes an important contribution to the New Modernist Studies while simultaneously challenging us to rethink the phantom concept of modernism itself.”

—Sean Latham, University of Tulsa

Canadian, American and British scholars explore the mutually determining relationship of modernism and modern celebrity culture in this innovative collection. Illuminating case studies of subjects both predictable (Virginia Woolf and F. Scott Fitzgerald) and surprising (Elvis and Hitler) are balanced by attention to broader issues related to modernist aesthetics, such as celebrity’s relationship to identity, commodification, print culture, personality, visual cultures and theatricality.Includes 20 b&w illustrations October 2010 280 pages 978-0-7546-6610-3 Hardback $99.95 www.ashgate.com/isbn/9780754666103

NEWModernist Short Fiction by WomenThe Liminal in Katherine Mansfield, Dorothy Richardson, May Sinclair and Virginia WoolfClaire Drewery, Sheffield Hallam University, UKExploring the short story’s relationship to literary Modernism, Claire Drewery considers works by Katherine Mansfield, Dorothy Richardson, May Sinclair and Virginia Woolf. Drewery argues that the short story is preoccupied with transgressing boundaries, and thus is an ideal genre for examining the Modernist fascination with the liminal. Drewery shows how these writers contribute significantly to the Modernist aesthetic that interrogates identity, the construction of the self, and the relationship between the individual and society.

Contents: Introduction: the liminal aesthetic in the modernist short story; ‘The journey not the arrival’: pilgrimage as a modernist liminal metaphor; Beyond the rite of passage: ‘impossible’ mourning as an aesthetic of disunity; The death of the other: dying, mortality, and the textual body; The modernist uncanny tradition: mysticism, metaphysics and the psychological; The ‘inner life’ as liminal discourse; Out of the ordinary: the revelatory moment as a liminal space; Works cited; Index.May 2011 158 pages 978-0-7546-6646-2 Hardback $99.95 978-1-4094-2888-6 eBook www.ashgate.com/isbn/9780754666462

In the first monograph to examine all five New York School Poets, Mark Silverberg analyzes the work of John Ashbery, Barbara Guest, Kenneth Koch, Frank O’Hara and James Schuyler in terms of the “neo-avant-garde.” Silverberg examines the aesthetic concerns and ideological assumptions these poets shared with one another and with artists from the visual and performing arts. A unique feature is Silverberg’s annotated catalog of collaborative works by the five poets and other artists.Includes 10 b&w illustrations March 2010 296 pages 978-0-7546-6298-3 Hardback $104.95 978-0-7546-9993-4 eBook www.ashgate.com/isbn/9780754662983

FORTHCOMINGQueer EnvironmentalityEcology, Evolution, and Sexuality in American LiteratureRobert Azzarello, Southern University, New OrleansOffering a model for meaningful dialogue between queer and environmental studies, Robert Azzarello’s book traces a queer-environmental lineage in American Romantic and post-Romantic literature. Azzarello’s study treats four American authors—Henry David Thoreau, Herman Melville, Willa Cather and Djuna Barnes—all of whom problematize conventional notions of the matrix between the human, the natural and the sexual and challenge the assumption that the subject of American environmental literature is essentially heterosexual.April 2012 c. 160 pages 978-1-4094-2664-6 Hardback c. $89.95 978-1-4094-2665-3 eBook www.ashgate.com/isbn/9781409426646

Urban Confrontations in Literature and Social Science, 1848–2001European Contexts, American EvolutionsEdward J. Ahearn, Brown University“Urban Confrontations assembles a rich assortment of politically committed writers whose work testifies to a significant overlap between literary representations of the city and sociological ones.”

—Times Literary Supplement

Edward J. Ahearn shows that together, works from literature and the social sciences can illuminate city life in ways that neither can accomplish separately. Whether viewing Charles Baudelaire alongside Emile Durkheim and Georg Simmel or Herman Melville’s Bartleby the Scrivener as a challenge to James Q. Wilson’s Bureaucracy, Ahearn does justice to the complexity of his subject matter. Ultimately, Ahearn suggests, neither literature nor the social sciences can capture the experience of urban misery.January 2010 246 pages 978-0-7546-6882-4 Hardback $99.95 978-0-7546-9538-7 eBook www.ashgate.com/isbn/9780754668824

Virginia WoolfThe Patterns of Ordinary ExperienceLorraine Sim, University of Western Sydney, AustraliaPlacing Virginia Woolf’s views in the context of the philosophical and lay accounts of everyday experience that dominated the cultural thought of her time, Sim draws on the major novels and on a number of shorter and less-discussed texts such as short stories, essays, memoirs and diaries. Woolf, Sim contends, explores the potential of everyday experience as a site of personal meaning, social understanding and ethical value.

W.B. Yeats, Ezra Pound, and the Poetry of ParadiseSean Pryor, University of New South Wales, AustraliaEmphasizing the interplay of aesthetic forms and religious modes, Sean Pryor’s ambitious study takes up the endlessly reiterated longing for paradise that features throughout the works of W.B. Yeats and Ezra Pound. Throughout his study, Pryor argues that Yeats and Pound reconceive the quest for paradise as a pursuit for a new kind of poetry, a journey that Pryor traces by analyzing unpublished manuscript drafts and newly published drafts that have received little attention.

NEWWyndham Lewis and the Cultures of ModernityEdited by Andrzej Gasiorek, Alice Reeve-Tucker and Nathan Waddell, all at University of Birmingham, UK“These dozen essays bring insight and original scholarship to an examination of the complex duality of Lewis’ project and persona in action, both in the familiar arenas of Vorticism and Blast and in his later engagement with philosophy, politics, cinema, radio, the youth cult and the cultural ramifications of shell-shock…”

—Peter Brooker, University of Nottingham, UK

Making a strong case for a revaluation of Wyndham Lewis, this collection argues that significant aspects of Lewis’ writing, painting and thinking have not yet received the attention they deserve. Lewis’ contributions to the production and circulation of modernism and the links between Lewis’ writing and painting are explored in the context of other key figures of the twentieth century.

NEWChildren’s Stories and “Child-Time” in the Works of Joseph Cornell and the Transatlantic Avant-GardeAnalisa Leppanen-GuerraAshgate Studies in Surrealism

PRIZE: WINNER OF A COLLEGE ART ASSOCIATION WYETH FOUNDATION FOR AMERICAN ART PUBLICATION GRANT

“Various writers in the past have touched on Joseph Cornell’s fascination with childhood, and on play and toys as subjects in his work, but there has not yet been a study which deals with the subject head-on. This book is among the best in the rich literature on Cornell.”

—David Hopkins, University of Glasgow, UK

Focusing on his evocative and profound references to children and their stories, Children’s Stories and “Child-Time” in the Works of Joseph Cornell and the Transatlantic Avant-Garde studies the relationship between the artist’s work on childhood and his search for a transfigured concept of time. As it changes the focus from Cornell’s boxes to his multimedia works, this study also situates Cornell and his art in the broader context of the transatlantic avant-garde of the 1930s and 40s.

“Shirley Mangini has masterfully woven together the historical context, the artist’s personal biography and analyses of the various phases of her painting into a gripping narrative. Hers is an authoritative and detailed account of this astonishing woman, who forged an artistic career in an era in Spain that was particularly hostile to women artists and writers.”

—Roberta Johnson, University of Kansas and UCLA and author of Gender and Nation

in the Spanish Modernist Novel

The first book in English on the artist, Maruja Mallo and the Spanish Avant-Garde examines the life and art of a woman sidelined by history and her male counterparts. Out of the misogyny and political conflict of interwar Madrid, Mallo emerges, not as Surrealist muse, but as a vital figure in the flowering of Spain’s cultural vanguard. Unprecedented interviews with Mallo’s family provide fresh insights into this extraordinary artist.Includes 12 color and 16 b&w illustrations June 2010 272 pages 978-0-7546-6932-6 Hardback $119.95 www.ashgate.com/isbn/9780754669326

Alchemy in Contemporary ArtUrszula Szulakowska, University of Leeds, UK“Urszula Szulakowska has established herself as an indispensable authority on the artistic as well as ideological aspects of early modern alchemy. This time she ventures into the modern period and opens up hitherto unexplored territories.”

—György E. Szönyi, University of Szeged, Hungary

Alchemy in Contemporary Art analyzes how twentieth-century artists, beginning with French Surrealists of the 1920s, have appropriated concepts and imagery from the western alchemical tradition. Examining artistic production from ca. 1920 to the present, with an emphasis on artistic on the 1970s to 2000, the author discusses the work of familiar as well as lesser known artists to provide a critical, theorized overview of the alchemical tradition in 20th-century art.

FORTHCOMINGAfter Francis BaconSynaesthesia and Sex in PaintNicholas Chare, University of Melbourne, Australia“Nicholas Chare has written an intellectually engaging and rich theoretical analysis of the work of Francis Bacon…a significant contribution…”

—John Paul Ricco, University of Toronto and author of The Logic of the Lure and The Decision Between Us

After Francis Bacon is the first book to consider how the uncritical reception of David Sylvester’s interviews has shaped interpretations of Bacon’s work. Nicholas Chare moves beyond the interviews’ limiting effects to offer new readings of the artist’s works, primarily based on themes of sexuality and synaesthesia. Chare also contributes to contemporary debates about creative writing in art history; and suggests new avenues of research in Bacon studies.

Anarchism and the Advent of Paris DadaArt and Criticism, 1914–1924Theresa Papanikolas, Honolulu Academy of Arts“Theresa Papanikolas’ book on Paris Dada revises our understanding of this seminal movement which— in contrast to Berlin and Zurich Dada—has been too readily dismissed as lacking an ideological focus. The author’s fresh perspective enables her to reconfigure the history of the movement in an exciting way that offers new insight on Paris Dadaist art and writing.”

—Mark Antliff, author of Avant-Garde Fascism: The Mobilization of Myth, Art and Culture

in France, 1909–1939

Anarchism and the Advent of Paris Dada is the first book-length study to interrogate the Paris Dadaists’ complex and often contested position in the postwar groundswell of anarchoindividualism. Drawing on such surviving documentation as correspondence, criticism, periodicals, pamphlets and manifestoes, this book argues that, contrary to received wisdom, Dada was driven by a vision of social change through radical cultural upheaval.

McQuilten’s rigorous argumentation addresses the role of bodily desire, irrationality and the disruption of function in practices of mis-design. Her nuanced analysis recovers a place for the criticality of art in the era of late capitalism.”

—Amanda Boetzkes, author of The Ethics of Earth Art

A call to arms for creative freedom and critical thought, Art in Consumer Culture: Mis-Design asks the contemporary art world to be honest about the pervasive effects of commodification and the difficulty of staging critique.

Biocentrism and ModernismEdited by Oliver A.I. Botar, University of Manitoba and Isabel Wünsche, Jacobs University, Germany“This volume provides a stimulating and much-needed consideration of a range of concepts drawn from the biological sciences and their impact upon cultural theory and production, in ways that significantly enrich our understanding of some of the key intellectual contexts for early twentieth-century art and culture.”

—Julia Kelly, author of Art, Ethnography and the Life of Objects

Examining the intersections between art and scientific approaches to the natural world, Biocentrism and Modernism reveals another side to Modernism’s development. While historians have usually framed this movement as being mechanistic and “against” nature, the essays in this collection illuminate the role that nature-centric ideologies played in late-nineteenth to mid-twentieth-century Modernism. Looking at philosophy and application, this volume features case studies of artists such as Duchamp-Villon, Klee, Kandinsky and Pollock.

Somewhat neglected by histories of modern art because his singular vision was often at odd with the mainstream art world, his work is now due for an appraisal.

Contemporary Art and Classical MythEdited by Isabelle Loring Wallace, University of Georgia and Jennie Hirsh, Maryland Institute College of Art“As this compelling and revelatory volume proposes, classical mythology’s rich territory and enduring stories of morality and the human condition provide a provocative lens through which to read and re-read the works of some of contemporary art’s most celebrated artists.”

—Irene Hofmann, SITE Santa Fe

Contemporary art is deeply engaged with the subject of classical myth. Yet within the literature on contemporary art, little has been said about this provocative relationship. Composed of fifteen original essays, Contemporary Art and Classical Myth addresses this scholarly gap, exploring and in large part establishing, the multifaceted intersection of contemporary art and classical myth.

NEWEileen Gray and the Design of Sapphic ModernityStaying InJasmine Rault, McMaster University“…redresses significant lacunae in the literature of modern architecture, modern literature and early twentieth century studies of gender and sexual culture, while pushing the literature on Eileen Gray in very fruitful directions.”

—Tirza True Latimer, California College of the Arts and author of Women Together/Women Apart:

Portraits of Lesbian Paris

The first book-length feminist analysis of Eileen Gray’s work, Eileen Gray and the Design of Sapphic Modernity argues that Gray’s unusual architecture and design—as well as its history of abuse and neglect—resulted from her involvement with sapphic modernism. Gray’s works share with paintings by Romaine Brooks, and novels by Radclyffe Hall and Djuna Barnes, an aesthetic opacity intended to resist the clarity of lesbian identity.

Gender and Activism in a Little MagazineThe Modern Figures of the MassesRachel Schreiber, California College of the Arts“Rather than viewing cartoons from the Masses primarily in terms of critical social stances or aesthetic choices, Schreiber uses these images to analyze the complexity of early 20th century viewpoints relating to labor, parenthood, sexuality, gender roles and citizenship in American culture.”

—Helen Langa, American University and author of Radical Art: Printmaking and the Left in 1930s New York

Interweaving nuanced discussions of politics, visuality and gender, Gender and Activism in a Little Magazine uncovers the complex ways that gender figures into the graphic satire created by artists for the New York-based socialist journal the Masses, published between 1911 and 1917. This study uses these images to open up new ways of understanding the complexity of early 20th-century viewpoints, and returns these often-ignored images to their rightful place in American modernist scholarship.

Illustrated with line drawings and photographs of more than 30 examples from around the country, this book examines Modernist semi-detached and terraced houses within the broader context of the Modern Movement in Europe, as well as the inter-war building boom in suburban Britain. It shows how these houses speak of a time of political, social and artistic unrest and a world where the avant-garde architects sought to capture the spirit of modern technology in their designs for the average home owner.

Much of the writing on the group (in any language) has been written under the shadow of its founder, Pierre Restany; Carrick’s book is important as it is the first to be published after his death in 2003, and diverges considerably from the French critic’s doctrinaire reading of their works.”

—Heather McPherson, University of Alabama, Birmingham

Bringing forth fresh perspectives on Manet's art by established scholars, this volume places this compelling and elusive artist's painted oeuvre within a broader cultural context, and links his artistic preoccupations with literary and musical currents. Rather than seeking consensus on his art through one methodology, or focusing on one crucial work or period, this collection investigates the range of Manet's art in the context of his time and considers how his vision has shaped subsequent interpretations.

—Anna Novakov, St. Mary’s College of California

Incorporating recent theories of feminism and diaspora, Women Artists in Interwar France returns the Société des Femmes Artists Modernes, known as FAM, to its proper place in the history of modern art. Paula Birnbaum’s study explores how FAM artists including Suzanne Valadon, Marie Laurencin and Tamara de Lempicka, approached the self-portrait, motherhood and the female nude, as well as their response to marginalization and the reactionary politics of 1930s France.

British Music and Modernism, 1895–1960Edited by Matthew Riley, University of Birmingham, UKImaginative analytical and critical work on British music of the early twentieth century has been hindered by perceptions of the repertory as insular in its references and backward in its style and syntax, escaping the modernity that surrounded its composers. Recent research has begun to break down these perceptions and has found intriguing links between British music and modernism. This book brings together contributions from scholars working in analysis, hermeneutics, reception history, critical theory and the history of ideas.Includes 19 b&w illustrations and 44 music examples June 2010 346 pages 978-0-7546-6585-4 Hardback $124.95 www.ashgate.com/isbn/9780754665854

British Rock Modernism, 1967–1977The Story of Music Hall in RockBarry J. Faulk, Florida State UniversityAshgate Popular and Folk Music Series

British Rock Modernism, 1967–1977 explains how the definitive British rock performers of this epoch aimed, not at the youthful rebellion for which they are legendary, but at a highly self-conscious project of commenting on the business in which they were engaged. They did so by ironically appropriating the traditional forms of Victorian music hall and the result was a symbolically charged form whose main purpose was to unsettle the hierarchy that set traditional popular culture above the new medium.November 2010 192 pages 978-1-4094-1190-1 Hardback $99.95 978-1-4094-1945-7 eBook www.ashgate.com/isbn/9781409411901

NEWLigeti’s Laments: Nostalgia, Exoticism, and the AbsoluteAmy Bauer, University of California, IrvineLigeti’s Laments provides a critical analysis of the composer’s works, considering both the compositions themselves and the larger cultural implications of their reception. Bauer both synthesizes and challenges the prevailing narratives surrounding the composer’s long career and uses the theme of lament to inform a discussion of specific musical topics, including descending melodic motives, passacaglia and the influence of folk music.

FORTHCOMINGThe Music of David LumsdaineKelly Ground to CambewarraMichael Hooper, Royal Academy of Music, UKAustralian by birth but a long-time resident of Great Britain, David Lumsdaine (b.1931) is central to both Australian and British modernism. By analyzing a series of Lumsdaine’s compositions, focusing on works written between 1966 and 1980, Hooper places Lumsdaine’s music in the context of Australian and British avant-gardes, and reveals its elegance, lyricism and technical virtuosity.

Contents: Introduction; David Lumsdaine’s Kelly Ground; “I would love to know how it all goes together” or “free as a bird:” improvisatory flights, indeterminacy and two works by avid Lumsdaine; Labyrinths and journeys; Hagoromo—the melody of a bell / the harmony of a flute; David Lumsdaine, modernism and Bach: Ruhe sanfte, sanfte ruh’ and Mandala 3; Reconfigurations in the fracture of Lumsdaine’s Cambewarra: re-experiencing a territory; Postscript; Bibliography; Discography; Index.Includes 79 tables, 39 examples and 42 figures March 2012 c. 261 pages 978-1-4094-2876-3 Hardback c. $114.95 978-1-4094-2877-0 eBook www.ashgate.com/isbn/9781409428763

Music and the Modern Condition: Investigating the BoundariesLjubica Ilic“I cannot overemphasize the originality and brilliance of Ljubica Ilic’s project. Seventeenth-century music continues to be viewed as an awkward transition between the Renaissance and the Enlightenment, and her insights shed light not only on music history but on European culture in general: the problems of artistic autonomy, of representation, of subjectivity, of the ethical responsibility of art, of theology. I was continually astonished by the insights she brings forward throughout the book.”

—Susan McClary, University of California, Los Angeles

Two crucial moments in the formation and disintegration of musical modernity and the musical canon occurred at the turn of the seventeenth and the first half of the twentieth century. Ljubica Ilic provides a fresh and close look at these moments, exploring the ways musical compositions shift to and away from ideological structures identified with modernity. The focus is on European art music whose grand narrative, defined by tonality and teleological development, begins in the seventeenth century and ends with twentieth-century modernisms. Seeing musical storytelling as a metaphoric representation of selfhood, and modernity as a historical continuum, Ilic examines the boundaries and relationships between the musical work, the subject and modern European history.October 2010 132 pages 978-1-4094-0761-4 Hardback $99.95 978-1-4094-1824-5 eBook www.ashgate.com/isbn/9781409407614

FORTHCOMINGRoger Smalley: A Case Study of Late Twentieth-Century CompositionChristopher Mark, University of Surrey, UKWriting the history of musical composition in the late twentieth century might be seen as problematic. A productive way forward is to pursue case studies involving single composers whose music reflects several aspects of recent activity. The music of the composer Roger Smalley is ideal material for such a study, because of his involvement with an unusually large number of the myriad concerns and practices of post-1950s composition. Employing an interview with the composer as a kind of cantus firmus, the book incorporates critical commentary on the composer’s major works in a chronological narrative that engages with broad issues of central relevance to Smalley’s generation.

Contents: Preface; ‘Culminating moments’: an interview with Roger Smalley; A child of Serialism (1961–5); Changing orientations (1965–74); In a new land (1974–88); Back to the future II (1988–99); Epilogue; Bibliography; Appendices; Index.Includes 15 b&w illustrations, 23 figures and 94 music examples March 2012 c. 283 pages 978-1-4094-2411-6 Hardback c. $114.95 www.ashgate.com/isbn/9781409424116
