Book Synopsis Modernism and the Aesthetics of Violence by : Paul Sheehan
Book excerpt: This book addresses the subject of violence as it features in celebrated modernist works from the early twentieth century. It traces the modernist fascination with violence back to the middle decades of the nineteenth century, when certain writers in France and England sought to celebrate dissident sexualities and stylized criminality.
