Masculine Identity in Modernist Literature: Castration, Narration, and a Sense of the Beginning, 1919-1945 By Allan JohnsonEnglish | PDF,EPUB | 2017 | 179 Pages | ISBN : 3319655086 | 2.15 MB
This book is about the modernist narrative voice and its correlation to medical, mythological, and psychoanalytic images of emasculation between 1919 and 1945. It shows how special-effects of rhetoric and form inspired by outré modernist developments in psychoanalysis, occultism, and negative philosophy reshaped both narrative structure and the literary depiction of modern masculine identity.
