Art, History, and Postwar Fiction (Oxford English Monographs) by Kevin Brazil
Requirements: .PDF reader, 6 MB
Overview: Art, History, and Postwar Fiction explores the ways in which novelists responded to the visual arts from the aftermath of the Second World War to the present day. If art had long served as a foil to enable novelists to reflect on their craft, this book argues that in the postwar period,
novelists turned to the visual arts to develop new ways of conceptualizing the relationship between literature and history. The sense that the novel was becalmed in the end of history was pervasive in the postwar decades. In seeming to bring modernism to a climax whilst repeating its foundational
gestures, visual art also raised questions about the relationship between continuity and change in the development of art.
