1 Literature and Society: Modernism and Material Culture ENG 775.2X, section 2SX M, Th 12:30-3:00, James 5301 Instructor: Jeff Drouin, Office Hours: Boylan 2311, M/Th 11:30-12:15, after class, and by appointment. Bulletin Description Social factors conditioning the composition and enjoyment of literature. The place of literature (oral or written) as an institution in several historical periods or cultures. Abstract The innovations of literary modernism occurred in the early Twentieth-Century climate of intellectual, social, and technological upheaval. In that period of fervent cultural conflict, avant-garde magazines constituted the primary publishing forum for what was new in art and thought. Their pages juxtaposed poems with graphical advertisements from local businesses or other magazines; fiction installments appeared, perhaps, between social-critical essays and artistic manifestos; reader correspondence critiqued various elements of a publication s output. Those elements, in being editorially arranged, constitute a peculiar kind of unity that puts into conversation various genres and even conflicting ideologies in the same bound series. Most of the works now in the modernist canon such as H.D. s imagist poems and James Joyce s Ulysses were produced by that networked and discursive magazine culture. Jason Harding reminds us that every contribution to intellectual debate is conditioned by the means of its dissemination and reception: literary journalism is not a private speculation in a vacuum, rather an intervention in an ongoing cultural conversation, most immediately a dialogue with a shifting set of interlocking periodical structures and networks (1). This course will actively examine some of the periodicals, along with the works they contain, as they participate in this exciting culture of innovation. We will consider how social conditions influenced the media of dissemination among various networks of writers, arriving at a nuanced sense of how avantgarde literary cultures related to each other and to the mass print market. In that way, we will seek to arrive at an understanding of British and American literary modernism based on how its authors read and wrote, and how these networks interacted. As a corollary, Harding s statement will serve as a premise to examine the medium of our own reading and writing as it is performed on the course website. Course Website Our course website is not only an information hub but the place where collaborative work will happen. You will perform several research-oriented assignments in small groups, the results of which will be posted as pages on the website. In that way, you will make it an archive of scholarship and research ideas for this emerging branch of modernist studies. There might be an occasional reading response assignment on the website, but you are encouraged to write blog posts, insert links, and add or edit content at any time. Remember, it s your site, so make the most of it.

2 Resources Throughout this course, the Modernist Journals Project ( hosted at Brown University and led by Sean Latham (University of Tulsa) and Robert Scholes, will be a primary source. It contains digitized versions of British avant-garde magazines from the early Twentieth Century. We will also be using the Brooklyn College library and probably other CUNY and city libraries to look at original or reproduced materials in print. Required Texts Most readings are in the course packet, available at Far Better Copy (43 Hillel Pl.) for $ Readings marked with a (D) are to be downloaded from the course website. Grading Class Participation 20% Presentations 20% Website Projects 25% Final Project 35% Attendance Since we have only ten meetings, each one counts. More than one absence will result in a failing grade for the course. Week 1: Modernism and Reading Publics M 6/30 Introduction. What is modernism?
