CMPL 391 - European Modernism & World

FC ARHU CD WADV

4 credits
Between 1880 and 1930, Europe was convulsed by wars, technological advances, and social transformations. Writers and artists responded by creating revolutionary new forms, techniques, and movements ‘such as Cubism, Dadaism, and Surrealism’ and their innovations carried philosophical, political, and aesthetic models across the 20th-century world. We will study why and how certain non-European authors received, rejected, and/or recombined central aspects of European Modernism. Diversity, Post-1900.
