Europa! Europa?: The Avant-Garde, Modernism and the Fate of a Continent (European Avant-Garde and Modernism Studies)

Professor Sascha Bru (Editor), Peter Nicholls (Editor), Jan Baetens (Editor), Tania Rum (Editor), Hubert van den Berg (Editor), Benedikt Hjartarson (Editor), and Bru Sascha (Editor)

The first volume of the new series "European Avant-Garde and Modernism Studies" focuses on the relation between the avant-garde, modernism and Europe. It combines interdisciplinary and intermedial research on experimental aesthetics and poetics. The articles seek to bring out the complexity of the European avant-garde and modernism by relating it to Europe's intricate history, multiculturalism and multilingualism; they aim to inquire into the divergent cultural views on Europe taking shape in avant-garde and modernist practices and chart a composite image of the "other Europe(s)" that have emerged from the (contemporary) avant-garde and experimental modernism.
