Publisher Summary 1
Williams (British and intellectual history, Central Connecticut State U.) examines the development of the historical theories of the British literary Modernists, as evidenced in the work of Yeats, Pound, Hulme, Ford, and Lawrence. The text is not a work of literary criticism, but rather a "collective intellectual biography" which considers the Modernists as thinkers as well as artists. Williams seeks to demonstrate how and why their thought collectively changed direction, and to reveal a new understanding of this group of literary figures and the time in which they were living. For literary and cultural historians. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)

Publisher Summary 3
Louise Williams explores the cyclical nature of historical memory in the work of five major Modernists: Yeats, Pound, Eliot, Ford and Lawrence. These Modernists, Williams argues, started their careers with historical assumptions derived from the nineteenth century. But their views on the universal structure of history, the abandonment of progress and the adoption of a cyclical sense of the past, were the result of the important conflicts and changes within the Modernist period. This wide ranging and inter-disciplinary study will be essential reading for anyone interested in modernist writing.
