PRINT OUT on the structure of MODERN BRITISH LITERATURE

Forces Behind Modernism

· The sense that our culture has no center, no values.

· Paradigm shift

· from the closed, finite, measurable, cause-and-effect universe of the 19th century to an open, relativistic, changing, strange universe;

Characteristics of Modernism in Literature

· Literature Exhibits Perspectivism

· Meaning comes from the individual’s perspective and is thus personalized;

· A single story might be told from the perspective of several different people, with the assumption that the “truth” is somewhere in the middle

Characteristics of Modernism in Literature

· Inner psychological reality or “interiority” is represented

· Stream of consciousness—portraying the character’s inner monologue

Characteristic of Modernism in Literature

· Perception of language changes:

· No longer seen as transparent, allowing us to “see through” to reality;

· But now considered the way an individual constructs reality;

· Language is “thick” with multiple meanings and varied connotative forces.

Characteristic of Modernism in Literature

· Emphasis on the Experimental

· Art is artifact rather than reality;

· Organized non-sequentially

· Experience portrayed as layered, allusive, discontinuous, using fragmentation and juxtaposition.

· Ambiguous endings—open endings which are seen as more representative of reality.
