On Deconstruction

Detailed info

The term "modernism" is central to any discussion of

twentieth-century literature and critical theory.
Astradur Eysteinsson here maintains that the concept
of modernism does not emerge directly from the
literature it subsumes, but is in fact a product of critical
practices relating to nontraditional literature.
Intervening in these practices, and correlating them
with modernist works and with modern literary theory,
Eysteinsson undertakes a comprehensive
reexamination of the idea of modernism.
