Modernism and the Aristocracy

Monsters of English Privilege

Beschreibung

The early twentieth century saw a radical redrawing of Britain's social and political map as its hereditary aristocracy was pushed from the centre to the margins of the nation's affairs. This book traces the literary consequences of the modernist preoccupation with aristocracy that this social change inspired.
