Essay from the year 2017 in the subject Literature - Basics, grade: B+, , language: English, abstract: The current study attempts to explore the notion of the unpopular in relation to the two writers Wyndham Lewis and Marshall McLuhan. The notion of the unpopular is a defining factor for these two writers.
