Modernism and Post-War Literature Collection
User Collection PublicThe Modernism and Post-War Literature Collection is comprised of works created by authors associated with modernism, a literary movement with contested dates, but largely regarded as taking place between 1910 and 1940. Authors featured here include Mary Butts (1890-1937), Robert Graves (1895-1985), James Joyce (1882-1941), Wyndham Lewis (1882-1957), and Ezra Pound (1885-1972), as well as writers who produced work following WWII, such as Aidan Higgins (1927-2015), identified as late modernists or influenced by modernism.
Intellectuals and artists affiliated with parallel movements in other disciplines during the same period, such as modern art, are also found in this collection, as seen in the correspondence of Herbert Read (1893-1968) and photography of Gisèle Freund (1908-2000).

Also a weathered San Juan from the baker's (5 pes) and an oil painting picture of three rabbits by a Soller primitive (chocolate maker by trade): we gave him 60 pesetas: it was the first he had ever permitted himself to sell – mostly they were scriptural copies. Name, Pastor. Two more drafts of Lines to Myself , and reading Gordon's life: which was such a give-away that it made one ashamed. Posada: replastering going on in entrada , nearly done. Window in sitting-room in and plastered. Comidor Comedor ready for plastering and kitchen window has shutters fixed. Strenge gave Laura open work gloves. Up very late (third night running) reading Gordon & Molly. At the end Laura wrote Gordon a frank letter about it. Photographs came, some very good.
