- Description
- This book analyses the literary production of Irene Némirovsky (1903-1942) literary production in its relationship to the literary and cultural context of the inter-war period in France. It examines topics of central importance to our understanding of the literary field in France in the period, such as the close relationship between politics and literature: the historical, political, cultural and personal legacies of the First World War: the so-called ‘crisis of the novel’ and the attempt to create and develop new narrative forms: the phenomenon of Russian emigration to Paris in the wake of the Russian Revolution and Civil War: the possibilities for the creation of a French-Jewish identity and mode of writing: and the threat of fascism and the approach of the Second World War.

- Description
- Surrealist Masculinities offers an exploration of how surrealist visual production was shaped by constructions of gender and sexuality, particularly masculinity, in the 1920s and early 1930s. Amy Lyford builds on feminist critical approaches to surrealism, which have viewed the female body in surrealism as symptomatic of male misogyny: yet she also departs from such work by arguing that representations of an anxious, ambivalent, or perverse masculinity were integral to the movement's critique of France's 'return to order' in the years following World War I. This book analyzes surrealist work in relation to the history of surrealism and investigates how surrealist artists and writers appropriated contemporary medical science, advertising, and sexology in their quest to undermine the status quo.
