Modernism's Mythic Pose

Auteur: Preston, Carrie J. (Assistant Professor of English and Women's, Gender, and Sexuality Studies, Assistant Professor of English and Women's, Gender, and Sexuality Studies, Boston University)
Editeur: Oxford University Press Inc
This book recovers the tradition of Delsartism, a popular international movement that promoted bodily and vocal solo performances, particularly for women. This strain of classical-antimodernism shaped dance, film, and poetics. Its central figure, the mythic pose, expressed both skepticism and nostalgia and functioned as an ambivalent break from modernity.
