Review :

"An invaluable resource for literary theorists and modernism scholars ... Highly recommended." Choice

"A handbook, yes, but so much more: an inspiriting demonstration of the divergent, energetic, and innovative approaches that are transforming our sense of how modernism was, is, and one day might be understood. Indispensable, whatever your level of engagement with modernist studies." Maria DiBattista, Princeton University

"Jean-Michel Rabaté's expertly assembled Handbook of Modernist Studies rereads Modernist literary texts through the lens of the most recent and up-to-date Continental theory. The 25 essays included here are as comprehensive and authoritative as they are sophisticated." Marjorie Perloff

"This superb collection of new essays by leading figures in the field provides the reader with a satisfyingly complete yet also excitingly cutting-edge introduction to the study of Modernism in our time ... Indispensible for both experts and newcomers to the field." Sianne Ngai, Stanford University
