By promoting an antisentimental education, modernism denied the authority of emotion to guarantee moral and literary value. Instead, it fostered sophisticated, detached and apparently cruel attitudes toward pain and suffering. This sensibility challenged the novel's humanistic tradition, set ethics and aesthetics into conflict and fundamentally altered the ways that we know and feel. Through lively and original readings of works by Evelyn Waugh, Stella Gibbons, Nathanael West, Djuna Barnes, Samuel Beckett and others, this book analyzes a body of literature - late modernist satire - that can appear by turns aloof, sadistic, hilarious, ironic and poignant, but which continually questions inherited modes of feeling. By recognizing the centrality of satire to modernist aesthetics, Greenberg offers not only a new chapter in the history of satire but a persuasive new idea of what made modernism modern"--$$cProvided by publisher. 001398578 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 001398578 650_0 $$aModernism (Literature) 001398578 650_0 $$aSatire$$xHistory and criticism. 001398578 650_0 $$aEmotions in literature. 001398578 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aGreenberg, Jonathan Daniel, 1968-$$tModernism, satire, and the novel.$$dCambridge ; New York : Cambridge University Press, 2011$$z9781107008496$$w(DLC) 2011009239$$w(OCoLC)707626655 001398578 8520_ $$bacq 001398578 85280 $$bebk$$hProQuest Ebook Central Academic Complete 001398578 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central Academic Complete$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/usiricelib-ebooks/detail.action?docID=807205$$zOnline Access 001398578 85642 $$3Cover image$$uhttp://assets.cambridge.org/97811070/08496/cover/9781107008496.jpg 001398578 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:456697$$pGLOBAL_SET 001398578 980__ $$aEBOOK 001398578 980__ $$aBIB 001398578 982__ $$aEbook 001398578 983__ $$aOnline 001398578 994__ $$a92$$bISE
