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"--$$cProvided by publisher. 000456697 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 000456697 650_0 $$aModernism (Literature) 000456697 650_0 $$aSatire$$xHistory and criticism. 000456697 650_0 $$aEmotions in literature. 000456697 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aGreenberg, Jonathan Daniel, 1968-$$tModernism, satire, and the novel.$$dCambridge ; New York : Cambridge University Press, 2011$$z9781107008496$$w(DLC) 2011009239$$w(OCoLC)707626655 000456697 8520_ $$bacq 000456697 85280 $$bebk$$hEBSCOhost 000456697 85640 $$3EBSCOhost$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site&db=nlebk&db=nlabk&AN=408965$$zOnline Access 000456697 85642 $$3Cover image$$uhttp://assets.cambridge.org/97811070/08496/cover/9781107008496.jpg 000456697 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:456697$$pGLOBAL_SET 000456697 980__ $$aEBOOK 000456697 980__ $$aBIB 000456697 982__ $$aEbook 000456697 983__ $$aOnline 000456697 994__ $$a92$$bISE
