Often associated with a conservative aesthetic of wholeness, permanence, and autonomy, ekphrastic writing nonetheless also involves excess, failure, and mimesis, conjuring an aesthetic sense of closure and unity out of impossible imitations. This book suggests that this particular interplay between imitation and autonomy resonates with many of the foundational insights of queer theory: the way it situates identity as an effect of performativity, artifice, and mimesis. 000756995 588__ $$aDescription based on online resource; title from home page (viewed on September 9, 2015). 000756995 650_0 $$aModernism (Literature)$$zUnited States. 000756995 650_0 $$aEkphrasis. 000756995 650_0 $$aArt in literature. 000756995 650_0 $$aQueer theory$$zUnited States. 000756995 650_0 $$aModernism (Aesthetics)$$zUnited States. 000756995 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aGlavey, Brian.$$tWallflower avant-garde.$$dNew York : Oxford University Press, 2016$$z9780190202651$$w(DLC) 2015003835 000756995 85280 $$bebk$$hOxford Scholarship Online 000756995 85640 $$3Oxford scholarship online$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/acprof:oso/9780190202651.001.0001$$zOnline Access 000756995 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:756995$$pGLOBAL_SET 000756995 980__ $$aEBOOK 000756995 980__ $$aBIB 000756995 982__ $$aEbook 000756995 983__ $$aOnline
