- Zusatztext
- Regarding the Popular charts the complex relationship between the avant-gardes and modernisms on the one hand and popular culture on the other. Covering (neo-)avant-gardists and modernists from various European countries, this second volume in the series European Avant-Garde and Modernism Studies explores the nature of so-called low culture, dealing with aspects as diverse as the everyday and the folkloric. Regarding the Popular charts the many ways in which the allegedly high modernists and avant-gardists looked at and represented the low. As such, this book will appeal to all those with an interest in the dynamic of modern experimental arts and literatures.
