Descripción Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Illegitimate Freedom: Informality in Modernist Literature, 1900 - 1940 is the first study of informality in modernist literature. Differentiating informality from intimacy in its introduction, the book discusses the informal in relation with sensory experience, aesthetic presentation, ethical deliberation or action, and social attitudes within modernist works. It examines these works for particular nuances of the word "informality" in each of its chapters in the following thematic sequence: informality that offers humour, interpretive freedom, and promiscuity as counters to self-absorption in works by Virginia Woolf; rebuttals to male priorities in liberalism through "feminine informality" in several short stories by Katherine Mansfield; contempt for colloquialism and intimacy, tinged with class-anxieties and crises of attitude, in T. S. Eliots poetry; resistance to disgust in James Joyces novels; and the fusion of irreverence, protest, and praise in W. H. Audens writings before 1940. The books conclusion considers the risks of informality through a discussion of what it calls "inverted dignity." The theoretical aspects of the book offer insights into Lockean liberalism, the ethical dimensions of what Helene Cixous termed "feminine writing," relations of sublimity and domesticity, Sigmund Freuds arguments on humour and melancholia, and recent affect theorysas well as Immanuel Kants and Friedrich Nietzschesviews on disgust, linking these with modernism. This wide range of engagement makes this study relevant for those interested in literary studies, critical theory, and philosophy. Differentiating informality from intimacy in its introduction, Illegitimate Freedom: Informality in Modernist Literature, 1900 - 1940 discusses the informal in relation with sensory experience, aesthetic presentation, ethical deliberation or action, and social attitudes within modernist works.
