Reviews

Cusack and Marshall's collection is a very useful one that will help provide scholarly discussion on the topic of modernism by reinforcing the idea that modernist aesthetics reach just as much into the ancient past as they do into the future. - Kristen Marangoni, Tulsa Community College, Literature & Aesthetics 19 (1), 2019.
