Syllabus
  • This course will look at developments in modernity and modernism in the British context, focusing on classic works by British modernist novelists, namely, The Rainbow by D. H. Lawrence, Ulysses by James Joyce, Mrs Dalloway and To the Lighthouse by Virginia Woolf and Malone Dies by Samuel Beckett. These works will be looked at from the perspective of subsequent critical perspectives, which the works themselves did much to inspire, including those of feminism and post-structuralism. We will be particularly concerned with looking at the shared characteristics of these works and their social, cultural and political potential and implications for the present day. One of three courses in the BCS Language, Culture, Theory series.
