1st printing. Edited by Jonathan Najarian. Contributions by David M. Ball, Scott Bukatman, Hillary Chute, Jean Lee Cole, Louise Kane, Matthew Levay, Andrei Molotiu, Jonathan Najarian, Katherine Roeder, Noa Saunders, Clémence Sfadj, Nick Sturm, Glenn Willmott, and Daniel Worden. The first collection to engage with the fascinating overlap between comics and modernism. Since the early 1990s, cartoonist Art Spiegelman has made the case that comics are the natural inheritor of the aesthetic tradition associated with the modernist movement of the early twentieth century. In recent years, scholars have begun to place greater import on the shared historical circumstances of early comics and literary and artistic modernism. COMICS AND MODERNISM: HISTORY, FORM, AND CULTURE is an interdisciplinary consideration of myriad social, cultural, and aesthetic connections. Softcover, 6-in. x 9-in., 278 pages, Text (with B&W Illustrations and Photos). Cover price $30.00.
