Auden, "Old Passports," and New Borders. 520 "Modernism and Mobility pursues a literary and historical paradox: cosmopolitanism and international travel characterize modernism, and yet the years between the two world wars were marked by strengthening technologies of mobility control. Using the rise of the passport to telescope the changing constitution of mobile national identity, Bridget Chalk argues that the cosmopolitan and transnational experience of the modernist period was fundamentally structured by the definition, categorization and management of nationality. In so doing, Chalk delineates a crucial relationship between narrative as a governmental and social mode of understanding and literary narrative experimentation. The writers examined range from colonial immigrants (Claude McKay, Jean Rhys) to privileged expatriates (Gertrude Stein, Ford Madox Ford) and disgruntled citizens (D.H. Lawrence, Christopher Isherwood), whose works reconfigure linear progressive narrative to provide challenging and alternative modes of representing individual and national identity.

Bridget Chalk traces changing conceptions of nationality in the work of travelling writers, including D.H. Lawrence, Gertrude Stein and Claude McKay. Modernist experiments in narrative demonstrate the inextricability of state pressures on mobile identity and cosmopolitan experience"-- |cProvided by publisher. 650 0 Modernism (Literature) |0http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85086446 650 0 Cosmopolitanism in literature. |0http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2006006482 650 0 National characteristics in literature. |0http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85090007 650 0 Globalization |xSocial aspects. |0http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2008115204 902 yj |bs |6a |7m |dv |f1 |e20150109 904 yj |ba |hm |cb |e20150109 914 (OCoLC)ocn881656045 |bOCoLC |cmatch |d20240703 |eprocessed |f881656045 956 42 |3Cover image |uhttp://www.netread.com/jcusers2/bk1388/826/9781137439826/image/lgcover.9781137439826.jpg
