“Vetter’s edition resets a long-standing imbalance in our perception of H.D. It turns out that modernism’s consummate Imagist started off as a short story writer—and that she continued making stories as she turned toward the long poem in her postwar career. Vetter offers lively and informed orientations to these recovered stories, making them accessible to … Continue reading The Usual Star and The Moment

Dissensuous Modernism
“DeMaagd’s timely study examines the changing sensescape in modernist aesthetics and gives the long-denigrated ‘lower’ senses of smell, taste, and touch their interpretive due, not only uncovering the gendering of sensory experience, but also demonstrating the extent to which sensory practices crucially involve questions of class, sexual orientation, (dis)ability, and species.”—Vicki Tromanhauser, SUNY New Paltz … Continue reading Dissensuous Modernism

Affective Materialities
