Disciplining modernism

This collection tells a story of disciplinary disorder; Disciplining Modernism brings together a group of leading scholars from various disciplines to confront the terminological confusion in the use of modernism and modernity across disciplines, including anthropology, history, the visual arts, literary studies, comparative literature, film studies, Caribbean studies, sociology, and economics. These fourteen essays use artifacts as different as a Catholic pilgrimage shrine, a Caribbean sculpture, a Chinese poet, and the internal combustion engine to explore the uses and the limits of modernism and modernity, undisciplining modernist studies in the process. As Susan Stanford Friedman puts it in her Afterword to the collection, 'Disciplining Modernism might just as aptly have been titled Undisciplining Modernism.'.
