Abstract (en)

Interdisciplinary study reappraises the literary and artistic contribution of women to modernism and in particular the self representation and construction of artistic identity. Taking a comparative case study approach, examines the ways in which women, including Natalie Barney, Romaine Brooks, Virginia Woolf, Vanessa Bell, Gertrude Stein, Marie Laurencin, Djuna Barnes and Nina Hamnett, responded to modernism, and the manner in which their work has been positioned in relation to that of men.
