Modernism: Cause and Quintessence redefines Modernism by presenting a theory that claims that the mechanics of history have generated cycles of Modernism in the past and that since the Industrial Revolution in Europe, there have been waves of Modernism whereby the cycles of Modernism follow one another in rapid succession to the extent that they overlap.

The theory is applied to ten literary texts to show how literature manifests the features of Modernism in deceptively different ways.
