Produktbeschreibung
Bridging modernist studies and science fiction scholarship Modernism and Time Machines places the fascination with time in canonical works of twentieth-century literature and art side-by-side with the rise of time-travel narratives and alternate histories in popular culture.

Taken together, the modernist time-obsession and the fantasy of moving in time help us to rethink the shapes of time, the consistency of timespace and the nature of history. Charles Tung is Associate Professor of English at Seattle University.
