British novels of the 1930s are often neglected in English literary history. The decade, situated between two world wars, was characterised by political conflict, economic instability and intellectual allegiances to both communism and fascism. Aesthetically, the continuous influence of modernism as well as traditional forms like the domestic novel but also more direct responses to the changing political climate shaped the literary landscape of the 1930s. In this course we will study a number of these literary texts and their contexts.
Literature Christopher Isherwood, Goodbye to Berlin
Jean Rhys, Good Morning, Midnight
Nancy Mitford, Wigs on Green
Evelyn Waugh, Vile Bodies

Further texts will be announced at the beginning of the semester.
