The
Centre for Modernism Studies in Australia is a UNSW research centre drawing
together a range of disciplinary strengths across three Faculties in the broad
area of cultural Modernism—literary, visual, philosophical, architectural,
theatrical, and musical. We understand Modernism to be the defiant gesture of
negation and liberation that overturns established ways of doing and being, and
sets human thought and perception on new roads of discovery and freedom.
Clustering around a diversity of “isms” in the late-nineteenth and
early-twentieth centuries, Modernism has its roots in the cultural revolution
of the Enlightenment, and extends to the lingering perceptual shocks of the
post-post-modernisms today.Taking a “long Modernism” view of cultural history,
the Centre fosters innovative research and collaborations between members of
staff, postdoctoral fellows, postgraduate students, and advanced undergraduate
students, as well as external scholars, in a range of activities and projects.
We seek to build a notional, regional, and international profile for Modernism
studies here at UNSW, and to provide a beachhead for global Modernism studies
on Australian shores.
