Book Description Soft cover. Condition: Good. 1st Paperback Edition. Paperback. Slight foxing to edge. Wear to edges of cover. In this book Professor Flower assesses the contribution to French literature of the politically motivated creative writing of the first half of the twentieth century. The Dreyfus Affair, the First World War and the idea of physical and moral decadence in the 1920s and 1930s are essential elements in a period in which political attitudes to are and literature in France changed fundamentally, and an increasingly large proportion of writers saw it as their duty to take sides in the social and political debate. This often extreme commitment, which for some writers crystallised in a longing for a return to authority and discipline or spiritual regeneration, and for others led to an acceptance of Communist Party directives and a hatred of 'bourgeois' values, was frequently at odds with the autonomy and integrity of the artistic conscience. Professor Flower's study examines a number of works in which writers ahave attempted to assimilate these two elements. 78 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions ,and all types of Academic Literature.).
