Summary note
"Recent scandals and controversies in the academic world and in politics both in the U.S. and in Europe have made fascism an important contemporary topic. Thirteen essays offer a wide-ranging multidisciplinary reassessment of the impact of fascist ideology on the novels, poetry, criticism, and polemics of such major European and American writers as Pound, Wyndham Lewis, Marinetti, Céline, Montherlant, de Man, and Heidegger; on such artistic movements as Triunfalismo in Spain, Futurism in Italy, and Primitivism in Germany; and on film aesthetics and such cultural events as the 1932 Exhibition of the Fascist Revolution in Rome. The traditional assumption that fascism is an aberration antithetical to culture is no longer tenable. As a whole this volume raises fundamental questions about the relation of modernism and fascism and the attraction of fascism to a broad spectrum of intellectuals, artists, and writers." -- Back Cover.
