Modernism Links

‘Abeceda’  by Vitĕzslav Nezval & Karel Teige (Czechoslovakia, 1923)
Glasgow University has this page of links to a number of excellent Modernism-related websites. Some of these might be of interest if you are taking my Modernism and British Poetry course, and/or Modernism and the British Novel. There is so much rubbish on the internet that you should be careful what resources you are using - these are all reliable sites.

One interesting site linked to is that of the Modernism: Designing a New World exhibition, which took place at the Victoria and Albert museum in London four years ago. You can see images from the exhibition on the website. They serve as a useful reminder that Modernism influenced all areas of cultural activity, including design and fashion (something I know one or two of you are interested in).

There is also a select list of graduate courses at the bottom of the page, for those of you who might be thinking of going on to study this period at a higher level, perhaps in the UK (again, I know this applies to at least one of you!).
