Hey,
so I'm trying to figure out all the major works of modernism especially in countries that might not get as much global attention.

I'll start the list as follows:
>Novels/novelists

>Conrad - HoD, Lord Jim, Nigger of the Narcissus, etc.
>Faulkner - A,A!, AILD, LiA, TSatF
>Joyce - Everything minus Finnegans Wake
>Woolf - To the Lighthouse, The Waves, Orlando, Mrs. Dalloway
>Fitzgerald
>Hamsun - Hunger
>Kafka - The Trial and The Castle especially
>Mann - Buddenbrooks, Death in Venice, Magic Mountain, etc
>Musil - The Man Without Qualities
>Proust - ISoLT
>Stein
>João Guimarães Rosa - The Devil to Pay in the Backlands

>Poets
>Mina Loy
>William Carlos Williams
>Yeats
>T.S. Eliot
>e.e. cummings
>Rilke

For this list let's just leave out the transitional writers between modernism and post-modernism: (Nabokov, Beckett, Borges)
>>
>no Salinger
>>
>>7865381
>Everything minus Finnegans Wake

why tho
>>
>>7865398
Too transitional between modernism and post-modernism
>>
>implying a
>implying b
>implying c
and
>implying d
>>
>>7865385
That's the whole purpose of this thread...
>>
Dino Buzzati's Tartar Steppe needs to be included.
>>
>>7865421
Thank you
>>
>>7865381
Also I forgot Benjamin's Acrade's Project (although not a novel by any means)
>>
>no Dos Passos
>>
Ezra Pound of course
Ford Madox Ford
Hemingway personally, though I know he is not favoured around here
>>
>>7865381
Start with Lautreamont.
>>
>>7866571

Ezra Pound not included on the already too short list of poets is a bad joke.

You're also missing Ford Madox Ford, D. H. Lawrence, Samuel Beckett, Wallace Stevens, Hart Crane, Anna Akhmatova, as well as Joseph Conrad's best novel, "The Secret Agent".
>>
>>7865381
Fitzgerald: This Side of Paradise, The Great Gatsby, and Tender is the night.
>>
>Edouard Dujardin - We'll to the Woods no More

It's the first modernist novel.
>>
>>7865381
You're missing both Pound and Crane.
>>
Before I forget,

>Heinrich Boll - Billiards at Half-Past Seven
>Hermann Broch - The Sleepwalkers
>Andrei Bely - Petersburg
>>
K H A R M S
>>
>>7866616
This anon knows what's up.
>>
Mallarme, Rimbaud, Apollinaire, Valery
>>
>>7866616
Frost and Auden too

(will probably post more replies as I remember more names)
>>
>>7866669
you shittin me

Rimbaud was before modernism you cuck

in fact all of these cunts came before Pound even set foot in England
>>
>>7866616
Relax
>>
What about duncan fraser williams' "perpetual holiday" (1935)? Its a british novel about a cricket academy with themes of modern alienation. There's a flipbook in the novel called "perpetual holiday" and when ppl see it they just want to flip it over and over and over until they die.
>>
>>7866730
top kek
>>
>>7866604
>Lautreamont
nice
>>
You forgot Pound's Cantos and Lewis' Human Age trilogy.
>>
>>7865421

Symbolist is not modernism
>>
Thomas Mann's Buddenbrooks is debatable. Yes, plot wise it is about the conflicts of confronting modernism, but stylistically the story is much more 19th century realist / naturalist. It wasn't until Mann's later works where he developed his technique in a fashion more akin to 'modernism'.
>>
I don't think there is a definition of modernism that links all of the works you have listed.
>>
>>7865381
Pound - cantos, Hugh Selwyn mauberley
D.H. Lawrence - sons and lovers, poetry
Andrei Bely - Petersburg
Italian Svevo - zeno's conscience
>>
>>7871951
Miroslav krleza - ballads of petricia kerempuh
