The modern period is marked by a wide range of literary forms; styles; and content pioneered by the writers of the first quarter of this century. This course focuses on the main writers of the next 30-40 years; whose works illustrate the ever-expanding scope of the Modern novel. These works also show how changes in morals; social values; political stuctures; and technology were altering the artist's reaction to his/her new role in the world.
