Apocalypse and After: Modern Strategy and Postmodern Tactics in Pound, Williams, and Zukofsky
Examines the development of Modernism into Postmodernism as it occurs in the works of three major poets
Apocalypse and After attends closely to the social and political dimensions of the development of Modernism into Postmodernism as embodied in the works of three major poets. Modernism’s struggle to develop a new global strategy was to a great extent a response to the catastrophe of World War I, while the Postmodern resort to fragmentary tactics stems from the failure of Modernist strategy both to avert World War II and to come to terms with the horror of the atomic bomb.
