New #ModernistMoments essay: @ScarletrClark of @UoS_smmi examines the role of auto-ethnography in Woolf's "The Years" (1937) - how can collective self-scrutiny help create a new vision and combat hostile nationalism? Read here: moderniststudiesireland.org/2022/08/19/woo…

The latest essay in our #ModernistMoments series delves into the realm of architecture: Bill Freind of @RowanUniversity explores how Philip Johnson's fascist politics are inseparable from the development of architecture's "International Style".

Thrilled to announce the latest #ModernistMoments essay, from @EmmaMarns: "'People like that don’t expect sacrifices from us': Katherine Mansfield’s echoes in the Covid-19 era." A truly timely reminder of the importance of Mansfield's short fiction... moderniststudiesireland.org/2022/07/14/emm…

It didn’t arrive in time to wear on #Bloomsday, but my @Mod_Ireland tee is super cute & comfy to wear while I recover from post-Symposium COVID. Feeling super proud to have designed these, so please do check out the #Ulysses100 collection on Redbubble: rdbl.co/3a8dNSV

Thanks to @Mod_Ireland and @MyExplodingPen, we're all sorted for this #Bloomsday and the next... But this does also feel like it could be a first act of childhood rebellion against a #Woolfian parent (even if it was said #modernist parent who purchased them!).
