James F. Knapp presents a rigorous and intellectually compelling analysis of how writers such as Yeats, Lawrence, and others responded to—and were shaped by—the mechanization of labor and the alienation it produced in modern life. Drawing on both close textual reading and broader social theory, the study illustrates how modernist aesthetics were not merely a retreat into art for art's sake, but a complex negotiation with the changing conditions of human productivity and creativity. Written in an authoritative and academic tone, it offers scholars and serious readers a fresh framework for understanding the political and economic undercurrents running through canonical modernist texts.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48810605314267,"sku":"2026200006658-SECONDHAND","price":20.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/3326f7fa-9290-419b-9552-c6e44951a615.png?v=1779805811","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200006658-secondhand-literary-modernism-and-the-transformation-of-work","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
