Literature In A Changing Age is a book written by Ashley Horace Thorndike, originally published in 1920. The book explores the evolution of literature during a time of significant cultural, social, and technological change. Thorndike examines the impact of these changes on the literary world, from the rise of modernism and the avant-garde to the emergence of new forms of media and communication.The book is divided into several chapters, each focusing on a different aspect of literature in the changing age. Thorndike begins by discussing the historical context of the period, including the impact of World War I and the changing role of women in society. He then goes on to explore the various literary movements that emerged during this time, from the Imagists and the Futurists to the Surrealists and the Dadaists.Throughout the book, Thorndike also examines the impact of new technologies on literature, including the rise of radio, film, and other forms of mass media. He argues that these new technologies have fundamentally changed the way we consume and create literature, and that writers must adapt to these changes in order to remain relevant.Overall, Literature In A Changing Age provides a fascinating glimpse into the literary world of the early 20th century, and offers insights into the ways in which literature has evolved in response to the changing world around it.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
