d a radio that connected the house with the outside world, and perhaps a telephone, a camera, a typewriter, or a sewing machine. like the businessman protagonist of sinclair lewis's novel babbitt (1922), the average american approved of these machines because they were modern and because most were american inventions and american-made. americans of the "roaring twenties" fell in love with other modern entertainments. most people went to the movies once a week. although prohibition -- a nationwide ban on the production, transport, and sale of alcohol instituted through the 18th amendment to the u.s. constitution -- began in 1919, underground "speakeasies" and nightclubs proliferated, featuring jazz music, cocktails, and daring modes of dress and dance. dancing, moviegoing, automobile touring, and radio were national crazes. american women, in particular, felt liberated. many had left farms and villages for homefront duty in american cities during world war i, and had become …

0th-century american novelist, employed freudian elements in all his works, as did virtually all serious american fiction writers after world war i. despite outward gaiety, modernity, and unparalleled material prosperity, young americans of the 1920s were "the lost generation" -- so named by literary portraitist gertrude stein. without a stable, traditional structure of values, the individual lost a sense of identity numerous novels, notably hemingway's the sun also rises (1926) and fitzgerald's this side of paradise (1920), evoke the extravagance and disillusionment of the lost generation. in t.s. eliot's influential long poem the waste land (1922), western civilization is symbolized by a bleak desert in desperate need of rain (spiritual renewal). the world depression of the 1930s affected most of the population of the united states. workers lost their jobs, and factories shut down; businesses and banks failed; farmers, unable to harvest, transport, or sell their crops, could not pay …

asso were doing the same thing, he in art and she in writing. using simple, concrete words as counters, she developed an abstract, experimental prose poetry. the childlike quality of stein's simple vocabulary recalls the bright, primary colors of modern art, while her repetitions echo the repeated shapes of abstract visual compositions. by dislocating grammar and punctuation, she achieved new "abstract" meanings as in her influential collection tender buttons (1914), which views objects from different angles, as in a cubist painting: a table a table means does it not my dear it means a whole steadiness. is it likely that a change. a table means more than a glass even a looking glass is tall. meaning, in stein's work, was often subordinated to technique, just as subject was less important than shape in abstract visual art. subject and technique became inseparable in both the visual and literary art of the …

ms cultivated a photographic clarity of image; his aesthetic dictum was "no ideas but in things." henry james, william faulkner, and many other american writers experimented with fictional points of view (some are still doing so). james often restricted the information in the novel to what a single character would have known. faulkner's novel the sound and the fury (1929) breaks up the narrative into four sections, each giving the viewpoint of a different character (including a mentally retarded boy). to analyze such modernist novels and poetry, a school of "new criticism" arose in the united states, with a new critical vocabulary. new critics hunted the "epiphany" (moment in which a character suddenly sees the transcendent truth of a situation, a term derived from a holy saint's appearance to mortals); they "examined" and "clarified" a work, hoping to "shed light" upon it through their "insights." 3.poetry 1914-1945: experiments in form …
