This book comprehensively rethinks the relationship between G.K. Chesterton and a range of key literary modernists. When Chesterton and modernism have previously been considered in relation to one another, the dynamic has typically been conceived as one of mutual hostility, grounded in Chestertons advocacy of popular culture and modernist literatures appeal to an aesthetic elite. In setting out to challenge this binary narrative, Shallcross establishes for the first time the depth and ambivalence of Chestertons engagement with modernism, as well as the reciprocal fascination of leading modernist writers with Chestertons fiction and thought.
Shallcross argues that this dynamic was defined by various forms of parody and performance, and that these histrionic expressions of cultural play not only suffused the era, but found particular embodiment in Chestertons public persona. This reading not only enables a far-reaching reassessment of Chestertons corpus, but also produces a framework through which to re-evaluate the creative and critical projects of a host of modernist writersmost sustainedly, T.S. Eliot, Wyndham Lewis, and Ezra Poundthrough the prism of Chesterton's disruptive presence. The result is an innovative study of the literary performance of popular and high culture in early twentieth-century Britain, which adds a valuable new perspective to continuing critical debates on the parameters of modernism.
