Defines the interdisciplinary field of Rural Modernity through analysis of British literature, art and culture Rural Modernity in Britain argues that the rural areas of Britain were impacted by modernisation just as much if not more than urban and suburban areas. It is the first study of modernity and modernism to focus on rural people and places that experienced economic depression, the expansion of transportation and communication networks, the roll out of electricity, the loss of land, and the erosion of local identities. Who celebrated these changes? Who resisted them? Who documented them? Essays in this collection make the case that the rural means more than just the often-studied countryside of southern England, a retreat from the consequences of modernity; rather, the rural emerges as a source for new versions of the modern, with an active role in the formation and development of British experiences and representations of modernity. Key Features Introdues readersto concept of rural modernity that locates its critical intervention in fields of modernism and modernity studiesSplit into five sections addressing Networks, Landscapes, Communities, Heritage, and WarIncludes "In dialogue with" suggestions to guide readers across interdisciplinary contents of diverse chaptersContributors from England, Scotland, USA, New Zealand and Canada, representing fields of literature, art history, history, geography, and cultural studies
