T.E. Hulme and the Question of Modernism

Though T. E. Hulme was a poet, critic, philosopher, aesthetician, and political theorist who helped define several major aesthetic and political movements, he has until recently been neglected by scholars. Each of the contributors to this collection highlights a different aspect of Hulme's work; taken together the essays demonstrate a shared belief in Hulme's decisive importance to the emergence of modernism and to the many categories that still govern our thinking about it.
