A Detailed Study of the Modernist Literature

Author(s)	Ranjan Kumar

Abstract	Modernism in literature, influenced by industrialisation and urbanisation, emphasizes new forms of expression, as highlighted by Ezra Pound's call to "Make it new." It reflects a response to societal changes and a sense of disillusionment following World War I, as epitomized by W. B. Yeats' line "Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold." T.S. Eliot’s The Waste Land (1922) exemplifies the search for redemption in a fragmented world. The paper will explore the characteristics, key figures, and impact of Modernist literature.
