Deploying recent controversies of periodization and Beckett’s placement within various iterations of Modernism (High, Late, Belated, Post, and combinations thereof), this collection makes an integrated, compelling case for Beckett Studies as an extended critical intervention in such debate.” —Mark Byron, University of Sydney, Australia
Linked to the Centre for Modern European Literature at the University of Kent, UK, this series offers a space for new research that challenges the limitations of national, linguistic and cultural borders within Europe and engages in the comparative study of literary traditions in the modern period.
