- In this lecture, Dr Madeleine Davies (University of Reading) explores the genre of literary modernism, focusing in particular on: (i) its development from the literature of the Victorian period; (ii) the importance of the ordinary or the everyday (“the ordinary mind on an ordinary day”); (iii) the difference in plot and character compared to the Victorian novel; (iv) the use of symbolism; and (v) the emphasis on sexuality.
This lecture is part of a larger course on Virginia Woolf's Mrs Dalloway. The full course can be found here: www.massolit.io/courses/woolf...

Or the proto-modernist Poe (THE TELL-TALE HEART, for example)., though not in the form of a novel, and/or the Surrealists/Dada-iss's experiments. W.H. Hodgson's HOUSE ON THE BORDERLAND---not so sure about that one.
