William Faulkner: High Modernism And Postmodernism Art
[ send me this essay ]
8 pages in length. The period of high modernism, which occurred between the years of 1910 and 1930, established a highbrow set of standards by which artists were to abide if they were to be considered distinguished within their particular craft. This stringent set of rules represented a distinct separation between what some creative minds believed to be the true essence of art and what others contended was the only way in which art can be wholly appreciated. According to Virginia Woolf, the highbrow was "a man or a woman of thoroughbred intelligence who rides his mind at a gallop across country in pursuit of an idea." Other notable writers, such as William Faulkner, sought to uphold some of the tenets of high modernism as it moved into postmodernism after 1930, while at the same time attempting to bring a new view of time and consciousness, and stress loneliness and existential isolation.
