BRITISH FIRST WORLD WAR PROSE, 1914-30
Writing disenchantment analyses the phenomenon of literary disenchantment
after the First World War. In this study, Andrew Frayn argues that it is not only
a response to the conflict, but a condition of industrial, urban modernity
whose language is used in writing both combatant and civilian accounts of
wartime experience. The beliefs which are negated must also be kept in
mind: courage, faith and honour were not wholly eradicated by the war. This is
the first detailed account of what it means to be enchanted and disenchanted
in war literature.
First World War literature is situated in the context of theories of decline,
decay and degeneration. Critics such as C. F. G. Masterman, Oswald Spengler
and Max Weber are invoked to demonstrate the development of these ideas
from the mid-nineteenth century alongside mass culture. Authors responded
critically to the conflict from its earliest days, but such expressions were
tacitly, sometimes even officially, circumscribed. The rise of disenchantment
to become the dominant narrative of the war is charted from stories of
pacifism and conscientious objection to the harsh criticisms of the war, and
the structures of modernity that enabled it, in the War Books Boom of 1928-
30. This shift is traced in texts, manuscript material, sales and review data.
This book discusses modernist authors such as Ford Madox Ford, D. H.
Lawrence and Virginia Woolf alongside middlebrow authors from H. G. Wells
to Rebecca West and long-forgotten bestsellers. These sometimes jarring
juxtapositions show the strained relationship between enchantment and
disenchantment in the war and the subsequent decade.
‘A nuanced, sophisticated book that advances its insights through careful
readings of works both iconic and very nearly forgotten. The pairing of high
modernist with mass-cultural novels is ingenious, and reveals the overarching
coherence of British culture in the Great War.
Stephen Ross, University of Victoria
