Modernist War Poetry: Edinburgh Critical Studies in Modernist Culture

Dr Jamie Wood is an independent scholar focused on Anglo-American literary modernism between 1910 and 1950. He is particularly interested in the genealogy of high modernist aesthetics, the trauma of modernity and the interconnection between literature and finance capitalism. He is the author of several journal articles published in Biography (2018), College Literature (2018), Modernist Cultures (2015) and Modernism/modernity (2010), and of articles in edited collections published or forthcoming by Edinburgh University, Cambridge University Press, Oxford University Press and the Société Française. He has written extensively on the work of Wyndham Lewis and George Orwell, and in 2014 was the winner of the British Association of Modernist Studies Essay Prize for work on F.T. Marinetti's visit to London in 1910.
