This book explores the entwinement of physical, temporal and psychological strata across literature, 1900 to 1930. With particular emphases on geological and archaeological tropes and conceptions of the stratified psyche, it charts these themes across diverse genres, from theatre to ghost stories, children’s literature to modernist masterpieces.

This book scrutinizes physical, temporal and psychological strata across early twentieth-century literature, focusing on geological and archaeological tropes and conceptions of the stratified psyche. The essays explore psychological perceptions, from practices of envisioning that mimic looking at a painting, photograph or projected light, to the comprehension of the palimpsestic complexities of language, memory and time. This collection is the first to see early twentieth-century physical, temporal and psychological strata interact across a range of canonical and popular authors, working in a variety of genres, from theatre to ghost stories, children’s literature to modernist magna opera.
