How do literary forms relate to scientific models? When scientific paradigms shift, do the literary forms adapt? These are the questions motivating 'Modernist Life Histories'.
Provides a unique perspective on the Bildungsroman, one of the most discussed genres in recent scholarly work on modernism. Approaches the study of science and literature with exceptionally close attention to the details of scientific models, their cultural appropriations, and their political implications. Makes the first thoroughgoing argument for twentieth-century biology as a positive influence on modernist poetics and ethics.
