Modernism and Masculinity

Mann, Wedekind, Kandinsky through World War I
This work argues that a crisis of masculinity among European writers and artists played a key role in the modernist revolution. The author revises the notion that the feminine provided a pre-modern refuge for artists critical of individualism and materialism.
In this, one of the first serious, penetrating considerations of the modernist construction of masculinity, Gerald N. Izenberg examines the lives of Thomas Mann, Frank Wedekind, and Wassily Kandinsky, tracing their erotic and romantic lives and discovering how their personal constructions of masculinity - and reactions to femininity - were reflected in their art.
