Más información sobre el libro
Within the ephemera of the everyday - old photographs, circus posters, iron toys - lies a challenge to America's dominant cultural memory. What this memory has left behind, Bill Brown recovers in the material unconscious of Stephen Crane's work, the textual residues of daily sensations that add up to a new history of the American 1890s. As revealed in Crane's appropriation of an emerging mass culture - from football games and freak shows to roller coasters and early cinema - the decade reappears as an underexposed moment in the genealogy of modernism and modernity.
