The Modernist Vortex?

May 5, 2009 11:11 AM

George Landow's Victorian Web is a first stop for all things 19th century. Are there similar sites (academic or non) that archive information on 20th century literature? Specifically, for modernism? (British or American) --- on the hunt for easy-to use web resources.

Calling all teachers! What are your favorite sites?

The author-centric site The Modern Word covers a few big figures of literary modernism, postmodernism, and the like, but it isn't really comparable to the Victorian Web, which is broadly scoped and encyclopedic. You might find it useful anyway; it appears to be a real labor of love.

Check out the Virginia Woolf Hyper-Concordance and have a look through the site's other concordances (mostly Victorian, but Yeats, O'Neill, Fitzgerald, Eliot and others are included).

Yale's Modernism Lab is a great web resource with an extensive database of personalities, places and documentary resources on Modernism.
