The Mental Life of Modernism

Why Poetry, Painting, and Music Changed at the Turn of the Twentieth Century (The MIT Press)

Samuel Jay Keyser

Explore the cognitive phenomenon behind the artistic developments of Modernism in this thought-provoking book. Rather than attributing the shift to cultural factors, Samuel Jay Keyser argues that it reflects a natural cognitive limitation of the brain. Discover how the abandonment of traditional aesthetic rules led to the emergence of a new art form, forcing audiences to catch up with artists who used a different part of the brain to create. This book offers a unique perspective on the transformation of poetry, music, and painting, shedding new light on their history and evolution.
