The Difficulties Of Modernism by Leonard Diepeveen
A study of how difficulty became a defining value in early twentieth-century modernist culture, showing how critics, publishers, and readers learned to defend, interpret, and market opacity, fragmentation, and allusiveness. Drawing on period reviews and debates, it traces the shift from scandal to prestige and reveals how disputes over accessibility intersected with questions of expertise, class, and cultural authority.
