Hope interpreted and reacted to modernity (and modernism) has been energetically discussed for some time. What aspects of modernity did he find useful, or prize? What precisely did he dislike, and why? How did he make use even—sometimes, especially—of what he disliked? This book offers fresh answers to such questions from some of Australia's best-known scholars. It is a volume that will be of interest to undergraduates and professional academics alike.
