British Novelists, 1890-1929: Modernists (Dictionary of Literary Biography)
by Thomas F. Staley
Hardcover, 359 Pages, Published 1985 by Gale Research Inc
ISBN-13: 978-0-8103-1714-7, ISBN: 0-8103-1714-1

"When Virginia Woolf wrote that in or about December 1910 human character changed she was reacting specifically to the first impressionist exhibition in England. But her statement also summed up a feeling shared by the so-called modernist writers of that period, who, in the context of World War I, were beginning to think and write in new ways about their government and social structures, their place in the world and their universe. Altho ..."

ISBN-13: 978-0-8103-1712-3, ISBN: 0-8103-1712-5

"The forty years between 1890 and 1929 were the most fertile and diverse period of the British novel. The first of two volumes covering these years, DLB Volume 34 focuses on the Traditionalists whose works by and large reflect an affinity in form and content with the novelistic tradition established in the 19th century. Although many of the novelists included in this volume reveal a new awareness of the moral self, an irony exists at the ..."

Dictionary of Literary Biography
British Mystery Writers 1920-1939 Vol 77
by Bernard Benstock, Thomas F. Staley
Hardcover, 368 Pages, Published 1988 by Gale
ISBN-13: 978-0-8103-4555-3, ISBN: 0-8103-4555-2

"This is the second DLB volume of a planned series on British mystery writers. Because there has been little scholarship devoted to individual mystery writers except for the most prominent, this volume is particularly useful as a stimulus to further study. Mystery fiction arose in Britain when the middle 19th-century phenomenon of 'middle-culture' literary art blurred the distinction between serious literature and popular fiction. With p ..."

Make It New
The Rise of Modernism
by Kurt Heinzelman, Thomas F. Staley
Paperback, 156 Pages, Published 2003 by Harry Ransom Humanities Research Center
ISBN-13: 978-0-292-70284-4, ISBN: 0-292-70284-1

"What was Modernism, and why does it still matter? The term itself first gained currency in the 1930s, describing a kind of art that already may have peaked, some would say as early as 1922. Whatever its ups and downs in its own time, as the novelist Julian Barnes claims in one of the twenty essays commissioned for the present volume, Modernism never vanished. It remains our immovable feast. Modernism was international in scope; it left ..."

British Mystery and Thriller Writers since 1940, First Series (Dictionary of Literary Biography)
by Bernard Benstock, Thomas F. Staley
Hardcover, 419 Pages, Published 1989 by Gale
ISBN-13: 978-0-8103-4565-2, ISBN: 0-8103-4565-X

"The period since 1940 has seen a backlash against the traditional British genteel-puzzle mystery. It's characterized by the serial detective-Holmes, Poirot, Wimsey-who dominates through force of personality or even idiosyncrasy. Suspense novels, crime novels, psychological thrillers and spy stories have increasingly displaced the 'pure' detective novel. This volume offers career biographies of 25 of the best British mystery and thriller ..."

This turning - over is summed up neatly and vigorously in a recent collection of essays by Gregory Bateson called Steps to an Ecology of Mind ...
