Modernist Cultures is the journal of the British Association for Modernist Studies, providing a forum that opens up modernism to new kinds of inquiry and allows scholars to examine the interdisciplinary contexts of modernism and modernity. Articles explore a broad spectrum of disciplines, including: anthropology, art history, cultural studies, ethnography, film studies, history, literature, musicology, philosophy, sociology, urban studies, and visual culture.

Modernist Cultures seeks to open modernism up to new kinds of inquiry, new subjects, and new arguments, and to examine the interdisciplinary and international contexts of modernism and modernity. Fully peer-reviewed, the journal is committed to innovative scholarship and to dialogue across international borders, and intended as a genuinely interdisciplinary space for the lively, polemical discussion of contemporary trends in the field, a discussion that will, we hope, represent a range of critical approaches and foster debate between scholars working within different intellectual traditions.
