520 |a While a large amount of scholarship about Milan Kundera's work exists, in the author's opinion, his work has not been studied within the context of (European) modernity as a sociohistorical and a cultural concept. Of course, he is considered to be a modernist writer (some even call him a postmodernist), but what the broader concept of modernity intellectually, historically, socially, and culturally means for him and how this is expressed in his texts has not been thoroughly examined. This book fills this vacuum by analyzing Kundera's novels from the viewpoint of his understanding of the existential problems in the culture of modernity. In addition, his relation to those modernist novelists from the first half of the twentieth century who are most important for him is scrutinized in detail. This book is intended for students of modernism in literary and (comparative) cultural studies, as well as those interested in European and Central European studies. --  |c Provided by publisher.
