Modernist Time Ecology
Explores modernist time ecology, a concept that examines how literary texts and other cultural artifacts actively cultivate and reshape human temporality. It argues against the common perception that modernism merely reflects a fractured sense of time, instead highlighting a proactive engagement by modernist authors to remediate temporal limitations and introduce diversity into temporal experience. The work draws on Bergsonian philosophy, Bakhtinian chronotopes, and cognitive psychology to demonstrate how various authors—including Dickens, Mann, Forster, Priestley, Naipaul, and Ellison—used narrative techniques to broaden the "specious present," challenge linear time, and create new temporal affordances. The study also extends to contemporary manifestations of time ecology in art, film, and social movements like the Slow Food movement, ultimately suggesting a transformative power of representation to address the "time-crisis" of modernity.
