In diesem Band wird erstmals aus interdisziplinärer und vergleichender Perspektive untersucht, wie sich der Futurismus in verschiedenen Ländern und künstlerischen Medien niedergeschlagen hat. Zwanzig Beiträger beschäftigen sich mit der Frage, wie diese Bewegung auf das Konzept einer kulturellen Avantgarde einwirkte, und wie sie darüberhinaus die Entwicklung der modernen Kunst und Literatur weltweit beeinflußte.

This publication offers for the first time an inter-disciplinary and comparative perspective on Futurism in a variety of countries and artistic media. 20 scholars discuss how the movement shaped the concept of a cultural avant-garde and how it influenced the development of modernist art and literature around the world.
