What content is available on the Routledge Encyclopedia of Modernism?

A wealth of content relating to the modernist period is available, and every article is edited for consistency and cross-referenced to encourage discoverability. The site is easy to use, articles are available to browse across eight subject fields, and can be searched by place and movement. Where possible, articles are supported by relevant images. Currently, we have over 2,000 articles available on the platform, and are updating and revising content every year.

Each article summary is freely available to view; however, a subscription is required in order to access the full article text.

I cannot find what I’m looking for; what should I do?

As an expanding resource, it is possible we have not yet published an article relating to your search term – if this is the case, please let us know and we can look to add it in the future. Note that the inclusion or exclusion of special characters may affect your results so be aware of this when searching. You can use the filters on the left of your screen to filter your results by subject, places, movement, or types, as well as search A-Z. For extra discoverability you can follow the related searches at the bottom of some entries – to give you a selection of related articles to choose from - or the related articles will take you directly to another article. 

Do you have permission for all images?

Every image should include the title along with a copyright © line, acknowledging permission to reproduce the image.

Every effort has been made to trace and contact copyright holders for the images and text reproduced in the Routledge Encyclopedia of Modernism. This has not been possible in every case, however, and the publishers would welcome correspondence from any rights holders who we have been unable to trace.  Any omissions bought to our attention will be remedied in future updates.
