This study will look at the rise of modern American literature and the 1920s culture of the “Jazz Age.” We will look at the post-World War I disillusionment of such writers as Ernest Hemingway, F. Scott Fitzgerald, and T.S. Eliot, the flowering of African-American writing known as the “Harlem Renaissance” and the artistic contributions of jazz writers and performers.
