What Is Modernism in Literature?

James joyce from ireland wrote ulysses around 19 ten. He's responding to there's a new way to tell stories by recording visual information and telling them via time, in cinema. And he's also responding to the new science of psychoanalysis. So a novel like ulysses isn't just interested in the words that come out of the characters mouth in the book. The novel is interested in the unconscious mind of the characters.
