An Examination of British Modernist Literary Patronage

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Part of a larger ongoing dissertation project, this article presents an application of patronage studies’ methodology, namely Helleke van den Braber’s (2021) model of post-romantic patronage, to selected British modernist patrons—Lady Ottoline Morrell and Lady Sibyl Colefax and the writers that they supported. It examines all the elements of van den Braber’s model—the patron, the artist, the artwork and the public— as they interacted in relationships of patronage in the first four decades of the twentieth century. Thanks to the critical perspective offered by sociologists of art, especially Howard Becker and Pierre Bourdieu, who are among the central theoretical voices consulted in this article, it illustrates how modernist writers entered a complex exchange of capitals in order to escape the demands of the mainstream literary market. Besides commenting on the role of commodification in the modernist literary market, this article contributes to understanding of the conditions under which literary works are written, their value is influenced and notions of authorship and creative agency are problematised when a patron is involved.
