Exploring the intersection of modernism and archaeology, this book traces a lineage of writers from the mid-nineteenth century to the 1950s who engaged with archaeological themes. It highlights how archaeology served as a fertile ground for cultural fantasy and alternative modernities, allowing for the exploration of primal intensities and the subconscious. Through a detailed examination of literary works, the author presents a compelling case for archaeology's significant influence on modernist thought and the evolution of poetic expression over the century.
