This volume explores the usefulness and limitations of the concept of literary primitivism. The individual essays propose theories of primitivism and reconstruct its historical and theoretical background. Using literary examples, they reveal the contours of literary primitivism and explain its relationship to primitivism in the visual arts. The overall picture that emerges from the analysis is of primitivism as a powerful force in the development of literary modernity.
