Voices (magazine)
''Voices'' was a monthly literary magazine published in England from 1919 to 1921. Under the editorship of Thomas Moult, ''Voices'' tried to create a new readership for poetry among the young generation awaiting demobilization or returning from the war". The first edition of ''Voices'' appeared in January 1919, costing one shilling. Following the February 1921 issue, the magazine only managed to publish a Summer and Autumn issue before folding. Some regular contributors, like Neville Cardus, came from Manchester, where Moult had been educated. Jewish contributors included Louis Golding, Maurice Samuel, and the Zionist poet Israel Zangwill; Stephen Winsten, the arts editor, was one of the so-called Whitechapel Boys group, and attracted contributions from David Bomberg, Jacob Kramer, Lucien Pissarro, and Jacob Epstein. The magazine reviewed war literature and published war poetry by soldier-poets such as Frederick Victor Branford and Edmund Blunden. Open to both Georgian and Moder ...

Literary Magazine
A literary magazine is a periodical devoted to literature in a broad sense. Literary magazines usually publish short stories, poetry, and essays, along with literary criticism, book reviews, biographical profiles of authors, interviews and letters. Literary magazines are often called literary journals, or little magazines, terms intended to contrast them with larger, commercial magazines. History ''Nouvelles de la république des lettres'' is regarded as the first literary magazine; it was established by Pierre Bayle in France in 1684. Literary magazines became common in the early part of the 19th century, mirroring an overall rise in the number of books, magazines, and scholarly journals being published at that time. In Great Britain, critics Francis Jeffrey, Henry Brougham and Sydney Smith founded the '' Edinburgh Review'' in 1802. Other British reviews of this period included the ''Westminster Review'' (1824), ''The Spectator'' (1828), and ''Athenaeum'' (1828). In the Unite ...

Modernist Poetry
Modernist poetry refers to poetry written between 1890 and 1950 in the tradition of modernist literature, but the dates of the term depend upon a number of factors, including the nation of origin, the particular school in question, and the biases of the critic setting the dates. The critic/poet C. H. Sisson observed in his essay ''Poetry and Sincerity ''that "Modernity has been going on for a long time. Not within living memory has there ever been a day when young writers were not coming up, in a threat of iconoclasm." Background It is usually said to have begun with the Symbolism (arts), French Symbolist movement and it artificially ends with the World War II, Second World War, the beginning and ending of the modernist period are of course arbitrary. Poets like W. B. Yeats (1865–1939) and Rainer Maria Rilke (1875–1926) started in a post-Romantic, Symbolist vein and modernised their poetic idiom after being affected by political and literary developments. Imagism proved ...

Paul Nash (artist)
Paul Nash (11 May 1889 – 11 July 1946) was a British surrealist painter and war artist, as well as a photographer, writer and designer of applied art. Nash was among the most important landscape artists of the first half of the twentieth century. He played a key role in the development of Modernism in English art. Born in London, Nash grew up in Buckinghamshire where he developed a love of the landscape. He entered the Slade School of Art but was poor at figure drawing and concentrated on landscape painting. Nash found much inspiration in landscapes with elements of ancient history, such as burial mounds, Iron Age hill forts such as Wittenham Clumps and the standing stones at Avebury in Wiltshire. The artworks he produced during World War I are among the most iconic images of the conflict. After the war Nash continued to focus on landscape painting, originally in a formalized, decorative style but, throughout the 1930s, in an increasingly abstract and surreal manner. In his ...
