Landscapes of Decadence

'Murray understands 'Decadence' as a set of stylistic strategies aimed at challenging conventions by pushing them to the point of 'dissolution', and so distinguishes it from 'decadence' as the more general watchword for conservative reactions to cultural decline. Though the protests of decadence are many, Murray is primarily interested in the resistance it offers to traditional notions of place in an era of intensely nationalist thinking. \u2026 With this close attention to place, Murray highlights an important comparative dimension to decadence.' Robert Volpicelli, Modernism/modernity
