  The first volume of the new series European Avant-Garde and Modernism Studies focuses on the relation between the avant-garde, modernism and Europe. It combines interdisciplinary and intermedial research on experimental aesthetics and poetics. The articles seek to bring out the complexity of the European avant-garde and modernism by relating it to Europe's intricate history, multiculturalism and multilingualism; they aim to inquire into the divergent cultural views on Europe taking shape in avant-garde and modernist practices and chart a composite image of the 'other Europe(s)' that have emerged from the (contemporary) avant-garde and experimental modernism.
