Abstract
In Modernism, Self-Creation, and the Maternal, James Martell creatively explores the connections and tensions between the Derridean logics of obsequence (via being born of the mother) and of pregnancy, and moments when the notion of the mother or the maternal appear in seminal modernist works by primarily Baudelaire, Derrida, and Beckett, but also Joyce, Rimbaud, Mallarmé, Rousseau, Rilke, Proust and Poe.
