Modernist art and literature primarily influenced subsequent generations of artists, writers, and thinkers by challenging traditional norms and exploring new forms of expression. This influence can be seen in various fields such as architecture, design, music, and philosophy.
The initial influence on American modernist writers was European modernist literature, particularly the works of authors like James Joyce and T.S. Eliot. The largest influence came from societal changes in America during the early 20th century, such as urbanization, industrialization, and World War I, which shaped their themes and styles.
