Making it New Again: Modernism and Magazines

Student magazines created for Dr. Louise Kane’s Literary Modernism course are new versions of some of the vintage arts and poetry magazines from the 1910s and 1920s that students studied as part of the course.

Showcasing student magazines created for English faculty member Dr. Louise Kane’s Literary Modernism course, the magazines in this exhibition are new versions of some of the vintage arts and poetry magazines from the 1910s and 20s that students studied as part of the course. Students worked with Special Collections and University Archives at UCF, using the “Zines” and “Sol and Sadie Malkoff” Papers, to create their own magazines inspired by movements as diverse as French Surrealism, Hispanic ultraismo and Italian Futurism. Students used their magazines to address important social and political issues, from the #MeToo movement to promoting global diversity.
