【正确答案】正确答案：The theoretical base is irrational philosophy and the theory of psycho-analysis. Common themes are the distorted, alienated and ill relationships between man and nature, man and society, man and man, and man and himself. Modernism writing shows a strong and conscious break with the past, by rejecting the moral, religious and cultural values of the past. Focuses in this period move away from the public to the private, from the objective to the subjective. Writers emphasize the psychic time over the chronological one, maintaining that the past, the present and the future are one and exist at the same time in the consciousness of individual as a continuous flow rather than a series of separate moments. A partial reaction against realism is also dominated.
