Supermodernismo, Arquitectura en la era de la Globalización

Hans Ibelings, Supermodernismo, Arquitectura en la era de la Globalización
GG Publishing | ISBN: 8425217512 | 1998 | PDF | 144 pages | 20 Mb

La globalizacion del planeta parece monopolizar un espacio dominante de la cultura popular y el debate intelectual. La arquitectura se une al debate a traves de un proceso de internacionalizaciÃ³n creciente, de manera que el arquitecto contempla el mundo como si este fuera el solar ultimo sobre el que proyectar. Este libro ha sido instigado por la apreciacion de un cambio radical en la arquitectura que tras el posmodernismo o el fugaz deconstructivismo, se orienta hacia una nueva concepcion de arquitectura, alejada de las nociones posmodernas de lugar, contexto e identidad.

The Geometry of Modernism: The Vorticist Idiom in Lewis, Pound, H.D., and Yeats

Miranda B. Hickman, "The Geometry of Modernism: The Vorticist Idiom in Lewis, Pound, H.D., and Yeats "
University of Texas Press | 2006 | ISBN: 0292709439 | 358 pages | PDF | 2,5 MB

Addressing both the literature and the visual arts of Anglo-American modernism, The Geometry of Modernism recovers a crucial development of modernism's early years that until now has received little sustained critical attention: the distinctive idiom composed of geometric forms and metaphors generated within the early modernist movement of Vorticism, formed in London in 1914. Focusing on the work of Wyndham Lewis, leader of the Vorticist movement, as well as Ezra Pound, H.D., and William Butler Yeats, Hickman examines the complex of motives out of which Lewis initially forged the geometric lexicon of Vorticism—and then how Pound, H.D., and Yeats later responded to it and the values that it encoded, enlisting both the geometric vocabulary and its attendant assumptions and ideals, in transmuted form, in their later modernist work.
Placing the genesis and appropriation of the geometric idiom in historical context, Hickman explores how despite its brevity as a movement, Vorticism in fact exerted considerable impact on modernist work of the years between the wars, in that its geometric idiom enabled modernist writers to articulate their responses to both personal and political crises of the 1930s and 1940s. Informed by extensive archival research as well as treatment of several of the least-known texts of the modernist milieu, The Geometry of Modernism clarifies and enriches the legacy of this vital period.
