Описание: Forschungsinitiativen zum Thema Avantgarde und Moderne nehmen in der europ ischen Forschungslandschaft weiterhin zu. Die experimentellen Literaturen und die K nste in Europa zwischen ca. 1850 und 1950 und ihre Nachwirkungen sind als Lehr- und Forschungsbereiche an den europ ischen Forschungsinstitutionen und in den Lehrpl nen heutzutage nicht mehr wegzudenken. Avantgarde und Moderne haben sich in den letzten Jahrzehnten zu unterschiedlichen, aber mehrfach miteinander verzahnten Forschungsgebieten entwickelt. Innerhalb der franz sischen und deutschen akademischen Welt bleibt der Sammelbegriff "modernism" weniger gel ufig - "die (klassische) Moderne" und "modernit " fungieren hier als nahe liegende quivalente zu demjenigen, was im internationalen Kontext als eine zeitliche und r umliche Ko-Okkurenz k nstlerischer Ausdrucksformen und sthetischer Theorien namhaft gemacht werden kann, die ungef hr zwischen 1850 und 1950 angesiedelt werden kann. Auf hnliche Weise entfaltet die Bezeichnung "Avantgarde" eine Reihe h ufig widerspr chlicher Konnotationen. F r manche bedeutet die Avantgarde den radikalsten experimentellen Bruch der K nste und Literaturen mit den Darstellungs- und Erz hlkonventionen des 19. Jahrhundert: Im fr hen zwanzigsten Jahrhundert zeugen davon Avantgardebewegungen wie Futurismus, Expressionismus, Dada und Surrealismus, d.h. Str mungen, die als die "heroische" Phase der Avantgarde bezeichnet werden k nnen. F r andere geh rt die Avantgarde zu einer kulturellen und konzeptuellen Ordnung, die sich weitgehend von der 'modernistischen' unterscheidet oder sogar abhebt: Die avantgardistischen Experimente ab den f nfziger Jahren des zwanzigsten Jahrhunderts kommen in dieser Hinsicht weitgehend ohne modernistische Begleiterscheinung aus.
Die Buchreihe Studien zur Europ ischen Avantgarde und Moderne m chte der Kompliziertheit der unterschiedlichen europ ischen Forschungstraditionen gerecht werden und strebt danach, die breite linguistische, terminologische und methodologische Vielfalt abzudecken. Anhand einer zweij hrlichen Sammlung von Beitr gen in englischer, franz sischer und deutscher Sprache m chte die Reihe nicht nur die franz sisch-, deutsch- und englischsprachigen, sondern auch die nord-, s d-, zentral- und osteurop ischen Ergebnisse der Avantgarde- und Moderne-Forschung einbeziehen. Die Reihe sammelt die neuesten und ertragreichsten Beitr ge zur Forschung und widmet sich der Erforschung der gesamten europ ischen Avantgarde und Moderne, ihrer Vorl ufer und ihrem Nachklang im Laufe des 19. und 20. Jahrhunderts. Die Studien zur Europ ischen Avantgarde und Moderne f rdern die interdisziplin re und intermediale Erforschung experimenteller sthetiken und Poetiken und setzen es sich zum Ziel, das Interesse an den kulturellen Zusammenh ngen und Kontexten der Avantgarde und der Moderne in Europa anzuregen. Beitr ge werden internationalen Experten zur anonymen Begutachtung vorgelegt. Chefredakteure: Sascha Bru (Leuven University) und Peter Nicholls (New York University).

Sweet Air rewrites the history of early twentieth-century pop music in modernist terms. Tracking the evolution of popular regional genres such as blues, country, folk, and rockabilly in relation to the growth of industry and consumer culture, Edward P. Comentale shows how this music became a vital means of exploring the new and often overwhelming feelings brought on by modern life. Comentale examines these rural genres as they translated the traumas of local experience--the racial violence of the Delta, the mass exodus from the South, the Dust Bowl of the Texas panhandle--into sonic form. Considering the accessibility of these popular music forms, he asserts the value of music as a source of progressive cultural investment, linking poor, rural performers and audiences to an increasingly vast network of commerce, transportation, and technology.

A major voice in the architectural culture of the fifties and sixties, Sibyl Moholy-Nagy was uniquely engaged with modernism and modernity. As the wife and collaborator of L szl Moholy-Nagy, she was expected to provide him with the material that was crucial for his modernist mission, whilst trying to carve out her own subjectivity as a writer. As an architectural critic she was one of the early voices articulating doubts about the path modernist architecture was taking, demystifying the myths of the masters, Mies, Le Corbusier and Gropius, and questioning their heroic, masculinist approach.
This book analyzes the significance of the life and work of Moholy-Nagy and explores the paradoxical aspects of the relationship between modernism and feminism. Published as part of the Bloomsbury Studies in Modern Architecture series, which brings to light the work of significant yet overlooked figures in modernism, it is both an examination of her work and legacy, and also a study on the roles of gender and of the changing nature of modernism in its trajectory from Europe to America. Drawing on personal papers, diaries, letters and lecture notes, as well as personal interviews with relatives, colleagues and students, this study brings to light the significance of the life and work of a remarkable woman.

Описание: In Modernism and Popular Music, Ronald Schleifer shows how the music of George and Ira Gershwin, Cole Porter, Thomas `Fats` Waller and Billie Holiday can be considered as artistic expressions equal to those of the traditional high art practices in music and literature.
Robert Brain traces the origins of artistic modernism to specific technologies of perception developed in late-nineteenth-century laboratories. Brain argues that the thriving fin-de-siecle field of "physiological aesthetics," which sought physiological explanations for the capacity to appreciate beauty and art, changed the way poets, artists, and musicians worked and brought a dramatic transformation to the idea of art itself.

Описание: This panoramic study of musical modernism synthesizes cultural, biographical, and analytic perspectives to provide a group portrait of the leading figures in post-war British art music. Philip Rupprecht explores the music of the Manchester Group and other composers in works spanning sixties theatricality through to seventies pop, electronic and post-minimalist music.
In the early twentieth century, a new generation of liberal professors sought to prove Christianity's compatibility with contemporary currents in the study of philosophy, science, history, and democracy. These modernizing professors—Arthur Cushman McGiffert at Union Theological Seminary, George LaPiana at Harvard Divinity School, and Shirley Jackson Case at the University of Chicago Divinity School—hoped to equip their students with a revisionary version of early Christianity that was embedded in its social, historical, and intellectual settings. In The Fathers Refounded, Elizabeth A. Clark provides the first critical analysis of these figures' lives, scholarship, and lasting contributions to the study of Christianity. The Fathers Refounded continues the exploration of Christian intellectual revision begun by Clark in Founding the Fathers: Early Church History and Protestant Professors in Nineteenth-Century America. Drawing on rigorous archival research, Clark takes the reader through the professors' published writings, their institutions, and even their classrooms—where McGiffert tailored nineteenth-century German Protestant theology to his modernist philosophies; where LaPiana, the first Catholic professor at Harvard Divinity School, devised his modernism against the tight constraints of contemporary Catholic theology; and where Case promoted reading Christianity through social-scientific aims and methods. Each, in his own way, extricated his subfield from denominationally and theologically oriented approaches and aligned it with secular historical methodologies. In so doing, this generation of scholars fundamentally altered the directions of Catholic Modernism and Protestant Liberalism and offered the promise of reconciling Christianity and modern intellectual and social culture.

Автор: Charlotte Ashby Название: Modernism in Scandinavia: Art, Architecture and Design ISBN: 1350099562 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781350099562 Издательство: Bloomsbury Academic Цена: 26390.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание:
Scandinavia is a region associated with modernity: modern design, modern living and a modern welfare state. This new history of modernism in Scandinavia offers a picture of the complex reality that lies behind the label: a modernism made up of many different figures, impulses and visions. It places the individuals who have achieved international fame, such as Edvard Munch and Alvar Aalto in a wider context, and through a series of case studies, provides a rich analysis of the art, architecture and design history of the Nordic region, and of modernism as a concept and mode of practice.
Modernism in Scandinavia addresses the decades between 1890 and 1970 and presents an intertwined history of modernism across the region. Charlotte Ashby gives a rationale for her focus on those countries which share an interrelated history and colonial past, but also stresses influences from outside the region, such as the English Arts and Crafts movement and the impact of emergent American modernism. Her richly illustrated account guides the reader through key historical periods and cultural movements, with case studies illuminating key art works, buildings, designed products and exhibitions.
Автор: Jenny Anger Название: Four Metaphors of Modernism: From Der Sturm to the Societe Anonyme ISBN: 1517903211 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781517903213 Издательство: Mare Nostrum (Eurospan) Рейтинг: Цена: 100320.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: Exploring the significance of metaphor in modern art “Where do the roots of art lie?” asked Der Sturm founder Herwarth Walden. “In the people? Behind the mountains? Behind the planets. He who has eyes to hear, feels.” Walden’s Der Sturm-the journal, gallery, performance venue, press, theater, bookstore, and art school in Berlin (1910–1932)-has never before been the subject of a book-length study in English. Four Metaphors of Modernism positions Der Sturm at the center of the avant-garde and as an integral part of Euro-American modern art, theory, and practice.Jenny Anger traces Walden’s aesthetic and intellectual roots to Franz Liszt and Friedrich Nietzsche-forebears who led him to embrace a literal and figurative mixing of the arts. She then places Der Sturm in conversation with New York’s Soci?t? Anonyme (1920–1950), an American avant-garde group modeled on Der Sturm and founded by Katherine Sophie Dreier, Marcel Duchamp, and Man Ray. Working against the tendency to examine artworks and artist groups in isolation, Anger underscores the significance of both organizations to the development and circulation of international modernism. Focusing on the recurring metaphors of piano, glass, water, and home, Four Metaphors of Modernism interweaves a historical analysis of these two prominent organizations with an aesthetic analysis of the metaphors that shaped their practices, reconceiving modernism itself. Presented here is a modernism that is embodied, gendered, multisensory, and deeply committed to metaphor and a restoration of abstraction’s connection with the real.
