  • Release :
  • ISBN : 9780803264236
  • Pages : 760 pages

Download or read book Manifesto written by Mary Ann Caws and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on with total page 760 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first anthology of its kind, Manifesto features over two hundred artistic and cultural manifestos from a wide range of countries. The manifesto, a public statement that sets forth the tenets of a forthcoming, existing, or potential movement or "ism"?or that plays on the idea of one?became in various modernisms aøcrucial and forceful vehicle for artists, writers, and other intellectuals to express their ideas about the direction of aesthetics and society. Included in this collection are texts ranging from Kurt Schwitters's Cow Manifesto to those written in the name of well-known movements?imagism, cubism, surrealism, symbolism, vorticism, projectivism?and less well-known ones?lettrism, acmeism, concretism, rayonism. Also covered are expressionist, Dada, and futurist movements from French, Italian, Russian, Spanish, and Latin American perspectives, as well as local movements, such as Brazilian hallucinism. Influential, startling, unsettling, amusing, and continually engaging, these modernist manifestos give voice to a fascinating array of ideas and opinions that will prove invaluable to scholars and students of nineteenth and twentieth-century art, literature, and culture.

Book Outside Stories  1987 1991

    Book Details:
  • Author : Eliot Weinberger
  • Publisher : New Directions Publishing
  • Release : 1992
  • ISBN : 9780811212212
  • Pages : 200 pages

Download or read book Outside Stories 1987 1991 written by Eliot Weinberger and published by New Directions Publishing. This book was released on 1992 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unpredictable and uncanonical, Eliot Weinberger's essays are the "outside stories" of cultural migrations. The fifteen pieces collected here range from the history of the Salman Rushdie affair to the dream of Atlantis, from the turf wars among ethnographic filmmakers to the unlikely romance between poetry and espionage, from the pilgrims in Plymouth to the students in Tiananmen Square. Above all, Weinberger's concern is poetry--whether written in medieval Baghdad or by Mexicans in Japan--and the perennially underground yet global network through which it travels. With his modernist sensibility and internationalist perspective, Weinberger's inventive prose transports old myths and texts to the strange realities of contemporary life.

Book Beyond Given Knowledge

Download or read book Beyond Given Knowledge written by Harri Veivo and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2017-12-18 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The effort to go beyond given knowledge in different domains – artistic, scientific, political, metaphysical – is a characteristic driving force in modernism and the avant-gardes. Since the late 19th century, artists and writers have frequently investigated their medium and its limits, pursued political and religious aims, and explored hitherto unknown physical, social and conceptual spaces, often in ways that combine these forms of critical inquiry into one and provoke further theoretical and methodological innovations. The fifth volume of the EAM series casts light on the history and actuality of investigations, quests and explorations in the European avant-garde and modernism from the late 19th century to the present day. The authors seek to answer questions such as: How have modernism and the avant-garde appropriated scientific knowledge, religious dogmas and social conventions, pursuing their investigation beyond the limits of given knowledge and conceptions? How have modernism and avant-garde created new conceptual models or representations where other discourses have allegedly failed? In what ways do practises of investigation, quest or exploration shape artistic work or the formal and thematic structures of artworks?
