Download or read book Curious Disciplines written by Sarah Hayden and published by University of New Mexico Press. This book was released on 2018-04-15 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The transnational modernist Mina Loy (1882–1966) embodied the avant-garde in many literary and artistic media. This book positions her as a theorist of the avant-garde and of what it means to be an artist. Foregrounding Loy’s critical interrogation of Futurist, Dadaist, Surrealist, and “Degenerate” artisthood, and exploring her poetic legacies today, Curious Disciplines reveals Loy’s importance in an entirely novel way. Examining the primary texts produced by those movements themselves—their manifestos, magazines, pamphlets, catalogues, and speeches—Sarah Hayden uses close readings of Loy’s poetry, prose, polemics, and unpublished writings to trace her response to how these movements wrote themselves, collectively, into being.

Download or read book The Outcasters written by Maestro Drake and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2011-11-28 with total page 701 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since 1995, I set out as an artist to create characters who were hideous, strange and did not fit within the normal boundaries of a modern society. The Circus Freaks, my 1st creations, are such examples of de-humanizing humans, placing them in a world where they are not accepted by the majority and must push their way uphill to gain power. After 15 years of creating many people, places and things based on the real world, publishing books, including this one, I came to an epiphany. Who you are in relation to someone else depends not on skin color, age, religion, sexual preference, language, biology, country or planet. These short stories contain individual lives of those you are familiar with in one social category or another as opposed to those of your neighbor, family member, significant partner, your enemies, and those unlikely youve never met. In the end, a world, a galaxy of prosperity comes with the efforts of all who are related because they are unrelated and thats exactly what this book is about. --Maestro Drake
