Book Second World Postmodernisms

Download or read book Second World Postmodernisms written by Vladimir Kulic and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2019-02-21 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If postmodernism is indeed 'the cultural logic of late capitalism', why did typical postmodernist themes like ornament, colour, history and identity find their application in the architecture of the socialist Second World? How do we explain the retreat into paper architecture and theoretical discussion in societies still nominally devoted to socialist modernization? Exploring the intersection of two areas of growing scholarly interest - postmodernism and the architecture of the former socialist world - this edited collection stakes out new ground in charting architecture's various transformations in the 1970s and 80s. Fourteen essays together explore the question of whether or not architectural postmodernism had a specific Second World variant. The collection demonstrates both the unique nature of Second World architectural phenomena and also assesses connections with western postmodernism. The case studies cover the vast geographical scope from Eastern Europe to China and Cuba. They address a wealth of aesthetic, discursive and practical phenomena, interpreting them in the broader socio-political context of the last decades of the Cold War. The result provides a greatly expanded map of recent architectural history, which redefines postmodernist architecture in a more theoretically comprehensive and global way.

  • ISBN : 1000449491
  • Pages : 378 pages

Download or read book Oil Spaces written by Carola Hein and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-08-23 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Oil Spaces traces petroleum’s impact through a range of territories from across the world, showing how industrially drilled petroleum and its refined products have played a major role in transforming the built environment in ways that are often not visible or recognized. Over the past century and a half, industrially drilled petroleum has powered factories, built cities, and sustained nation-states. It has fueled ways of life and visions of progress, modernity, and disaster. In detailed international case studies, the contributors consider petroleum’s role in the built environment and the imagination. They study how petroleum and its infrastructure have served as a source of military conflict and political and economic power, inspiring efforts to create territories and reshape geographies and national boundaries. The authors trace ruptures and continuities between colonial and postcolonial frameworks, in locations as diverse as Sumatra, northeast China, Brazil, Nigeria, Tanzania, and Kuwait as well as heritage sites including former power stations in Italy and the port of Dunkirk, once a prime gateway through which petroleum entered Europe. By revealing petroleum’s role in organizing and imagining space globally, this book takes up a key task in imagining the possibilities of a post-oil future. It will be invaluable reading to scholars and students of architectural and urban history, planning, and geography of sustainable urban environments.

Book A Second Modernism

  • Author : Arindam Dutta
  • Publisher : National Geographic Books
  • Release : 2013-09-27
  • ISBN : 026201985X
  • Pages : 0 pages

Download or read book A Second Modernism written by Arindam Dutta and published by National Geographic Books. This book was released on 2013-09-27 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An account of architecture's postwar ambition to transform itself into a research-oriented and technologically complex discipline of design expertise. After World War II, a second modernism emerged in architecture—an attempt, in architectural scholar Joan Ockman's words, “to transform architecture from a 'soft' aesthetic discipline into a 'hard,' objectively verifiable field of design expertise.” Architectural thought was influenced by linguistic, behavioral, computational, mediatic, cybernetic, and other urban and behavioral models, as well as systems-based and artificial intelligence theories. This nearly 1,000-page book examines the “techno-social” turn in architecture, taking MIT's School of Architecture and Planning as its exemplar. In essays and interviews, prominent architectural historians and educators examine the postwar “research-industrial” complex, its attendant cult of expertise, and its influence on life and letters both in America and abroad. Paying particular attention to the ways that technological thought affected the culture of the humanities, the social sciences, and architectural design, the book traces this shift toward complexity as it unfolded, from classroom practices to committee deliberations, from the challenges of research to the vicissitudes of funding. Looking closely at the ways that funded research drew academics towards a “problem-solving” and relevance-seeking mentality and away from the imported Bauhaus model of intuition and aesthetics, the book reveals how linguistics, information sciences, operations research, computer technology, and systems theory became part of architecture's expanded toolkit. This is a history not just of a school of architecture but of the research-oriented era itself. It offers a thoroughgoing exploration of the ways that policies, politics, and pedagogy transformed themselves in accord with the exponential growth of institutional power.

Book The Luther Effect in Eastern Europe

Download or read book The Luther Effect in Eastern Europe written by Joachim Bahlcke and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2017 with total page 379 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The founding of the Protestant denominations lasted longer as a historical phase in Eastern Europe than in the German-speaking world. The spread of Lutheran teaching often took place in competition with other confessional currents; in this process, the connection between confession and the nation played a special role. The essays in this volume examine the impacts of Lutheran teaching in Eastern Europe. The discussion extends from the 16th century to the present day, and highlights how the Reformation is still relevant today, in Poland, Romania, and elsewhere. In addition to discussing historical events, the essays focus thematically on the transmission of Reformation thought both orally and in writing, and through art and architecture. They also examine different ways of relating to this cultural heritage. The collection includes essays by Joachim Bahlcke, Małgorzata Balcer, Katrin Boeckh, Hans-Jürgen Bömelburg, Kęstutis Daugirdas, Winfried Eberhard, Detlef Haberland, Jan Harasimowicz, Wilhelm Hüffmeier, Bernhart Jähnig, Grażyna Jurkowlaniec, Krista Kodres, Eva Kowalska, Kolja Lichy, Anna Mańko-Matysiak, Péter Ötvös, Maciej Ptaszyński, Anja Rasche, Maria Skiba, Edit Szegedi, Matthias Weber, Evelin Wetter, and Martin Zückert.
