$41.95
(disponible sur commande)
Résumé:
Le nazisme est trop souvent présenté comme un mouvement profondément antimoderne, obsédé par un passé mythique et exaltant la communauté du sang et de la tradition culturelle. Dans ce livre, qui a fait date par son approche radicalement nouvelle, Jeffrey Herf montre au contraire qu'il a voué un culte délirant à la technologie la plus avancée. Pour ce faire, le grand(...)

Résumé:
Le nazisme est trop souvent présenté comme un mouvement profondément antimoderne, obsédé par un passé mythique et exaltant la communauté du sang et de la tradition culturelle. Dans ce livre, qui a fait date par son approche radicalement nouvelle, Jeffrey Herf montre au contraire qu'il a voué un culte délirant à la technologie la plus avancée. Pour ce faire, le grand historien américain s'est livré à une enquête approfondie sur les origines idéologiques du Ille Reich, mettant en lumière une nébuleuse originale d'intellectuels, dont plusieurs ont marqué l'histoire des idées, comme Oswald Spengler, Ernst Jünger, Werner Sombart ou Carl Schmitt.

Résumé:
Fin-de-siècle Vienna was a hive of creative activity, and at its centre was one of the most versatile artists of the age, Koloman Moser (1868–1918). As a teacher, artist and craftsman, Moser had an immense influence on the tastes of his time, with talents that ranged from illustration and graphics to stained glass and the design of stage sets and postage stamps. In 1897 Moser co-founded the Vienna Secession, and in 1903, together with his friend and colleague Josef Hoffmann, he founded the Wiener Werkstätte, whose workshops were to set trends that spread far beyond the boundaries of Vienna. He devoted the last years of his life to painting, and in recent times his reputation in this field too has steadily grown. Despite the wealth of information that has survived down the years, Moser’s personality remains largely hidden behind his work. Here, Maria Rennhofer joins the many fragments of Moser’s personal life, his artistic influences and his multifaceted creativity into a coherent portrait of this fascinating man. This is not only the first comprehensive account of Moser’s life and work, but it is also an in-depth look at the flourishing artistic environment which he did so much to create and shape.

Résumé:
In the 1960s and ’70s, architects, influenced by recent developments in computing and the rise of structuralist and poststructuralist thinking, began to radically rethink how architecture could be created. Though various new approaches gained favor, they had one thing in common: they advocated moving away from the traditional reliance on an individual architect’s knowledge and instincts and toward the use of external tools and processes that were considered objective, logical, or natural. Automatic architecture was born.
