Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. A comprehensive reader on the Czech literary avant-garde. In recent years a prominent trend in the study of European modernism and the avant-garde has been increased attention to texts and traditions that have long stood in the shadow of the French, German, and British traditions that dominate the canon. Yet this more expansive view of European modernism and the avant-garde has been hindered by the limited range of texts available outside the original languages. This book addresses that problem by offering a wide-ranging selection of literary, theoretical, and documentary sources from one of the most dynamic and original European avant-garde traditions: that of the first Czechoslovak Republic and of the Bohemian lands. The Czech avant-garde is in many respects the ideal alternative avant-garde to present in detail to a wider readership: it tracks Central European developments and was often influential internationally while being deeply embedded in particular cultural dynamics that produced original forms. This volume returns interwar Czech avant-garde writings to their place as a firmly embedded component of the European avant-garde.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Offers a close look at the collaboration of the Czechoslovak avant-garde with print technicians to produce radical experiments in book and periodical production. The most influential avant-garde group in interwar Czechoslovakia called for a revolution enacted via print. Devetsil, founded in 1920 and comprised of leftist artists, architects, actors, and poets, undertook an ambitious publishing effort, aiming to reach urban individuals on the street and in their homes in the years following the First World War. It was a revolution that explicitly condemned any call to arms; instead, it proposed taking up new technologies that expanded possibilities for the photomechanical reproduction and dissemination of text and image in print. This utopic vision was embodied in thousands of physical revolutions made by the machine of the printing press. Technologies for the Revolution offers a cultural history of print that engages questions of labor and capital embedded in material culture and in the history of the book. This new publication offers a nuanced portrait of leftist art practices in Czechoslovakia in the interwar period and charts networks of exchange across Europe by exploring the ways in which Devetsil used its printed matter. The Czech -ism of Poetism is articulated as a sustained working through of Devetsil's position as the group aimed to accommodate both new technology and the role of poets and artists in a postwar society, all while striving for a socialist utopia. Technologies for the Revolution is the result of nearly a decade of research conducted in the libraries and archives of Prague, Berlin, Paris, and New York, as well as close work with museum and private collections. Conceived as an exhibition space in print, this book sheds new light on Devetsil and Poetism, as well as on the group's social and artistic activities through an object-based analysis of various media architecture, typography, poetry, photography, film, and performanceto propose a more synthetic and variegated understanding of Devetsil's unique contribution to the European avant-gardes.
