Trade Paperback. Condizione: Used - Very Good. 'Resurfacing Modernism' Founded in 1950, Perspecta is the oldest and mostdistinguished of student-edited American architectural journals. Perspecta 32examines contemporary 'resurfacings' represented by the return of many forms andvalues associated with mid-twentieth-century modernism. By 1950, a plethora ofarchitectural practices were adapting earlier modernist experimentation to thechanging times. Numerous buildings of this period employed sleek surfaces of glass, metal, and stone to provide primary stylistic unity. More generally, mucharchitectural activity involved the quotation, manipulation, and modification ofpast appearances (surfaces) and discourses (spaces).Exceptional architecture of thelast decade--not only built work, but also historical and theoretical research-- hasagain been informed by such imagery and actions. For this reason, Perspecta 32explores the prospects of mid- century modernism in a postmodern age. The issueinvokes three different meanings of 'resurface': the reappearance of aspects of thepast as well as the layering of new meanings and interpretations onto acceptedconventions, and the peeling away of accrued patinas associated with modernism.While critical explorations of architectural modernism have frequently emphasizedsurface qualities, the recognition and analysis of surface as a subject with depthpresents itself now more than ever.Contributors to Perspecta 32 include, amongothers, George Baird, Peggy Deamer, Deborah Fausch, Michael Hays, Sandy Isenstadt, and Reinhold Martin. An exploration of mid-century architectural modernism in a postmodern age, and of surface as a subject with depth. Very nice clean, tight copy free of any marks.…

Paperback. Condizione: New. Tracing Walter Benjamin's convergences with, and divergences from, influential German legal theorist Carl Schmitt, this edited collection contextualizes Benjamin's thinking in the intellectual currents of his time, while also placing him in dialogue with traditions and thinkers from antiquity to the present. At stake is whether Benjamin presents the possibility of a distinctive political theology-a question which the collection addresses without collapsing the tensions internal to Benjamin's thought. Benjamin's thought has been a touchstone, explicitly or implicitly, in numerous efforts to conceive of a 'new' political theology that is not anchored in legitimizing and preserving power, but in justice and liberation. Benjamin interrogates the political-theological complex from what may be construed as a vantage point opposed to Schmitt. Whereas Schmitt excavates the theological elements in modernity in order to shore up liberalism's illiberal inheritance, Benjamin roots out these latent structures in order to dissolve them and liberate us from their oppressive legacy. This volume's multifaceted contributions explore why Benjamin has been such a fertile source for thinking about political theology beyond - and often against - Schmitt. Benjamin indicates how existing political theologies can be challenged or expanded. This book accordingly makes a wide range of relevant work available for study whilst also opening new perspectives on Benjamin's ouvre.…

We planned to make the major changes before we moved in and did, after many delays, and after a movers' strike ended, but in early 1975 we were still eating off sawhorses. We thought we had come a long way, but work had just begun.Little did I know that it would become a love-hate affair, for the first seven years were most trying though slowly the repose and beauty of the house began to captivate me. I had no inkling that ethics would play a role in maintaining, owning, and being owned by a Wright house. Nor did I have any idea as to the varied sacrifices the house would demand. We certainly had no idea that a Wright boom was coming and with it a stream of visitors."--prologue ; AS NEW. Book.…

Paperback. Condizione: New. In the past two and a half decades, Walter Benjamin's early essay 'Towards the Critique of Violence' (1921) has taken a central place in politico-philosophic debates. The complexity and perhaps even the occasional obscurity of Benjamin's text have undoubtedly contributed to the diversity, conflict, and richness of contemporary readings. Interest has heightened following the attention that philosophers such as Jacques Derrida and Giorgio Agamben have devoted to it. Agamben's own interest started early in his career with his 1970 essay, 'On the Limits of Violence', and Benjamin's essay continues to be a fundamental reference in Agamben's work.Written by internationally recognized scholars, Towards the Critique of Violence is the first book to explore politico-philosophic implications of Benjamin's 'Critique of Violence' and correlative implications of Benjamin's resonance in Agamben's writings. Topics of this collection include mythic violence, the techniques of non-violent conflict resolution, ambiguity, destiny or fate, decision and nature, and the relation between justice and thinking. The volume explores Agamben's usage of certain Benjaminian themes, such as Judaism and law, bare life, sacrifice, and Kantian experience, culminating with the English translation of Agamben's 'On the Limits of Violence'.…
