The Sculpture of Kenneth Armitage

The Sculpture of Kenneth Armitage

James Scott; Antony Gormley

Lund Humphries Publishers Ltd
2016
sidottu
The Sculpture of Kenneth Armitage, which is being published to coincide with the artist's centenary in 2016, is the first book to feature a fully illustrated inventory of all of Armitage's known sculptures. It will be the only available illustrated reference book on the sculptural work of this important 20th-century artist. Through an inventory of 298 pieces and an accompanying narrative text, the book undertakes an examination of Armitage’s significant contribution to sculpture nationally and internationally during the second half of the 20th century, starting with the ‘geometry of fear’ exhibition at the 1952 Venice Biennale and Armitage’s solo contribution to the Biennale in 1958. It will be an essential reference resource for researchers, curators, dealers and collectors which will complement the complete sculpture catalogues already produced for Armitage’s sculptor contemporaries Lynn Chadwick, Elisabeth Frink, Robert Adams and Reg Butler, enhancing our understanding of post-war British sculpture.

Landmark Essays on Kenneth Burke

Landmark Essays on Kenneth Burke

Lawrence Erlbaum Associates Inc
1995
sidottu
In the inaugural series of "Landmark Essay" books, this is the only volume which focuses on the work of one scholar. Kenneth Burke -- poet, scholar, critic, iconoclast, eccentric, and Yankee crank -- is the major figure in American humanities in the twentieth century. He does not fit tidily into any philosophical school, nor is he reducible to any simple set of principles and ideas. Scholars from many fields -- communication, English, history, sociology, and more -- have studied Burke's theories and critical methods which have spawned reams of commentary, extension, debate, and application. More than a single intellectual worker, he is the ore for a scholarly industry. This book contains a few outstanding examples of the products of that industry. Readers will find models of what it means to be Burkean, to study Burke, and to use Burke in developing an understanding of the human condition. The essays in this volume show that one can borrow ideas from Burke, or one can become wholly immersed in him. However, his work cannot be reduced to or equated with any other figure, method, or school of thought. The reader may find some striking similarities among the papers in this book. Written by scholars from several disciplines, they nevertheless address many of the same themes during the course of their exposition. What is also striking is the fact that most of the essays enter that Burkean system of themes from different starting points. Thus, they are models of what Burke claims for any critical vocabulary -- including his own -- that they are cycles of terms, any one of which leads into another.

An Analysis of Kenneth Waltz's Theory of International Politics

An Analysis of Kenneth Waltz's Theory of International Politics

Riley Quinn

Macat International Limited
2017
nidottu
Kenneth Waltz’s 1979 Theory of International Politics is credited with bringing about a “scientific revolution” in the study of international relations – bringing the field into a new era of systematic study. The book is also a lesson in reasoning carefully and critically. Good reasoning is exemplified by arguments that move systematically, through carefully organised stages, taking into account opposing stances and ideas as they move towards a logical conclusion. Theory of International Politics might be a textbook example of how to go about structuring an argument in this way to produce a watertight case for a particular point of view.Waltz’s book begins by testing and critiquing earlier theories of international relations, showing their strengths and weaknesses, before moving on to argue for his own stance – what has since become known as “neorealism”. His aim was “to construct a theory of international politics that remedies the defects of present theories.” And this is precisely what he did; by showing the shortcomings of the prevalent theories of international relations, Waltz was then able to import insights from sociology to create a more comprehensive and realistic theory that took full account of the strengths of old schemas while also remedying their weaknesses – reasoning out a new theory in the process.

Der Neorealismus nach Kenneth Waltz und Neue Kriege

Der Neorealismus nach Kenneth Waltz und Neue Kriege

Grin Publishing

pokkari
Essay aus dem Jahr 2008 im Fachbereich Politik - Politische Theorie und Ideengeschichte, Note: 1.0, Hochschule Bremen, Veranstaltung: Voraussetzungen aktueller Probleme der Weltpolitik, 15 Quellen im Literaturverzeichnis, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Mit dem Ende des Kalten Krieges setzte auch weltweit die Hoffnung auf ein friedlicheres Zeitalter ein. Friedens- und Konfliktforscher erwarteten, dass mit dem Wegfall der Blockkonfrontation die M glichkeit best nde, Kriege effektiver zu befrieden oder von vornherein zu verhindern. In der Realit t fanden jedoch bereits bis Mitte der 1990er Jahre eine Reihe von Kriegen statt, die mit gro er Gewaltintensit t und weitreichenden Folgen waren, wie etwa die jugoslawischen Zerfallskriege und besonders der Bosnienkrieg. Zu schwache, zerfallende Staaten stellten neue Krisenherde dar. Als Beispiel f r viele weitere sind etwa die Kriege in Somalia und Ruanda zu nennen. Die t glichen Nachrichten ber Terroranschl ge, Gr ueltaten und Fl chtlingsstr me beschildern ver nderte Formen kriegerischer Gewalt. In der politikwissenschaftlichen Teildisziplin der Internationalen Beziehungen ist eine Debatte dar ber entbrannt, ob der Krieg seit dem Ende des Ost-West-Konflikts in den 1990er Jahren eine "neue" Gestalt angenommen hat. F r Friedensforscher wie Herfried M nkler und Mary Kaldor ist der klassische Staatenkrieg, der die Szenarien des Kalten Krieges noch weithin gepr gt hat, zu einem "historischen Auslaufmodell" geworden. Diese Arbeit skizziert den Wandel kriegerischer Gewalt in Bezug auf die Akteure, die Finanzierung, die Ziele und die Strategien der Akteure in diesen Kriegen. Eine der f hrenden Erkl rungsans tze des Kalten Krieges war Kenneth Waltz' Neorealismus. Laut Waltz blieb der Ost-West-Konflikt - zumindest in Europa - friedlich, weil das bipolare Gleichgewicht der beiden Hegemonialm chte USA und Sowjetunion f r Stabilit t in der naturgem anarchischen Struktur des internationalen Systems sorgte. In dieser Arbeit soll die Theori

Drawing Fashion: The Art of Kenneth Paul Block

Drawing Fashion: The Art of Kenneth Paul Block

Susan Mulcahy; Issac Mizrahi

Pointed Leaf Press
2008
sidottu
Kenneth Paul Block is one of the most influential fashion illustrators of the twentieth century. His childhood dream was "to draw glamorous ladies in beautiful clothes". After graduating from Parsons School of Design, his first job was at the powerful "Women's Wear Daily" in the 1950s, an association that lasted over thirty years and where Kenneth witnessed and recorded one of the most important periods in fashion history - the postwar shift as the exclusive world of couture transformed into pret-a-porter. Attending all the major fashion shows in Paris, London, and New York, Kenneth was the first one on the scene, drawing the latest style-setting clothes from such venerable houses as Balenciaga, Chanel, and Saint Laurent.He also documented the up and coming designers of the time, including Marc Jacobs, Perry Ellis, and Halston. He was well known in society, sketching Gloria Vanderbilt and the Duchess of Windsor. He reported on sensational parties in Palm Beach and New York attended by Babe Paley and Jackie Kennedy Onassis and created a unique archive of the era."Drawing Fashion: The Art of Kenneth Paul Block" is the first monograph on the artist and brings together a lifetime of drawings, watercolours, and observations. Fashion illustration disappeared from publications as photography took over, giving added emphasis to this book as an important historical document. "Drawing Fashion", designed by Shahid & Company, captures a critical moment in time when fashion, art, and commerce coincided.
