This study is important because it studies the implications of the Bauhaus principles in contemporary graphic design. It aims to reveal the expressive reflections of Bauhaus in contemporary graphic ...design. The objective reduction is to study the Bauhaus implications in graphic poster design. The spatial limitation is Germany. As for the year 2020, the most important conditions for the title were identified, and the theoretical framework was dealt with (composition, factors of appearance, characteristics and modernity in Bauhaus). The study also touched on the most important intellectual, functional and aesthetic statements, and the ideology of the Bauhaus, which are one of the most important official statements of this school and its reflections in contemporary graphic design. The methodology, the research community and sample, and the models were analyzed, then the results and conclusions of the research were produced with recommendations and proposals.
The article analyzes the convergent stage of architectonics of the art of Yakutia, which has manifested itself after the collapse of Soviet culture. The universal method of architectonic research of ...culture developed by Kondakov is used. Cultural modernity of Yakutia of the 1990s is studied at three levels: 1) in the “removed” content, it is represented by the active appeal of artists to mythological heroes and archetypes of the past, which contributed to the search for new mythologists and landmarks. 2) activities of the Yakut drama theater, headed by Andrei Borisov. The actual content is filled with ethnosemvoles - Ysyah, national costume, the Olonho epic. e. 3) potential content of modernity manifested in the art of Yakut cinema. Timely organizational aspects of regulating the artistic culture of Yakutia at the beginning of the XXI century have contributed to the development of the cinema industry. The convergent level implies a conditional synthesis - 1990-2020, one of the components, which is the “reinterpretation and modernization of archaic,” taking a conditional and game character (in the work of leading directors of Yakut cinema). There is a “return to one,” but this “one” is interpreted in a different way.
Abstract
The so-called
Materialismusstreit
evolved in the second half of the 19th century as a new genre of popular literature and was carried out as a public debate mainly by German popularisers. In ...the Ottoman context, however, the reception of the
Materialismusstreit
demonstrates how a universalised perception of the West had already become the main frame of reference among secularly educated Ottoman intelligentsia in the course of late Ottoman modernity. This fact not only constitutively shaped their modern discourse on Islam. Moreover, it brought about at the same time fundamental semantic shifts in concepts holding a prominent role within the Islamicate epistemological tradition. Consequently, the entanglement between this abovementioned frame of reference and concepts inherited from a traditional knowledge order resulted in a conceptual rupture with the traditional epistemologies. In an attempt to exemplify the argument, this paper builds on a less-known dispute on materialism between Celal Nuri and Ahmed Hilmi (Filibeli), and shows the transformation in their usage of epistemic concepts such as
ʿilm
,
fenn
, and
dīn
, as well as their reception of the Orientalist Islam discourse. Prior to the analysis of two core primary sources, the first part of this paper elaborates on the theoretical and methodological modalities of making fruitful the intellectual output of late Ottoman modernity for a globally entangled intellectual history.
