If postmodernism depended upon ironic distance, and Critical Design is all about questions, then emotive design runs hotter than this, confronting how designers are using feelings in what they make. ![]() Michael Lowy, "Morning Star: Surrealism, Marxism, Anarchism, Situationism, Utopia" English | 2010 | ISBN: 0292723571, 0292718942 | 176 pages | PDF (conv) | 33.5 MB An expanded edition of revered theorist Michael Löwy's Morning Star: Marxism and Surrealism (previously published in French, Portuguese, Spanish, Italian, and Greek), this masterwork collects the author's essays on the ways in which surrealism intersected with a variety of revolutionary political approaches, ranging from utopian ideals to Marxism and situationism. Taking its title from André Breton's essay "Arcane 17," which casts the star as the searing firebrand of rebellion, Löwy's provocative work spans many perspectives. These include surrealist artists who were deeply interested in Marxism and anarchism (Breton among them), as well as Marxists who were deeply interested in surrealism (Walter Benjamin in particular). Probing the dialectics of innovation, diversity, continuity, and unity throughout surrealism's international presence, Morning Star also incorporates analyses of Claude Cahun, Guy Debord, Pierre Naville, José Carlos Mariátegui and others, accompanied by numerous reproductions of surrealist art. An extraordinarily rich collection, Morning Star promises to ignite new dialogues regarding the very nature of dissent. ![]() Modern Philosophy By Roger Ariew; Eric Watkins 2009 | 405 Pages | ISBN: 0872209792 | PDF | 5 MB [center] ![]() Missing: A World War II Story of Love, Friendships, Courage, and Survival by Kenneth D.
