The Architecture of Constructivism: The Creative Transformation of Aesthetic Codes and Narratives

2018

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Abstract. The architecture of constructivism (functionalism) has a kind of symbolic meaning associated with the modernist project. The authors conducted a study of the architectural avant-garde of Sverdlovsk, Russia which showed that the weak perception of the historical and cultural importance of constructivist buildings and complexes is associated not only with the lack of the people awareness and creativity, but also with the underestimation of their aesthetic value. Meanwhile, the study of space-planning solutions for specific architectural projects reveals really conceptual aesthetics of the buildings. In addition, the study of the social history of constructivist architectural complexes, conducted by the authors, helped us to identify and articulate their cultural and historical significance and to highlight in a creative way the visual perception of these architectural reference markers in the space of the city. The authors also rely on their own experience of the exhibition, publication and sightseeing activities. The analysis of this experience allows the authors to draw some conclusions about the practice of developing and shifting the visual perception of constructivist monuments by the people. The originality of the presented approach to the study of architecture is an appeal to the social history of architecture which helps to enhance its aesthetic value.

“…Nel 1954 Black esponeva la metafora come un conflitto tra una cornice concettuale (frame) e un concetto estraneo (focus). A tali approcci si sono sostituite recenti prospettive che definiscono la metafora come sostituto (Fontanier, 1968;Genette, 1968;Groupe , 1970), come estensione di significato di una parola (Dumarsais, 1988) e come fonte di concetti condivisi (Lakoff, Johnson, 1981;Lakoff, Turner, 1989). Tutte le teorie esistenti sulla metafora espongono il trasferimento di un concetto in un ambito diverso da quello originario.…”

This paper analyses the influence of disability on education, training and career development of disabled people, by presenting a critical perspective on Italian legislation concerning inclusive policies. The starting point is a detailed historical review of the first interventions, along with a critical presentation of cross-cultural perspectivesLo studio ha voluto esaminare l'impatto della disabilità nel percorso universitario e lavorativo della persona portatrice di handicap. Lo scopo della ricerca è stato quello di rilevare i vissuti provati da questi soggetti e sottolineare i bisogni che spesso non riescono ad essere percepibili all'occhio di chi non vive la condizione di svantaggio in prima persona.Ripercorrendo alcune tappe storico-legislative relative all'integrazione del disabile a partire dal 1970 e da un confronto con la legislazione estera (come ad esempio le leggi statunitensi The Carl D. Perkins Vocational Applied Technology Education Act I- III, 1990, 1994, in IRSO, 2000 e le leggi svedesi: log um grunnskòla, 2008; log um framhaldsskòla, 2008), emerge l'avanguardia italiana sull'emanazione delle leggi, malgrado, spesso, sia tangibile l'arretratezza nell'applicazione pratica delle stesse. Riferendosi, ad esempio, all'evoluzione nella storia delle rappresentazioni sociali del disabile, si osserva uno scarso risultato nel superamento della visione negativa e limitata nei suoi confronti. Prevale ancora l'atteggiamento di pietismo, che considera l'inabile come un oggetto fallato, con la conseguenza che "il mondo normale" non riesce a stabilire un contatto proficuo con la persona in difficoltà. Anche quando si parla del disabile come un supereroe, in realtà lo si considera come qualcuno che ha compiuto delle azioni supreme, che vanno al di là delle sue potenzialità, senza prendere in considerazione che le possiede realmente. Quest'inquadramento di pensiero si riscontra anche nei clinici e negli esperti in generale, i quali rischiano di cadere nella trappola di inserire l'inabile in una categoria diagnostica senza considerare la persona in toto.La limitatezza nella percezione delle reali potenzialità può generare una non soddisfacente crescita nell'autonomia e nell'autodeterminazione del disabile, fino ad impedirgli il raggiungimento di una posizione lavorativa che lo gratifichi, offrendogli una giusta realizzazione e che si integri assieme agli altri aspetti della vita. Il lavoro dovrebbe essere, invece, un trampolino di lancio per il raggiungimento della massima soddisfazione in ogni settore. Questo tema è stato fonte di interesse per molti studiosi. Ad esempio, già a partire dal 1980 Donald Super ha proposto un'idea del concetto di sviluppo di carriera come processo di continua e permanente implementazione del concetto di sé confrontato con la realtà (Super, 1980). Arulmani e Nag-Arulmani (2004) hanno implementato un modello utile per superare alcune difficoltà nell'integrare il lavoro all'interno di tutta l'esistenza. Tale modello propone di considerare tutti gli ecosistemi nella progettazio...

As curiosity grows around the potential of the next wave of technology -Linked Data -and early exemplars emerge exploiting its capabilities, the information world finally has the opportunity to exploit fully the richness of relationships between cultural artefacts. This has considerable potential for academics and students seeking to discover the precise nature of the complex relationship between, say, Homer's Odyssey and James Joyce's Ulysses. However, the ramifications extend beyond academia -a network that seamlessly directs the interested layperson from their current interest to works that are related in a defined way has transformative potential for cultural life.To date, there is no openly available or commercialized resource anywhere which surfaces such relationships. Yet cultural life constantly throws up new examples which need to be made more easily discoverable. There is scarcely a cult television programme these days without its obligatory, knowing references to popular culture and other texts, as viewers of The Simpsons will be aware. And observe the vast popularity, in all media, of the glamourous vampire: Edward Cullen of Twilight and his brethren emerge from complex transformations of the original, monstrous Dracula of Bram Stoker's seminal novel.In the pre-web era, there was only one type of information resource for discovering relationships between texts -the citation index. But these indexes covered only those texts with formal integral references, and even then, the precise relationship between the citing and the cited texts occasionally remained unclear.
