He offers a new interpretation of how evolving ways of seeing have characterized and defined modernity." "Koepnick examines the role and representation of window frames in modern German culture - in painting, photography, architecture, and literature, on the stage and in public transportation systems, on the film screen and on television. He presents such frames as interfaces that negotiate competing visions of past and present, body and community, attentiveness and distraction. From Adolph Menzel's window paintings of the 1840s to Nam June Paik's experiments with television screens, from Richard Wagner's retooling of the proscenium stage to Adolf Hitler's use of a window as a means of political self-promotion, Framing Attention offers a theoretically incisive understanding of how windows shape and reframe the way we see the world around us and our place within it."--JacketParallax (Baltimore, Md.)Windows in artArts, German19th centuryArts, German20th centuryArts and societyGermanyHistory19th centuryArts and societyGermanyHistory20th centuryWindows in art.Arts, GermanArts, GermanArts and societyHistoryArts and societyHistory700.943/0904Koepnick Lutz P(Lutz Peter)1087217MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910782603403321Framing attention3692550UNINA
