Paul Scheerbart (1863-1915) veröffentlichte zahlreiche phantastisch-utopische Erzählungen und Romane, die er zum Teil auch selbst illustrierte. Ein weiteres Interessengebiet Scheerbarts war die sich gerade entwickelnde moderne Architektur, wobei ihm ausdrücklich das Bauen mit Glas wie die Verwirklichung seiner Zukunftsvisionen erschien. Der vorliegende Text, eine einzigartige Mischung aus literarischem Essay und visionärer Architekturtheorie, ist Bruno Taut gewidmet, der wiederum seinen spektakulären, 1914 auf der Kölner Werkbundausstellung errichteten expressionistischen Glaspavillon Scheerbart widmete.
