Paperback. Condition: New. The three plays in this volume are some of George Bernard Shaw's most popular and frequently performed works. They demonstrate the development of Shavian comedy and contain early formulations of his idea of the Superman, an extraordinary individual who catalyzes the evolution of mankind. Arms and the Man (1894) was Shaw's first commercial success and the first public confirmation that he could make playwriting his profession. It is the first of what Shaw called his "pleasant plays',comedies that critique idealism in general rather than specific social problems (as his earlier plays did). Specifically, Shaw undermines the romance of wartime courage, reckless heroism, and nationalist pride among British spectators while using the Serbo-Bulgarian War of 1886 as an exotic veneer. Shaw wrote The Devil's Disciple (1897) for William Terriss, an actor known for his swashbuckling roles who had requested a play that would 'contain every "surefire" melodramatic situation' --mistaken identities, terrifying adventures and last-second escapes, and frequent emotional outpourings.Caesar and Cleopatra (1898) is Shaw's revision of Shakespeare's Julius Caesar and Antony and Cleopatra as well as a fusion of the pragmatism and unconventionality of the heroes of Arms and the Man and The Devil's Disciple into a portrait of jocular, morally serious leadership.

Trade Paperback. Condition: New. Event-Cities 4 is the latest in the Event-Cities series from BernardTschumi, documenting recent built and theoretical projects in the context of hisevolving views on architecture, urbanism, and design. Event-Cities C4 followsdirectly from the work of Event-Cities 3, which examined the interaction ofarchitectural content, concept, and context. This volume takes the interaction astep further, looking at a series of projects for which program or context areinsufficient as a generative conceptual strategy, hence requiring a differentapproach. Tschumi has said, 'Over the past years, there is one word I havealmost never used, except in order to attack it: 'form.'' In Even-Cities 4, Tschumi introduces the 'concept-form' a concept generating a form, or aform generating a concept, so that one reinforces the other. The concept may beprogrammatic, technological, or social. The form may be singular or multiple, regular or irregular. Concept-forms act as organizing devices or common denominatorsfor the multiple dimensions of programs and their evolution over time, and drive theprojects featured in this book.Highlights include master plans for a pair ofmedia-based work spaces and cultural campuses in Singapore and Abu Dhabi; a majormaster plan for a financial center with 40,000 projected inhabitants in theDominican Republic; the innovative Blue Residential Tower in New York City; a groupof museums and cultural buildings in France, Abu Dhabi, Dubai, and South Korea; apedestrian bridge in France; and a 'multi-programmatic' furniture piece, the TypoLounger. The book contains more than twenty of the Tschumi firm's recentprojects, showcasing the most current and forward-looking designs of one of theworld's leading architectural practices. Tschumi introduces the 'concept-form' a concept generating a form, or a form generating a concept. BEAUTIFUL COPY!!!
