The lecture discusses how genre tells stories and identifies some main themes that emerge from those stories, such as using music to transform suffering into beauty. It provides an example of how early rock music created a sense of community and escape from everyday life. Finally, students are asked to describe a
Post Modernism and Popular culture
This document provides an overview of postmodernism and popular culture. It defines postmodernism as a critique of preceding aesthetics that celebrates tradition dismembering. It discusses how postmodernism emerged in various fields in the mid-1980s. Frederic Jameson views artistic movements like modernism and postmodernism as accompanying stages of capitalism. The document also defines popular culture and discusses four types of popular culture analysis: production, textual, audience, and historical. It concludes that reconstructing works like Frankenstein through a popular culture lens can lead to new interpretations.

The Rise of the United States
The document provides an overview of modern Western culture in the United States from 1900-1960. It highlights key themes such as the country's relationship to Europe, its economic development, and looking both east and west. Notable artistic movements during this period included Regionalism in the 1930s led by artists like Grant Wood and Thomas Hart Benton. Abstract Expressionism also emerged, with gestural abstraction pioneered by artists such as Jackson Pollock and Arshile Gorky's color field abstraction. Videos and images are included to further illustrate these artistic developments.
Abridgement
Mao launched the Cultural Revolution to reignite socialist ideals in China and purge "bourgeois influences" like writers, artists, and teachers. He encouraged young Red Guards and students to "rebel" by closing schools and sending them to attack these groups. The Red Guards traveled freely by train to meet with and worship Mao in Beijing. They destroyed private homes and cultural relics from the past as part of attacking the "four olds." Their actions led to a cruel persecution of teachers and officials, as well as infighting between Red Guard factions that caused many deaths. While the economy was spared in rural areas, factories shut down, causing major problems, and the official death toll from the period was 34,800.

Midterm review
Frederic Jameson is a Marxist theorist who argues that changes in the economic base of society, from industrial capitalism to late capitalism to an information economy, correspond with changes in the cultural superstructure. Specifically, he notes a shift from production to consumption that is exemplified by postmodern art like pop art, which emphasizes commodification and pastiche over authenticity and critique. Jameson views postmodernism as a symptom of late stage capitalism defined by consumption rather than a revolutionary response.

Post Modernism & Post-Modern Music
The document discusses post-modernism in music from the 1930s onward. It describes how post-modernism marked a period of fragmentation and experimentation following modernism, with no single dominant musical style. Composers experimented with new techniques and philosophies, leading to greater diversity and definitions of music. Examples discuss composers like Philip Glass, Gunther Schuller, and George Crumb, who incorporated influences like minimalism, jazz fusion, and unusual instruments and techniques.
Humor and Irony in Response to 9/11
This document discusses how humor, irony, and satire were used in response to 9/11 through examples like The Onion newspaper issue from that time and a comedy routine by David Cross. It argues these forms of expression helped people process conflicting emotions but have been excluded from archives and exhibits about 9/11. Preserving comedy and satire while remaining respectful is important to not create an artificial sense of unity, but some venues like museums have been reluctant to include humorous takes on the events.
Historical periods presentation team b
This presentation discusses important historical events and developments in various art forms during the Modern Period. It begins with an introduction that defines the Modern Period as beginning in the 16th century and including major events like the World Wars and the Modernism movement. The presentation then covers developments in visual arts, drama, music, and dance during this period. For each art form, it discusses defining characteristics, significant artists, relevant timeframes, where the movements originated, and how society was involved.
Wwii throughout american literature
This document discusses American literature after World War II. It provides background on the social and political effects of the war, including McCarthyism and censorship. It then focuses on the Beat Generation writers of the 1950s who rebelled against social conformity through nonconformity, Eastern spirituality, and spontaneous prose. The major Beat writers discussed are Jack Kerouac, Allen Ginsberg, and William Burroughs. The Beat Generation influenced 1960s counterculture and music and helped liberate literature from censorship. Other postwar novels of the time are also briefly mentioned.
Sayre2e ch37 integrated_lecture_pp_ts-150678
This document provides information on art and culture during the 1920s-40s time period. It discusses Kafka's work in Berlin during the 1920s and Brecht's influence on theater. During the rise of fascism, Hitler suppressed modern art in Germany while Stalin used propaganda posters in Russia. The Bauhaus school was closed under Hitler. The Great Depression led to New Deal programs like the WPA which supported artists. In the 1940s, the Holocaust devastated Europe while World War II ended with the atomic bombings of Japan and decolonization movements gained traction. Post-war art bore witness to these events.
minimalism
Minimalism originated in the 1960s as a reaction to abstract expressionism. It emphasizes simplicity, absence of emotion and ornamentation. Key artists include Donald Judd, Frank Stella and Agnes Martin. Minimalist architecture by designers like Tadao Ando focuses on essential materials and relationships with nature. Minimalist design applies clean lines, neutral colors and open spaces to interiors, furniture and products. Photography strives for simplicity while retaining significance, and minimalist music uses repetition and gradual transformation.
