New Historicism
New Historicism is a method that reads literary and non-literary texts from the same historical period together. It was coined by Stephen Greenblatt in 1980 and was influenced by Michel Foucault's theory. Unlike old historicism, new historicism gives equal weight to literary and non-literary texts and sees them as constantly informing each other. It places literary texts in the context of historical documents from the same time period rather than seeing history as a background to literature.
Introduction to Modernism
The document summarizes the key developments in literature between 1915-1946 known as the Modern Age. It describes how World War I shattered optimism and faith in social institutions, leading writers to experiment with fragmented styles reflecting the modern world. Modernist works often rejected traditional narratives and forms in favor of stream-of-consciousness, free verse, and techniques from surrealism and imagism to depict psychological realities. Notable movements included the Lost Generation expatriates and the Harlem Renaissance, while authors like Hemingway, Fitzgerald, and Faulkner gained international recognition.

Imagist poems aimed to present vivid, concise images and events with exact language and without excessive sentiment. They were influenced by Japanese haiku poems and sought to capture a single moment or image.

Cubism
Cubism was an early 20th century avant-garde art movement founded by Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque. Cubism involved depicting subjects from multiple viewpoints to represent the subject in a greater context. The artists fragmented objects and reassembled them in an abstracted form rather than using single-point perspective. This allowed for objects to be analyzed from multiple angles and depicted simultaneously on a two-dimensional surface. Cubism revolutionized European painting and sculpture, and inspired related movements in music, literature and architecture.
Structuralism
Structuralism seeks to identify the underlying systems and conventions of language and literature. It views language as a system of signs and social institution with its own unique features, rather than as a naming process connected to external things. The founder was Ferdinand de Saussure, who saw language as a structure that could be studied synchronically. He introduced key concepts like the sign, signifier, and signified. Roland Barthes later applied structural analysis and the study of signs more broadly to culture, helping transition structuralism to poststructuralism.

II New Historicism
This document provides an overview of New Historicism and the work of Hayden White. It discusses key ideas of New Historicism, such as reading texts in their historical context and acknowledging the role of power and ideology.

Church going by Philip Larkin.pptx
The poem describes a man entering an empty church. He observes the interior details like the books, flowers, and organ. An overwhelming silence fills the space. Though not religious, he wonders what will happen to churches when faith disappears. People may avoid them or use them for superstitions.

However, the poem suggests people will always seek meaning and serious contemplation, so churches may continue to draw visitors even in ruins.

1.Futurism a style in history of architecture
Futurism was a 20th century avant-garde movement that originated in Italy in the early 1900s. It celebrated modern technology, youth, violence, speed, industry, and anti-traditionalism. The movement influenced various art forms including painting, sculpture, poetry, theater, music, and architecture. Key principles included a rejection of past traditions and an embrace of the modern industrial world. Major figures included the Italian poet Filippo Marinetti who wrote the seminal Futurist Manifesto of 1909, and the architect Antonio Sant'Elia who designed visions of futuristic industrial cities. While the movement itself is now extinct, Futurism had a lasting influence on later 20th century movements such as Cubism
Week 7 19th Century Art
The 19th century saw the rise of several major art movements:
1) Romanticism focused on emotion over rationality and the individual over society through brighter colors and expressive brushwork.
2) Realism sought to represent subjects truthfully and avoid artistic conventions through works depicting ordinary contemporary life.
3) Impressionism originated among Paris-based artists and used vivid colors and real-life subjects to capture fleeting visual impressions.
4) Post-Impressionism extended Impressionism through thicker paint application and greater emphasis on geometric forms and unnatural colors.
Art
Modernism dominated 20th century literature and architecture, valuing breaking from tradition in representation and form. In music, the British Invasion of the 1960s saw bands like The Beatles and Rolling Stones popularize rock music in the US. British cinema thrived on detective genres based on novels by Christie and Bond films. In art, Vorticism emerged early in the century while pop art developed in the 1950s through figures like Paolozzi and Hamilton. Overall, 20th century English culture made significant impacts worldwide.
Civilization
Romanticism was an artistic, literary, intellectual and ideological movement that originated in Europe in the late 18th century. It emphasized emotion, individualism and glorification of nature over rationalism and classicism. Romanticism influenced literature, music, visual arts and historiography. It reacted against industrialization and rational thought of the Enlightenment. Romanticism was embodied in works using strong feelings, imagination and focusing on individual experiences and emotions over rules and rationality.

2.5 figurative art 1950s
While abstract expressionism dominated the mainstream art world in the 1950s, many American artists continued to work in a figurative style that had been marginalized, such as Edward Hopper, Norman Rockwell, Andrew Wyeth, Fairfield Porter, Milton Avery, and Larry Rivers, whose controversial paintings pushed boundaries through their subject matter and styles. On the west coast, the Bay Area Figurative School emerged, including David Parks and Richard Diebenkorn, while in Chicago, Leon Golub produced tortured figurative images dealing with psychological and political themes.

Earth and Life Science - Minerals and Its Properties
Minerals are naturally occurring chemical compounds that form in pure crystalline structures within the Earth. They originate as igneous rocks cool and crystallize below the Earth's surface. Minerals have distinct chemical compositions and properties including color, streak, luster, hardness, cleavage, diaphaneity, and magnetism. These properties are determined by a mineral's composition and crystalline structure. Color, for example, is usually caused by electromagnetic radiation interacting with a mineral's electrons. Hardness refers to a mineral's resistance to scratching and is measured using the Mohs scale. Cleavage describes a mineral's tendency to break along planes of weaker atomic bonding.
