Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - In 1950, nearly 300 of Europe's leading artists, philosophers and writers formed an international society intended to end the Cold War. The European Society of Culture was composed of many of Western Europe's best-known intellectuals, including Theodor Adorno, Julien Benda, Albert Camus, Benedetto Croce, Andre Gide, J. B. Haldane, Karl Jaspers, Carl Jung, Thomas Mann, Henri Matisse, Francois Mauriac, Maurice Merleau-Ponty, Jean-Paul Sartre, Giuseppe Ungaretti and Albert Schweitzer, among many others; over the next twenty years it would also include many luminaries from the East, such as Bertolt Brecht, Ernst Bloch, Ilya Ehrenburg and Georg Lukacs. Pioneering the earliest political discussions between intellectuals in Eastern and Western Europe that would serve as a model for the activities of the better-known CCF in its efforts to end communism, the ESC went on to create an informal but powerful, 1,600 member-strong cultural and political network across the world in pursuit of dialogue between the Marxist East and the liberal West, and in pursuit of peace and shared cultural values.Here, in this first, comprehensive history of the SEC's early years, Nancy Jachec demonstrates the influence its members had not only on preventing the isolation of Europe's eastern states, but on enabling the flow of people, publications and ideas from the West into the East, thus playing a vital role in introducing the ideals of human rights and cultural rights in the East in the run-up to the signing of the Helsinki Accords of 1975. She also shows the profound impact that the SEC had on the development of post-colonial theory through the exchanges it organised between European and African intellectuals, directly shaping the expectations statesmen like Leopold Sedar Senghor, revolutionaries like Frantz Fanon, and institutions such as Unesco would have of culture in newly emerging countries.

0. Jackson Pollock - Works, Writings and Interviews. Barcelona 2011. 21 x 28 cm. 160 S. mit 122 meist farb., teils ganzseit. Abb., Bibliographie, Chronologie. Gebunden. In engl. Sprache. Throughout his life, Jackson Pollock wrote very little about his own art or that of others, but in the few completed writings that do remain, and in a few unpublished, undated notes - all of which are gathered in this volume - the concerns are remarkably consistent. In this introduction to Pollock's art and thought, Nancy Jachec traces these and other themes across 120 color reproductions.

First edition, first printing. Publisher's original cream boards with grey title to spine, in dustwrapper. Illustrated with 112 colour images. A near fine copy, the binding square and tight, pages are clean and free from inscriptions throughout. Complete with a near fine dust jacket, that is lightly rubbed to the front panels with fading along the spine and inner edge of the front panel. Features an indepth essay by Nancy Jachec on the artist and his work. A complete collation of writings by Pollock, some of which were previously unpublished.
