[DOC] Kindergarten Chats and Other Writings by Louis H. Sullivan at Arts-Photography

Description

Il Giornalino di Gian Burrasca egrave; il romanzo per ragazzi piugrave; divertente e piugrave; avvincente di tutta la letteratura italiana. Come nel "Pinocchio"; il protagonista; Giannino Stoppani; rappresenta lindipendenza e loriginalitagrave; di giudizio e di pensiero; ma in un modo piugrave; radicale ed originale.Gian Burrasca interpreta ed affronta il mondo a suo modo; evitando costantemente di seguire le indicazioni; sia morali che pratiche; che gli somministrano gli adulti. Stravolge costantemente sia la visione dei fatti che accadono; sia le aspettative degli adulti; dandoci una visione originale del mondo visto da un ragazzino di 9 anni che diventa presto il sinonimo del ragazzo indisciplinato e che combina scherzi e guai inimmaginabili.Sicuramente nel "Il Giornalino di Gian Burrasca" non vi sono morali ottimistiche o implicazioni etiche sulla convenienza di essere buoni e comportarsi bene; come nel "Pinocchio" od ancora di piugrave; in "Cuore". Giannino Stoppani egrave; completamente a suo agio; anzi felice; ad essere cattivo; anzi perfido; salvo il fatto che il lettore si ritrova a parteggiare per lui e non per le disgraziate vittime dei suoi scherzi.Il libro egrave; illustrato con i disegni dalla prima edizione originale.

Good for study and relaxationBy AnneGood compilation of Sullivans writings.5 of 5 people found the following review helpful. Revised my view of a great architectBy Arch StudentSullivan was a great thinker fighting the customs of his time.Not something I would have said after taking my required survey courses in architectural history. but since reading some of the kindergarten chats my view of Sullivan has been much improved.We were mostly told that Sullivans only contribution worth mentioning was the famous quote "form follows function." and his essay on tall buildings. Its a shame we werent given a true picture of Sullivans contributions.This book contains a strong argument directed toward architects of Sullivans day (early 1900s). To Sullivan. architects at the time largely worked within certain "styles" and they left little room for real creative thought. His argument to leave the styles to the past when they were still culturally relevant and move onward. This sort of thinking lead to the Modernist movement and toward our current built environment.His argument is still applicable however. when we find ourselves at another turn of the century and with the built environment running a little stale (with some stellar exceptions of course).Great read for the young architect and those interested in architecture.
