Any work of art that lacks a sense of aggression can never be a masterpiece." In the years that followed, up until his death in 1944, Marinetti, through both his polemical writings and his political activities, sought to transform society in all its aspects. As Günter Berghaus writes in his introduction, "Futurism sought to bridge the gap between art and life and to bring aesthetic innovation into the real world. Life was to be changed through art, and art was to become a form of life." This volume includes more than seventy of Marinetti’s most important writings—many of them translated into English for the first time—offering the reader a representative and still startling selection of texts concerned with Futurist art, literature, politics, and philosophy. 580 The Roger Griffin ComFas Collection 650 0 Futurism (Literary movement) |zItaly. 650 0 Italian literature |y20th century |xHistory and criticism. 700 1 Berghaus, Günter, |d1953- 856 41 |3Table of contents only |uhttp://www.loc.gov/catdir/toc/ecip0517/2005024282.html 880 |6245 942 |2ddc |cBK 952 |00 |10 |2ddc |40 |6858_000000000000000__91209_MAR |70 |8GEN |9161229OSA |bOSA |d2023-01-26 |eComFas |l0 |o858/.91209 MAR |r2023-01-26 |w2023-01-26 |yBK |cGeneral Stacks 920 01 Pe8lJ8eW 992 01 858_000000000000000__91209_MAR |bRUR_ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ__QYXZQ_DP8 966 |cIn the Research Room
